The virtues of the Surah al-Waqiah and Surah Mulk are mentioned in the reliable and authentic books of Hadith. It is recorded in Shu’ab al-Iman of Imam Bayhaqi:
عن ابن مسعود قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: من قرأ سورة الواقعة في كل ليلة لم تصبه فاقةً أبدًا، وكان ابن مسعود يأمر بناته يقرأن بها كل ليلة .
Abdullah Ibn Masood (rz) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Whoever recites Surah al-Waqiah every night, he will never be afflicted by poverty. And Ibn Masood (rz) used to order his daughters to read it every night.” (Shu’ab al-Iman 4/120, number 2269).
And the following is reported about Surah Mulk:
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ إِنَّ سُورَةً فِي الْقُرْآنِ ثَلاَثُونَ آيَةً شَفَعَتْ لِصَاحِبِهَا حَتَّى غُفِرَ لَهُ، وهي تَبَارَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ.
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet(may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)said: “There is a Surah in the Qur'an, with thirty verses, which will intercede for its companion (the one who recites it) until he is forgiven. This Surah is: Tabarakal-ladhi." (Ibn Majah Number 3786, Musnad Ishaaq Bin Rahviyah, Number 122).

00:00In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
00:09When the event takes place,
00:12There is no lie in its taking place,
00:15It is low and high.
00:18When the earth is shaken,
00:22And the mountains are crushed,
00:26Then it will be scattered, scattered.
00:34And you will be three kinds.
00:39And the companions of the right,
00:42What are the companions of the right?
00:47And the companions of the left,
00:50What are the companions of the left?
00:55And the forerunners, the forerunners,
01:00They are the ones brought near,
01:07In the gardens of bliss.
01:12A group of the former peoples,
01:16And a few of the later peoples,
01:20On couches laid out,
01:24Reclining on them, facing each other.
01:30They will be surrounded by immortal children,
01:36With cups and vessels,
01:41And a cup of wine.
01:45They will not be shaken from it, nor will they be wasted.
01:52And fruits of that which they choose,
01:59And the flesh of birds of that which they desire,
02:05And fruits of that which they choose,
02:09Like the perfect pearls.
02:14Evil is that which they used to do.
02:21They will not hear therein any ill speech,
02:26Nor any sin,
02:29Except that it will be said,
02:31Peace, peace.
02:35And the companions of the right,
02:38What are the companions of the right?
02:43They will be in a bed of thorns,
02:48And in a bed of thorns,
02:53And in a bed of thorns,
02:58And in a bed of thorns,
03:05And many fruits,
03:10Neither cut off nor forbidden,
03:15And cushions raised high.
03:19We have produced them, if We will,
03:30And made them early,
03:35Early and near,
03:38For the companions of the right,
03:42A group of the first,
03:46And a group of the last.
03:50And the companions of the left,
03:53What are the companions of the left?
03:59They will be in scorching fire and boiling water,
04:03And a shade of boiling water,
04:08Neither cool nor generous.
04:14Verily, before that they were full of pride,
04:21And they used to persist on the great sin.
04:28And they used to say,
04:30When we die and become dust and bones,
04:40Will we be resurrected?
04:44And our forefathers?
04:50Say, Verily, the first and the last
04:57Will be gathered to the appointed time of a known Day.
05:05Then, verily, you, O you who have gone astray,
05:13The deniers,
05:15Will eat from a tree of zinc,
05:24And fill their bellies with it,
05:30And drink from it boiling water,
05:35And drink the drink of the serpent.
05:40This is their descent on the Day of Recompense.
05:45We have created you, so why do you not believe?
05:51Have you seen what you have given up?
05:56Is it you who create it, or are We the Creator?
06:05We have decreed death among you, and We are not to be overtaken.
06:14So that We may change your likenesses,
06:20And create you in that which you do not know.
06:25And you have already known the first creation,
06:30So why do you not take heed?
06:34Have you seen what you have sown?
06:40Is it you who sow it, or are We the sower?
06:50If We willed, We could have made it into debris,
06:56And you would have remained in despair.
07:00Verily, We are to be overtaken.
07:06Nay, but We are to be deprived.
07:09Have you seen the water which you drink?
07:17Is it you who send it down from the spring, or are We the sender?
07:27If We willed, We could have made it bitter,
07:34So why do you not give thanks?
07:38Have you seen the fire which you light?
07:43Is it you who have produced its tree, or are We the producer?
07:54We have made it a reminder and provision for those who remain.
08:02So glorify the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
08:07And I swear by the setting of the stars.
08:14And verily, it is a great oath, if you but knew.
08:21Verily, it is a noble Qur'an
08:28In a Book preserved.
08:33It is not touched except by the purified.
08:40A revelation from the Lord of the worlds.
08:46Is it in this statement that you are belittling
08:53And making your provision that you deny?
09:00Why, then, when it has reached the throat,
09:07And at that time you are looking,
09:14And We are nearer to it than you,
09:18But you see not.
09:23Why, then, if you are of a different religion,
09:31Do you return it, if you are truthful?
09:39But if it is of those brought near,
09:48Rejoice, and a fragrance, and a garden of bliss.
09:57But if it is of those brought near,
10:05Then peace be to you from those brought near.
10:13And if it is of the deniers, the astray,
10:26Then a descent from boiling water,
10:30And the burning of a blazing fire.
10:35Verily, this is the truth of certainty.
10:42So glorify the name of your Lord, the Most Great.
