Excellence of sending ṣalāt upon the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم

The final Prophet of Allah  صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  said:

مَنْ صَلّٰی عَلَیَّ مِاءَۃً کَتَبَ اللہُ بَیْنَ عَیْنَیْہِ بَرَاءَ ۃً مِّنَ النِّفَاقِ وَبَرَاءَۃً مِّنَ النَّارِوَاَسْکَنَہُ اللہُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَۃِ مَعَ الشُّہَدَاءِ

Translation: “The one who sends ṣalawāt upon me 100 times, Allah Almighty writes between his eyes that he is free from hypocrisy and the fire of Hell, and He will place him amongst the martyrs on the Day of Judgement.”^[1]

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

The Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم    has stated: اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ, “A truthful intention is the best action.”^[2] O devotees of the Prophet, make good intentions before every action, as this can be a means of entering Paradise. Before listening to the speech, make good intentions. For example:

*   You will listen to the entire speech to gain the knowledge of Islam.

*   You will sit in a respectful manner.

*   You will refrain from being lazy during the speech.

*   You will listen to the speech to reform yourself.

*   Whatever you hear and learn, you will try to convey it to others.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
