Harms of Abandoning the Call towards Righteousness

Excellence of reciting Salat-‘Alan-Nabi صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّم

Sayyiduna Imam Fakhruddin Razi عَـلَيْهِ رَحۡمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـهَادِی has stated in Tafseer-e-Kabeer: On the Day of Judgement, when virtues of a Muslim will become lighter on the scale, the Most Renowned and Revered Rasul     صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would take out a piece of paper and place it on the side of virtues which would cause it to become heavier. He will humbly ask, ‘May my parents be sacrificed for you! How handsome you are, and how graceful is your behaviour! Kindly tell me, who are you?’ The Blessed and Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would reply, ‘I am your Prophet, Muhammad (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم) and this is your Salaat (Durood) which you had recited upon me’. (At-Tafseer-ul-Kabeer lil-Razi, vol. 5, pp. 204 Surah Al-A’raf, Taht Al-Ayah 9)

وہ پرچہ جس میں لکھا تھا دُرُود اس نے کبھی        یہ اس سے نیکیاں اس کی بڑھانے آئے ہیں

(Saman-e-Bakhshish, pp. 126)

Dear Islamic brothers! The aforementioned narration distinctly highlights the blessings of Durood Shareef; bringing worldly benefits, it also becomes the source of attaining blessings & favours in the Hereafter. We should also continue reciting Salawaat or Durood Shareef abundantly upon the Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب      صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! Let’s make good intentions for attaining reward before listening to the Bayan. The Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘نِيَّةُ الۡمُؤۡمِنِ خَيۡرٌ مِّنۡ عَمَلِه’ the intention of a believer is better than his action. (Al-Mu’jam-ul-Kabeer, vol. 6, pp. 185, Hadis 5942)

Two Madani pearls

§  Without a good intention, no reward is granted for a good deed.

§  The more righteous intentions one makes the greater reward he will attain.

Intentions of delivering a Bayan

§  Lowering my gaze, I will listen to the Bayan attentively.
