deprived me of his kind treatment and why he closed his door for me.’ (Ibid)

4. A person reverently said, ‘Ya Rasoolallah صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم! It is mentioned that so-and-so woman offers Salah, keeps Sawm and gives charity all in abundance but there is another thing; she bothers her neighbours with her tongue.’ He صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘She is in Hell.’ They said, ‘It is often mentioned that so-and-so woman performs (Nafl acts of worship like) Salah, Sawm and charity in small number. She gives pieces of cheese in charity and does not bother her neighbours with her tongue.’ He صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘She is in Paradise.’

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Du’a to be invoked at the end of Majlis (gathering)

In the Madani Halqahs of the weekly Sunnah-inspiring Ijtima’ of Dawat-e-Islami today, the ‘Du’a to be invoked at the end of Majlis (gathering)’ will be taught. The Du’a is as follows:

سُبْحٰنَكَ  اللّٰھُمَّ  وَ بِحَمْدِكَ  لَاۤ   اِلٰہَ  اِلَّا  اَنْتَ  اَسْتَغْفِرُكَ  وَ اَتُوْبُ  اِلَیْكَ

Translation: Purity belongs to You and O Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ all the virtues are solely for You, there is no Almighty except You; I seek forgiveness from You and repent to You.

(Sunan Abi Dawood, vol. 4, pp. 347, Hadees 4857, summarised)

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
