The Knowledge of Shaykh Abd al Qadir al Jilani رَحْمَۃُ اللہِ عَلَیْہِ
يَااَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اِنَّ اَنْجَاكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ اَهْوَالِهَا وَ مَوَاطِنِهَا اَكْثَرُكُمْ عَلَىَّ صَلَاةً فِىْ دَارِالدُّنْيَا
O people! Undoubtedly, those of you who shall attain quickest salvation from the terrors and accountability of the Day of Judgement, shall be those who sent abundant ṣalāt upon me in the world.[1]
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
The Messenger of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ – “The best of deeds is a sincere intention.”[2]
Dear Islamic brothers! Make it a habit to form good intentions before every action, as good intentions can lead one to Paradise. Before listening to the speech, we can make the following good intentions:
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.
