مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيَّ حِيْنَ يُصْبِحُ عَشْرًا وَحِيْنَ يُمْسِي عَشْرًا اَدْرَكَتْهُ شَفَاعَتِيْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَة

Whoever sends ṣalāt upon me ten times in the morning and ten times in the evening will receive my intercession on the Day of Judgement.^[1]

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Speech intentions

The Messenger of Allah صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:  اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ – “The best of deeds is a sincere intention.”^[2]

1. I will listen to the entire speech to gain knowledge.

2. I will sit respectfully.

3. I will avoid being lazy.

4. I will listen with the intention of self-improvement.

5. I will try to convey what I learn to others.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                                             صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
