مَامِنْ عَبْدَيْنِ مُتَحَابَّيْنِ فِي اللهِ يَسْتَقْبِلُ اَحَدُهُما صَاحِبَهُ فَيُصَافِحُه ويُصَلِّيَانِ عَلَى النَّبيِّ صَلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہِ واٰلہٖ وَسَلَّمَ اِلَّا لَمْ يَفْتَرِقَا حتّٰى تُغْفَر َذُنُوْبُهُمَامَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْهُمَا وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ ت

Translation: When two people who love each other for the sake of Allah Almighty meet and shake hands, and send Salat upon the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, their past and future sins are forgiven.

(Musnad-Abi-Ya’la, Musnad Anas Bin Malik, vol. 3, p. 95, Hadith 2951)

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                                                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ’ A true intention is the best of an action. (Jami’ Sagheer, p. 81, Hadith 1284)

O devotees of Rasool! Make a habit of making good intentions prior to every work, for a good intention enables a person to enter Jannah. Before listening to the Bayan, make good intentions as well. For example, make intention:

*   That I will listen to the complete Bayan in order to gain knowledge;

*   That I will sit with manners;

*   That I will refrain from laziness during the Bayan;

*   That I will listen to the Bayan for my reform; and

*   That whatever I will listen, I will strive to convey it to the others.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                                                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
