Yadgari e Ummat Per Lakhon Salam

Book Name:Yadgari e Ummat Per Lakhon Salam

To save the Ummah from difficulty, he صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  forbade them from observing fasts of Sawm-e-Wisaal (meaning, keeping fasts continuously without having Iftar).

Keeping the difficulty of his Ummah in mind, he صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  did not make Hajj Fard every year.

Showing affection to Muslims, he صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  commanded to have Raml in only three rounds of Tawaf instead of all rounds.

The Beloved Prophet صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would busy himself in worship the whole night and would weep anxiously for the forgiveness of his Ummah in the merciful court of Allah Almighty to the extent that (due to being in a standing position for a very long time) his blessed feet would often swell. (Siraat-ul-Jinaan, vol. 5, pp. 267, summarised)

Dear Islamic brothers! If we study the blessed life of the Beloved Prophet         صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ , it appears as if he صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  spent his entire blessed life remembering his Ummah. He صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would worship in the night for the forgiveness and salvation of his Ummah. He صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would weep in the isolation of caves. He صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would cry while reciting the Holy Quran. He صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would beseech Allah Almighty when thinking about the sins of the Ummah and the severities of the Day of Judgement.

He صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would weep while listening to the verse of the Holy Quran which contains the mention that every Ummah will be asked to bring a witness and the Beloved Prophet صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  will be made a witness on all people. Sometimes, he صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would spend the whole night reciting a single verse. Sometimes, he صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would stand and bow for a long time in Salah. Sometimes, he   صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would put his blessed forehead in prostration and ask for goodness for his Ummah. He صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  would worship in the night and would make dua for the salvation of the sinful people of his Ummah from the trials and tribulations of the grave and the Day of Judgement.

What is the reason for weeping?

The Beloved Prophet صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ  raised both his blessed hands and made dua
