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 عَمَلِهٖ’ 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.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! The blessed month of Muharram-ul-Haraam is going on. It has special relation with Ahl-e-Bayt Athaar and Imam-e-‘Aali Maqaam Sayyiduna Imam Hasan Mujtaba and Sayyiduna Imam Husayn رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُم. In this regard, let’s have the privilege of listening to the glory and greatness of Hasanayn Karimayn رَضِیَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُمَا. The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would love both of them very much.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Sayyiduna Anas Bin Maalik رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has stated that the Beloved Rasool
صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was humbly asked, ‘Who do you love more amongst Ahl-e-Bayt?’ He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, ‘Hasan and Husayn (رَضِیَ الـلّٰـهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُمَا).’ The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would ask Sayyidatuna Fatima-tuz-Zahra
رَضِیَ الـلّٰـهُ تَـعَالٰی عَـنْهَا: Bring my children to me. He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم would smell them and cuddle them. (Sunan-ut-Tirmizi, vol. 5, pp. 428, Hadees 3797)
