Namaz Ki Ahmiyat

Book Name:Namaz Ki Ahmiyat

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

Sayyidunā Jābir رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ narrates that the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:

مَن اَدَرَكَ شَھرَ رَمَضَانَ وَلَمْ یَصُمْہُ فَقَدْ شَقِیَ وَمَنْ اَدْرَکَ وَالِدَیْہِ اَوْ اَحَدَہُمَا فَلَمْ یَبِرَّہُ فَقَدْ شَقِیَ ،وَمَنْ ذُکِرْتُ عِنْدَہُ فَلَمْ یُصَلِّ عَلَیَّ فَقَدْ شَقِیَ

Translation: Whoever reached Ramadan and did not observe its fasts is unfortunate. The one who has his parents or one of them and did not show good conduct towards them is unfortunate. The one before whom I was mentioned but he did not recite ṣalāt upon me is also unfortunate.[1]

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

The Prophetصَلَّى 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, because a good intention leads a person to Paradise. Before listening to the speech, make good intentions, such as:

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

*   You will sit in a respectful manner.

*   You will refrain from acting lazy during the speech.

*   You will listen to the speech to reform yourself.

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

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
