The Greatest Rasool صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: The one who recites this Durood upon me, my intercession will become Wajib for him.^[1]

1. Good deeds for 1000 days

جَزَی  اللّٰہُ  عَنَّا  مُحَمَّدًا  مَا  ھُوَ  اَھْلُہٗ

It is narrated by Sayyiduna Ibn ‘Abbas رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا that the Noble Rasool صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated, ‘For the reciter of above supplication, seventy angels write good deeds (in his account) for 1000 days.’^[2]

2. An easy way to spend every night in worship

The Holy Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘If anyone recites the following Du’a three times at night it is as if he has found Layla-tul-Qadr.’ Here is the Du’a:

لَاۤ   اِلٰهَ   اِلَّا  اللّٰهُ  الْحَلِيْمُ  الْكَرِيْمُ

سُبْحٰنَ  اللّٰهِ  رَبِّ  السَّمٰوٰتِ  السَّبْعِ   وَ  رَبِّ  الْعَرْشِ  الْعَظِيْم

Translation: There is none worthy of worship except Allah Almighty Who is ‘حَلِيۡم’ and ‘كَرِيۡم’. Allah Almighty is ‘سُبۡحَان’, Rab of the seven skies and Rab of the magnificent ‘Arsh.

Remaining tips on refraining from wasting water

*   Make a habit of turning the tap off and not wasting a single drop of water whilst using a miswak; rinsing the mouth; gargling; cleaning the nose; wiping the head; and doing khilāl of the beard, fingers and toes.

*   During winter, people let the tap run and wait for the water to become hot before using it for wudu; ghusl; and washing the dishes, clothes, etc. Instead of wasting the cold water, collect it in a container and use it for another purpose.

*   Avoid wasting water when using soap to form a foam to wash your hands or face.

*   After using a bar of soap, place it in a soap dish that does not contain water.

*   Instead of throwing away leftover drinking water, offer it to someone else or make use of it another way.

*   Use a lota to clean yourself after using the toilet. Do not use a bidet spray, as this uses more water and often results in staining the feet.

*   Repair a leaking tap as soon as possible, otherwise water will continuously go to waste.

*   Masjids and madrasahs usually have leaking taps that nobody repairs. Managements must take responsibility and repair them immediately for the betterment of their hereafter.
