Allah - there is no deity 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

There are several virtues for someone who recites Ayat al-Kursi, among them the hadith from Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
مَنْ قَرَأَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ فِي دُبُرِ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ مَكْتُوبَةٍ لَمْ يَمْنَعْهُ مِنْ دُخُولِ الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَمُوتَ

In a hadith narrated by Imam At-Tabarani from Al-Hasan ibn Ali, the Prophet said:
مَنْ قَرَأَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ فِي دُبُرِ الصَّلاَةِ الْمَكْتُوْبَةِ كَانَ فِي ذِمَّةِ اللهِ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ الأُخْرَى
