Summary
It is recommended to ask for Allah's mercy when reading verses of mercy and to seek refuge from punishment when reading verses of punishment. Imam al-Nawawi mentions a supplication asking for well-being for punishment verses, while verses of glorification are followed by tasbih and verses commanding istighfar by seeking forgiveness. Specific responses are also reported for Surah al-Tin, al-Qiyamah and al-Mursalat. According to the majority of scholars, these supplications, seeking refuge and tasbih are recommended both inside and outside prayer.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Apabila seseorang membaca ayat al-Quran berkaitan rahmat dan azab, maka disunatkan untuk dia membaca doa memohon rahmat kepada Allah SWT dan meminta perlindungan daripada Allah SWT daripada azab yang dibacanya tersebut.
