In the name of Allah, the Most-Merciful, the All-Compassionate
"May the Peace and Blessings of Allah be Upon You"
Praise be to Allaah, we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with
Allaah from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allaah
guides will never be led astray, and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray, no one
can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allaah, and I bear witness
that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

Reading Soorat al-Mulk Protects one from the Torment of the Grave
Reading Surat al-Mulk protects a Muslim from the trials of the grave,
but how often does one have to read it? Once a day or more?.
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) said: “A soorah from the Quraan containing thirty verses
will intercede for a man so that he will be forgiven. It is the soorah Tabaarak
Alathi bi yadihil-mulk [i.e., Soorat al-Mulk].”
Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2891; Abu Dawood, 1400; Ibn Maajah, 3786.
What is meant is that a person should read it every night, act in accordance
with the rulings contained in it, and believe in the information mentioned in
it.
It was narrated that Abd-Allaah ibn Masood said: Whoever reads Tabaarak allaahi
bi yadihil-mulk [i.e., Soorat al-Mulk] every night, Allaah will protect him
from the torment of the grave. At the time of the Messenger of Allaah (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) we used to call it al-maaniah (that which
protects). In the Book of Allaah it is a soorah which, whoever recites it every
night has done very well.
Narrated by al-Nasaai, 6/179; classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh
al-Targheeb wal-Tarheeb, 1475.
The scholars of the Standing Committee said:
One this basis there is the hope that whoever believes in this soorah and reads
it regularly, seeking the pleasure of Allaah, learning the lessons contained in
it and acting in accordance with the rulings contained therein, it will
intercede for him [in the Hereafter].
Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 4/334, 335
She is asking about the validity of a duaa to save oneself from the torment of
the grave
The way to protect oneself from the torment of the grave is to fear Allaah by
doing that which He commands and avoiding that which He has forbidden, and to
remember Allaah regularly and read Quraan, especially Soorat al-Mulk, as it is
proven that this will save one from the torment of the grave, by Allaah's
leave. (source-islam-qa)
