from the Ummah of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم going into hell and will help him by diverting the Beloved Prophet’s attention to him. It has also become obvious that the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has a dignified and glorious status in the blessed court of Allah Almighty. Surely, this is a great blessing from Allah Almighty.

It should also be remembered here that the Beloved Prophet’s act of pointing towards the ‘Arsh by his blessed hand is for making a request in the blessed court of Allah Almighty; it does not mean that مَعَاذَا لـلّٰـه Allah Almighty will be on the Arsh and the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم will gesture (with his blessed hand) towards Him. Allah Almighty is free from place and direction. His Speech is also free from sound. He عَزَّوَجَلَّ possesses the attributes which befit His Glory.

From this narration it has also been learnt that reciting Salat has many blessings. The way reciters of Salat attain its blessings in this world, اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه on Judgement Day they will have prosperity as well. So, we should also keep reciting Salat in the blessed court of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم all the time. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه by virtue of the blessings of Salat, our worldly life as well as the Hereafter will improve.

From this parable it has also been learnt that the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم loves his Ummah very much. On Judgement Day everyone will be worried about themselves. It is the day about which Allah Almighty has stated in the Holy Quran:

یَوْمَ یَفِرُّ الْمَرْءُ مِنْ اَخِیْهِۙ(۳۴) وَ اُمِّهٖ وَ اَبِیْهِۙ(۳۵) وَ صَاحِبَتِهٖ وَ بَنِیْهِؕ(۳۶) لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مِّنْهُمْ یَوْمَىٕذٍ شَاْنٌ یُّغْنِیْهِؕ(۳۷)

On that Day, man will flee from his (own) brother. And (from his) mother and father. And from (his) wife and sons. On that Day, each one has just one worry, which is sufficient for him (for not caring about others).
