Ibn Masud (radiAllahu anhu) said, 'The 'ha-meems' are the embelishments of the Quran
[Hakim, Dhahabi, Ibn Al Mundhir & Baihaqi]

The 'ha-meems' refer to the seven Surahs which have ha-meem at the start.

Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that the messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said, 'Whosoever recites Surah ad-Dhukhan every night, seventy thousand angels will ask forgiveness for him'
[at-Tirmidhi]

Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that the messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said, 'Whoever reads surat Ya-Sin in the night, he will be forgiven. And whoever reads Ha-Meem, the one in which smoke is mentioned, he will be forgiven.'
[Abu Ya'la reported it]

The messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said, Chapters beginning with Ha-Meem are beautiful, fresh, fragrant, splendid mesdows. Whosoever desires to walk around in the mesdows of Paradise should recite these surahs'
[Al-Tadhkar Fi Afdal Al-Adhkar by Imam al-Qurtubi]

NB: The 'ha-meems' refer to the seven Surahs which have ha-meem at the start are: Surahs Ghafir or Al-Mu'min (40), Fussilat (or Ha-Meem) (41), Shura (42), Zukhruf (43), Dukhan (44), Jathiyah (45), Ahqaf (46)
