Book Name:Nazool e Quran Ka Aik Maqsid
The excellence of sending ṣalāt upon the Prophet
Allah’s final Prophet, our master Muhammad صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:
مَنْ سَرَّہُ اَنْ یَلْقَی اللہَ غَداً رَاضِیا ً فَلْیُکْثِرِ الصَّلاۃَ عَلَیَّ
Whoever wishes to meet Allah whilst He is pleased with them, should send abundant ṣalāt upon me.[1]
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
The Messenger of Allah صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ - “The best deed is a sincere intention.”[2]
O those who love Allah’s Messenger! Make it a habit of good intentions before every action, as good intentions can lead one to Paradise. Before listening to this speech, we can make the following good intentions:
* I will listen to the entire speech to gain knowledge.
* I will sit respectfully.
* I will avoid showing laziness or inattention.
* 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
