The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SallAllahu Alaihi


wa Sallam) has stated, "The very first thing which
Almighty Allah SubHanuhu wa Ta’ala created was
my Noor." [Tafseer Nashyapuri, Page 55, Vol.

The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SallAllahu Alaihi


wa Sallam) has stated, “I was a Noor (Light) by my
creator 14000 years before the creation of Hadrat
Adam (Alaihis Salam)." [Muwahib al-Laduniyah,

under preparation. [Musnad Imam Ahmad, Vol. 8,

7, Page 255, Hadith 2428]

For me the basis of Mawlid e Rasool (SallAllahu


Alaihi wa Sallam) is from Ahadith that Rasool Allah
(SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam) sacrificed animals for

on rejoicing his Birth" [Al-Hawi-lil-Fatawa B. 01, P.
196 | Imam Jalal al-Din al Suyuti]

I am the prayer of my father Sayyiduna Ibrahim

Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam) in the Torah
Sharif was as follows: "O Prophet, Indeed we have

and a clear Warner and the forgiver and protector
(Hirz) of the unlettered and beseecher of
forgiveness on their behalf." [Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol.

believe in it will not be worthy of it. [Kanz al-

I do not say this out of pride. [Musnad Ahmad, Vol.

indeed oppressed me. [Al-Maqasid al-Hasanah,

There in none of you except that I have held you


by your waists preventing you from falling into the
hell-fire. [Mu’jam Kabir, Hadith 7100]

My name in the Qur’an is Muhammad and in the


Bible is Ahmad and in the Torah is Ahid. And I am
called Ahid because I will remove my Ummah from
the fire of Hell. [Tarikh Dimashq al-Kabir, the
chapter on Ma’rifat Asma’ihi, (Dar Ihya al-Turath
al-‘Arabi, Beirut), Vol. 3, Page 21, Al-Kamil Li ibn
‘Adi, the biography of Ishaq bin Bishr, (Dar al-Fikr,
Beirut), Vol.1, Page 331]

Umm al-Darda narrates that I asked Ka'ab Ahbar


Radi Allahu Anhum whether he read the
description of Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬in the Torah. Answering
in the affirmative he said that it was written in the
Torah Sharif that: “Muhammad is the Messenger
of Allah. His name is Mutawakki. Neither is he
harsh nor is he coarse. He never screams in the
markets. He has been given the keys so that
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

through him, Allah can give sight to the blind, give


hearing to the deaf and give the power of speech
to those who are dumb until the people will testify
that, there is no deity except Allah, who has no
partner. That Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬will protect the oppressed
and the weak and save them from being deemed
weak.” [Imam as-Suyuti, Al-Khasais al-Kubra, Vol.

any obstacles)'. [Tarikh Damishq al Kabir (Dar al
Ihya - Berut), Vol 3, Page 296]

with the privilege of Dialogue and cherished me
with his Divine Vision and exalted me with the
Crown of Intercession and the Fountain of

that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (Peace and Blessings
of Allah be Upon Him) positively saw his Creator.
[Ash-Shifa, Vol. 1, Page 159]

consuming the bodies of the Prophets. The
Prophets of Allah remain alive (after their apparent
demise) and they are provided with Rizq
(sustenance). [Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 2, Page 291,

and I am Ahmad, and I am al-Mahi (obliterator) by
whom Allah obliterates Kufr (disbelief), and I am
Al-Hashir (gatherer) at whose feet (i.e. behind
whom) the people will be gathered (on the Day of
Resurrection) and I am Al-'Aqib, the one after
whom there is no Prophet. [Sahih Bukhāri, Sahih
Muslim, Tirmidhi, Imam Malik, Imam Ahmad,
Nasa’i, Hakim, Bayhaqi, Abu Nu’aym and others
from Jubair bin Mut’am Radi Allahu Anhu]

