اَللّٰھُمَّ  صَلِّ  عَلٰی  مُحَمَّدٍ  کَمَا   تُحِبُّ  وَ  تَرضٰی  لَہٗ

Once, a person came to the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Amazingly, the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم made this person sit between himself and Sayyiduna Abū Bakr Ṣiddīq رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ.

The Companionsرَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُم  were surprised as to who this honoured person was. When he left, the Prophetصَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  explained, “When he recites ṣalāt upon me, he does so in these words.”^[1]

6. The ṣalāt of intercession

اَللّٰہُمَّ  صَلِّ  عَلٰی  مُحَمَّدٍ  وَّ  اَنْزِلْہُ  الْمَقْعَدَ الْمُقَرَّبَ  عِنْدَكَ  یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَۃِ

The final Prophetصَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  has stated: “My intercession becomes wājib for whoever recites ṣalāt like this.”^[2]

1. Good deeds for 1000 days

جَزَی  اللّٰہُ  عَنَّا  مُحَمَّدًا  مَا  ھُوَ  اَھْلُہٗ

The Companion ʿAbdullah Ibn ʿAbbās رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا  narrates; the Messenger of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم  stated, “Seventy angels write good deeds for a thousand days, for whoever recites this.”^[3]
