Virtue of sending ṣalāt upon the beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم

The beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:

مَنْ صَلّٰی عَلَیَّ فِیْ یَوْمٍ مِائَۃَ مَرَّۃٍ قَضَی اللہُ لَہُ مِائَۃَ حَاجَۃٍ سَبْعِیْنَ مِنْہَا لِاٰخِرَتِہٖ وَ ثَلاَثِیْنَ مِنْہَا لِدُنْیَاہُ

“Whoever sends ṣalāt upon me 100 times in a day, Allah will fulfil 100 of his needs, 70 of them for his Hereafter and 30 of them for his world.”^[1]

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                     صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Intentions for listening to the speech

The Messenger of Allah صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:

اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ

"The best of deeds is a sincere intention."^[2]

O devotees of the Prophet! Make it a habit to form good intentions before every action, as good intentions can lead one to Paradise. Before listening to the sermon, make the following good intentions:

*     I will listen to the entire sermon to gain knowledge.

*    I will sit respectfully.

*    I will avoid laziness during the sermon.

*    I will listen with the intention of self-improvement.

*    I will try to convey what I learn to others.         

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                     صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
