Parables of Mi’raaj

نَوَيۡتُ سُنَّتَ الۡاِعۡتِكَافِ

Translation: I have made the intention of Sunnah I’tikaaf.

Whenever you enter a Masjid, make the intention of ‘I’tikaaf’ upon remembering it because as long as you stay in the Masjid you will keep obtaining the reward of Nafli (supererogatory) I’tikaafs, and eating, drinking and sleeping will also become temporarily permissible for you in the Masjid.

Excellence of reciting Salat-‘Alan-Nabi صَلَّی اللّٰہ تعالٰی علیہ واٰلہٖ وسلَّم

The Prophet of Rahmah, the Intercessor of Ummah, the Owner of Jannah     صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘O people! Undoubtedly, on the Judgment Day the person who will attain salvation from its terror and accountability amongst you will be the one who would have recited Salat upon me abundantly in the world.’ (Al-Firdaus-ul-Akhbar, vol. 2, pp. 471, Hadis 8210)

چارۂ بے چارگاں پر ہوں دُرودیں صد ہزار             بے کسوں کے حامی و غمخوار پر لاکھوں سَلام

پُرضِیا پُرنور پیاری پیاری داڑھی پر دُرُود              مصطَفٰے کے گیسوئے خمدار پر لاکھوں سلام
