I swear by this city^[1]

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                                     صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! It is a known principle of the world that when a king favours one of his courtiers, he grants him special rewards that clearly reveal his elevated rank and distinguish him from others. Those honours and ranks that others may also possess are not merely given to his special and chosen courtiers; rather, the king honours them further with many superior distinctions. Similarly, the true King, Allah Almighty, honoured our Beloved Prophet    صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ with more blessings than all of creation, gracing him with His special mercies. In the Holy Quran, Allah has praised His Beloved Prophet       صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  in various places using different noble titles.

1. In Surah al-Fatḥ, verse 29, the Holy Prophet       صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  is called "مُحَمَّدٌ رَّسُول اللہ".

2. In Surah Āl ꜤImrān, verse 33, the Holy Prophet       صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  is referred to as "مصطفے".

3. In Surah Āl ꜤImrān, verse 179, he is called "مجتبیٰ".

4. In Surah al-Jinn, verse 27, he is mentioned by the title "مرتضیٰ".

5. In Surah Banī Isrā'īl, verse 1, he is described as the "perfect servant".

6. In Surah al-Māʾidah, verse 15, he is referred to as "نور".
