'Allah has not created in the heavens nor in the earth what is more magnificent than Ayat Al-Kursi.' Sufyan said: 'Because Ayat Al-Kursi is the Speech of Allah, and Allah's Speech is greater than Allah's creation of the heavens and the earth.' It holds great significance in Islam and is recited by Muslims for various spiritual and protective purposes. Ayat al-Kursi, also known as the “Throne verse”, is considered to be the greatest verse in the Book of Allah (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:255).
