The Excellence of Sending Ṣalāt upon the Prophet

The final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:

مَنْ صَلّٰی عَلَیَّ فِیْ یَوْمٍ مِائَۃَ مَرَّۃٍ قَضَی اللہُ لَہُ مِائَۃَ حَاجَۃٍ سَبْعِیْنَ مِنْہَا لِاٰخِرَتِہٖ وَ ثَلاَثِیْنَ مِنْہَا لِدُنْیَاہُ

Whoever sends ṣalāt upon me one hundred times in a single day, Allah will fulfil one hundred of his needs; seventy in the Hereafter and thirty in the world.^[1]

صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد                            صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب

Speech intentions

The final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:

اَفْضَلُ الْعَمَلِ اَلنِّيَّۃُ الصَّادِقَۃُ

A truthful intention is the best action.^[2]

O those who love Allah’s Messenger! Make good intentions before every action, as this can be a means of entering Paradise. Before listening to this speech, make good intentions. For example:

1. I will listen to the entire speech to gain knowledge of Islam.

2. I will sit in a respectful manner.

3. I will not be lazy or inattentive during the speech.

4. I will listen to the speech to reform and better myself.

5. Whatever I hear and learn, I will try to convey to others.
