255. Allah there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of
[all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs
whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can
intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently]
before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of
His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens
and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High,
the Most Great.
Hadith/Benefit
Hadith 1
The Prophet (saw) said "Whoever recites Aayatul Kursi after every Fard Salah,
only death is keeping him/her from entering Jannah (As soon as he/she dies,
will enter Jannah).
NOTE: Scholar has disagreement concerning with the Authenticity of this
hadith however there is no disagreement on reciting a Quran'ic ayah after
Salah.
[Nisai, Ibne Habban, Ibnelsani An Abi Amatah Albahili RA]

Hadith 2
Narrated Abu Huraira (r.a) Allah 's Apostle ordered me to guard the Zakat
revenue of Ramadan. Then somebody came to me and started stealing of
the foodstuff. I caught him and said, "I will take you to Allah's Messenger
(saw)" Then Abu Huraira (r.a) described the whole narration and said: That
person said (to me), "Please don't take me to Allah's Messenger (saw) and I
will tell you a few words by which Allah will benefit you. When you go to your
bed, recite Ayat-al-Kursi, (2.255) for then there will be a guard from Allah
who will protect you all night long, and Satan will not be able to come near
you till dawn." When the Prophet (saw) heard the story he said to me, "He
who came to you at night, told you the truth although he is a liar; and it was
Satan."
