عَزَّوَجَلَّ, Who is the Master of all blessings, has blessed His pious people such that if anything from this world becomes linked to them, that also becomes sanctified.

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ Anything linked to the Prophets عَـلَـيْهِمُ السَّلَام, companions of the Holy Prophets عَـلَيْهِمُ الرِّضْوَانْ and pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـه  has the great blessing and is full of grace, i.e. those devotees of Rasool who respect and honour these sacred relics, receive many bounties.

Let’s listen to the definition of holy relics:

What is a holy relic?

Holy relics are those things that are linked to the Prophets عَـلَـيْهِمُ السَّلَام, companions of the Holy Prophet عَـلَيْهِمُ الرِّضْوَانْ or pious predecessors رَحِمَهُمُ الـلّٰـه  and are kept as a means of attaining blessings (Tabarrukaat ka suboot, pp. 2 Summarised). Every single thing that touched the body and was connected with the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is a holy relic. Similarly, anything that touched the body and was connected with the companions عَـلَيْهِمُ الرِّضْوَانْ of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and pious predecessors is also a holy relic (and worthy of respect). (Tabarrukaat ka suboot, pp. 3, 4) Therefore, we must respect and honour everything that is linked to the pious people. Their blessed hair, shirt, jubbah, turban, cup, leftovers, in short, anything that is connected with them, whether it be a straw or a thread from their clothes, respecting and honouring it will be a means of gaining many blessings اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلّ َ.

صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد               صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب

To attain blessings, having complete trust is a condition!

Dear Islamic sisters! To attain blessings from holy relics, you must have complete trust. For example, thinking about whether the blessed hair of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is beneficial or not? By drinking Zam Zam water, do illnesses get cured or not? Do problems get resolved from Ta’wizaat or not? etc. Whilst having these kinds of intrusive thoughts, no specific Islamic invocations or Ta’weez will benefit you at all. The stronger your trust will be,
