swords; in fact, he sacrificed his life for the sake of Allah Almighty while in the state of Salah. If we call ourselves 'Ḥusaini' yet abandon our Salah, this claim is completely false. To become regular in Salah, to instil within yourselves the spirit of devotion and obedience for Sayyidunā Imam Ḥusain رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ, and to perform other pious deeds, associate yourselves with the religious environment of Dawat-e-Islami and participate in the 12 religious works of the Zaili Halqa.

One of these 12 religious works is to fill out the booklet of ‘Pious Deeds’. In this booklet, 72 pious deeds are provided in a question-and-answer format. Among these is Pious Deed number 21: 'Did you wake others up for Fajr Salah today?' By the blessing of acting upon this pious deed, not only will we become regular in our Salah, but our family members will become regular in their Salah too.

Some Pearls of Wisdom Regarding Respect for the Sādāt (the noble descendants of the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم )

Dear Islamic brothers! Let us attain the privilege of listening to a few pearls of wisdom regarding respect for the Sādāt, meaning the descendants of the Noble Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. First, let me tell you two sayings of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم:

1. He صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated: “Whoever treats anyone from my Ahl al-Bayt well, I will grant him its reward on the Day of Resurrection.”^[1]

2. He صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم also stated: “Whoever does a favour in this world to any of the descendants of (Sayyidunā) ꜤAbd al-Muṭṭalib, it is incumbent upon me to grant him its reward when he meets me on the Day of Resurrection.”^[2]
