Hardness of The Heart
Virtue of sending ṣalāt upon the beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم
عَنْ اَبِي بَكْر الصِّدِّيقِ قَالَ: اَلصَّلاةُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللہُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اَمْحَقُ لِلْخَطَايَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ لِلنَّارِ، وَالسَّلامُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللہُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اَفْضَلُ مِنْ عِتْقِ الرِّقَابِ۔
The first Caliph of Islam, Sayyidunā Abū Bakr al-Ṣiddīq رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ said, “Sending ṣalāt upon the Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم removes sins faster than water extinguishes fire, and sending salam upon him is more superior to freeing a slave.” [1]
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
The final Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated, اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ – “A truthful intention is the best action.”[2] O devotees of Allah’s Messenger! Make good intentions before every action, as this can be a means of entering Paradise. Before listening to this speech, make good intentions. For example:
* I will listen to the entire speech to gain knowledge of Islam.
* I will sit in a respectful manner.
* I will not be lazy or inattentive during the speech.
* I will listen to the speech to reform and better myself.
* Whatever I hear and learn, I will try to convey to others.
