Karamat e Auliya Ke Saboot

Book Name:Karamat e Auliya Ke Saboot

Waking people for fajr salah is a Sunna of the Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. He would awaken others whilst on his way to offer fajr salah.[1] The 2nd  Caliph of Islam, ꜤUmar Al-Fārūq رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ did the same.[2] Islam’s 4th Caliph, ꜤAlī b. Abī Ṭālib رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ would also do this. [3]

We should practice this Sunna of waking others for fajr. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه We will gain countless blessings.

*     By waking others, we can read fajr salah in congregation ourselves.

*     We will gain the reward of spreading the call to righteousness early every morning.

*     Everyone person you wake will be rewarded for offering salah, and you yourself will gain reward for this اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه.

*     In places where you cannot wake others by calling out in the streets, wake them by phoning them.

*     You will have the opportunity to walk early in the morning, and this is beneficial for your health.

*     Another important benefit is that the atmosphere in the masjid will improve. An Islamic brother mentions: “We began waking others for fajr salah in the winter, and the number of worshippers increased so much we had to install canopies in the courtyard of the masjid.” سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه
