Accept rewards when doing good deeds ; Help those suffering from mental illness or insanity ; Be generous towards others ; Show gratitude towards Allah SWT .

This hadith is about the power of reciting Surat al-Fatihah. It was narrated by Alaqah ibn Sahar at-Tamimi who embraced Islam and then came across some people with a lunatic fettered in chains. He recited Surat al-Fatihah and the lunatic was cured. As a reward he was given 100 sheep which he accepted after being advised to do so by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ who said “Take it, for by my life, some accept if for a worthless chain, but you have done so for a genuine one”. This hadith teaches us that we should not be ashamed to take rewards when we do good deeds as long as they are permissible according to Islamic teachings. It also shows us that reciting Quranic verses has immense power and can even cure physical ailments such as insanity or mental illness. We should therefore strive to recite Quran regularly in order to benefit from its healing powers both spiritually and physically.
