Meaning: "Whoever recites ṣalawāt upon me one thousand (1,000) times in a day will not die until he sees his station in Paradise."^[1]

Dear Islamic brothers! We too should recite ṣalawāt in abundance. Today is Laylat al-MiꜤrāj (the Night of Ascension), and according to one opinion, the Verse of Ṣalawāt—namely:

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ وَ مَلٰٓىٕكَتَهٗ یُصَلُّوْنَ عَلَى النَّبِیِّؕ-یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا صَلُّوْا عَلَیْهِ وَ سَلِّمُوْا تَسْلِیْمًا(۵۶)

Allah and His Angels send blessings upon the Prophet. O you who believe! Send blessings upon him and much salutations.^[2]

—was revealed on this very night. According to this view, this beautiful verse is a gift of Laylat al-MiꜤrāj. Therefore, especially on this night, and throughout your entire life, make it a habit to recite ṣalawāt in abundance while:

1. Standing

2. Sitting

3. Walking and moving about

اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه You will be granted immense blessings through this. May Allah Almighty grant us the ability to act upon this.

اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                 صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Speech Intentions

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