مَنْ صَلّٰى عَلَيَّ صَلَّى اللہُ عَلَيْهِ عَشْراً بِهَا مَلَكٌ مُوَكَّلٌ بِهَا حَتّٰى يُبَلِّغَنِيْهَا

Translation: “Allah sends 10 mercies upon the one who recites salat upon me once, and an angel is appointed to convey that salat to me.”^[1]

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

The Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم    has stated: اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ, meaning, a truthful intention is the best action.^[2] O devotees of the Prophet, get into the habit of making good intentions before every action, because a good intention can be the cause of entering Paradise. Before listening to the bayan, make good intentions. For example,

*   you will listen to the entire bayan to gain the knowledge of Islam.

*   you will sit in a respectful manner.

*   you will refrain from laziness during the bayan.

*   you will listen to the bayan to reform yourself.

*   whatever you hear and learn, you will attempt to pass onto others.
