Excellence of Reciting Salat and Salam
ذاتِ والا پہ بار بار درود
بار بار اور بے شمار دُرُود
سر سے پا تک کڑور بار سلام
اور سراپا پہ بے شمار درود
بے عدد اور بے عدد تسلیم
بے شمار اور بے شمار درود
بیٹھتے اٹھتے جاگتے سوتے
ہو الٰہی مرا شعار درود
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Dear Islamic brothers! The more abundantly we recite Salat, the more our virtues will keep growing. The word abundance does not imply that we keep reciting Salat all 24 hours, leaving and ignoring the rights of the family members as well as other tasks. If, along with fulfilling the rights of the people, we get privilege to recite Salat then it will be a great achievement indeed. But it is not possible for everybody. For our ease, the pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی have given us different figures regarding the abundance of recitation of Salat. If we choose any of the figures and start the recitation of Salat accordingly, اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, we shall gain blessings in abundance. Let’s listen to some blessed sayings of the pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی.
Quoting the blessed saying of a blessed saint رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, ‘Allamah Yusuf Nibhaani رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated, ‘The minimum figure of abundance of Salat is 350 daily in a day and 350 during each night.’
(Afdal-us-Salawat ‘ala Sayyid-is-Sadaat, pp. 30)
Sayyiduna Imam ‘Abdul Wahhab Sha’rani رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has narrated the saying of some ‘Ulama in Kashf-ul-Ghummah: The minimum figure to achieve
