(Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 255)
The following is the translation of Ayatul Kursi into English:
“Allah—there is no God 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.”
(Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 255)

(Jami` at-Tirmidhi, 2878)
Some of the key benefits of reciting Ayatul Kursi include protection from evil, increased blessings, divine favour, success, and ease of sleep.

The verse is often recited to create a spiritual barrier against jinn and harmful things. Muslims believe that the recitation creates a protective shield that prevents these forces from causing harm to you.
Many Hadiths highlight the protective power of Ayatul Kursi. One of them states:
"Whoever recites Ha Mim Al-Mu'min - up to - To Him is the return (40:1-3) and Ayat Al-Kursi when he reaches (gets up in) the morning, he will be protected by them until the evening. And whoever recites them when he reaches the evening, he will be protected by them until the morning."
