Durood-o-Salaam Kay Fazail

Book Name:Durood-o-Salaam Kay Fazail

So after the Ghusl a letter fell (as advised). People read the letter and then I kept it on his chest. The letter had something special that the way it was read from the front, similarly it was read from the back.

I asked my mother. What was the deed of my maternal grandfather? My mother replied: ‘کَانَ اَکْثَرُ عَمَلِہٖ دَوَامُ الذِّکْرِمَعَ کَثْرَۃِ الصَّلٰوۃِ عَلَی النَّبِی’ i.e. He always used to recite Salat-‘Alan-Nabi abundantly along with the Zikr [remembrance] of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. (Sa’adat-ud-Daarayn, pp. 152)

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you noticed! Reciting Salat-‘Alan-Nabi abundantly is such a good deed due to which the letter of freedom from Hell came in front of the people’s very eyes.

We should also get into the habit of reciting Salat-‘Alan-Nabi more and more all the time whether we are sitting, standing or walking. Many books have been written on the excellence of Salat and Salam. Islamic scholars, from time to time, also mention its virtues and benefits.

Remember! The ink of a pen may dry-out, the words of a speech may also come to an end, but even then the excellence of reciting Salat and Salam upon the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم cannot be fully mentioned, because the act of reciting Salat-‘Alan-Nabi is such a great act which Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ Himself and His angels carry out as well.

In Ayah 56 of Surah Al-Ahzaab part 22, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has stated:
