upon the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم:

اَللّٰہُمَّ اجْعَلْ شَرَائِفَ صَلَوٰتِکَ وَ نَوَامِیَ بَرَکَاتِکَ وَ رَافِعَ تَحِيَّتِکَ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدِکَ وَ رَسُوْلِکَ الْخَاتَمِ لِمَا سَبَقَ وَ الْفَاتِحِ لِمَا اَغْلَقَ

Translation: O Allah! Send Your most honourable blessings, Your ever-increasing blessings, and Your most exalted greetings upon Muḥammad, who is Your chosen servant and Messenger, the seal for what has preceded (i.e. the Final Prophet), and the opener for what has been locked (i.e. the solver of difficulties).^[1]

Explanation: O the being through whom the door of prophethood was opened, meaning the one who was granted the crown of prophethood before everyone else, as it is stated in a Hadith: وَآدَمُ بَیْنَ الرُّوْحِ وَ الْجَسَد  (And I was a Prophet when Adam was still between his soul and body).^[2] Countless blessings be upon you. And O the being upon whom messengership was concluded, as you were sent as the Final Prophet and the Final Messenger, millions of greetings be upon you.

The Messenger of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:  اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ – “The best of deeds is a sincere intention.”^[3]
