Sayyiduna Ali’s Devotion to Beloved Rasool صَلَّی اللّٰہ تعالٰی علیہ واٰلہٖ وسلَّم

Along with Demands of Devotion to Beloved Rasool

نَوَيۡتُ سُنَّتَ الۡاِعۡتِكَافِ

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

Whenever you enter a Masjid, upon remembering, make the intention of Nafl I’tikaf because as long as you stay in the Masjid you will keep obtaining the reward of Nafl (supererogatory) I’tikaf, and eating, drinking and sleeping will also become 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 صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘O people! Undoubtedly, on the Judgement 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.’
