Almighty meet one another, shake hands ‘ويُصَلِّيَان عَلَى النَّبيِّ صَلَّی اللّٰہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ واٰلہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  اِلَّا لَمْ يَفْتَرِقَا حَتّٰى تُغْفَرَ ذُنُوْبُهُما مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْهُمَا وَمَا تَأَخَّر’ and recite Salat upon the Nabi (صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم), then their past and future sins are forgiven before they separate from each other.’ (Musnad Abi Ya’la, vol. 3, pp. 95, Hadees 2951)

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! In order to attain the pleasure of Allah Almighty and attain reward, let’s first make good intentions. The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘نِيَّةُ الۡمُؤۡمِنِ خَيۡرٌ مِّنۡ عَمَلِہٖ’ The intention of a believer is better than his action.

(Al-Mu’jam-ul-Kabeer, vol. 6, pp. 185, Hadees 5942)

Two Madani pearls

…٭Without a good intention, no reward is granted for any good deed.

…٭The more righteous intentions one makes, the greater reward he will attain.

Intentions of listening to the Bayan

 -1Lowering my eyes, I will listen to the Bayan attentively.

 -2Instead of resting against a wall etc., I will sit in Attahiyyaat position as long as possible with the intention of showing respect for the religious knowledge.

 -3When I hear صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب, اُذۡكُرُوا اللّٰه, تُوۡبُوۡا اِلَي اللّٰه, etc., I will reply loudly with the intention of gaining reward and heartening the ones who utter it.

 -4After the Bayan, I will approach other people myself by making Salaam, shaking hands, and making individual efforts upon them.