I am Muhammad, the Ummi (not thought to read


and write by any human beings) Prophet, and
there is no Prophet after me. [Musnad Ahmed bin
Hanbal, Vol. 2, Page 172]

I am Ahmad, Muhammad, Hashir, Muqaffi (One


who is sent in the last) and I am Khaatim. [Suyuti,

you. [IbnMajah, Hadith 4067]

Sayyiduna Umar ibn al-Khattaab radi Allahu anhu
who reported that the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu
Alaihi Wa Sallam) has stated: “When (Sayyiduna)
Adam (Alaih Salaam) erred, he pleaded, “O Lord, I
seek Your forgiveness by the medium (Waseelah)
of (Sayyiduna) Muhammad (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa
Sallam).” Allah Almighty asked, “And how did you
know Muhammad?” He replied, “When You
created me with Your Hand and blew soul into me
from Your soul, I raise my head and I saw ‫اَل ِإلاه ِإ اَل‬
‫سول الله‬
ُ ‫ الله ُم اح امد ار‬on the ‘Arsh, so I knew that the only
one whose name You would join with Yours is the
one who is the Most beloved of the creation to
You.” Allah Almighty said, “You have spoken the
truth, O Adam, and had Muhammad not been
there, I would not have created you.” [Al-Khasaais
al-Kubra Li al-Suyooti]

Allah has not made a prophet taste death except


at the location in which He would love to be buried.
[Jami’ Tirmidhi, Vol. 2, Page 329, Hadith 1018]

Hazrat Sahal bin Saad radi Allahu anhu says,


"Once a woman asked the Holy Prophet
(SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam), 'O Messenger of
Allah! I have made this cloak with my own hands. I
have made it for you to wear'. Prophet (SallAllahu
Alaihi Wa Sallam) accepted it. He wore it as kilt.
One of the Companions asked the Prophet
(SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam), 'O Messenger!
Please can you give this cloak to me'?. He replied
'sure, InShaAllah'. After the meeting was over, he
(SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) went away and
came back and gave the cloak to the companion.
People said, "You did not do well. You asked the
Prophet for the cloak and you knew that he
needed it". He replied, "I swear by Allah, I asked
for it so that I can use it as my Kaffan". The cloak
did become part of his Kaffan. [Sahih Bukhari Vol.
2, P.865]

Indeed, the mountain of Uhud loves us and we


love it. [Sahih Muslim, Hadith 3208]

Hazrat Anas (radi Allahu anhu) has stated: “I once


saw the Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam), and
a person was shaving his blessed head. The
companions around him were vigilant not to let a
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

single hair fall onto the ground.” [Sahih Muslim


Sharif Vol.2, p.256]

A Sahabi (radi Allahu anhu) removed some of the


blood of the Messenger of Allah (SallAllahu Alaihi
wa Sallam) (bloodletting). He then went out and
drank all of it. On this, the Prophet (SallAllahu
Alaihi wa Sallam) said to him: “Go! You are freed
from the fire of hell!” [Khasais al Kubra Vol.2
p.252]

Once, the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa


Sallam) went to the home of Hadrat Kabsha radi
Allahu anhu and drank water by placing his
blessed mouth on the leather water-bag
(mashkeeza) of his host. Hadrat Kabsha radi
Allahu anhu cut out this piece and kept it for
blessings. [Mishkaat, Kitaabul-Atimaa, Baabul-
Ashribaa]

Hadrat Ziraa radi Allahu anhu who was present in


the delegation of Abdul-Qais, narrates, “When we
arrived at Madina, we hastily descended from our
rides and began to kiss the hands and feet of the
Holy Prophet Muhammed (SallAllahu Alaihi wa
Sallam). [Mishkaat, Baabul-Musaafaha wal-
Muanaqa, Section 2]

Glad tidings be for that person who has seen me


and brought faith in me. Seven-fold Glad tidings be

for that person who brought faith in me and has


not seen me. [Musnad Imam Ahmad ibn Hambal,
Kitaabul Imaan wal Islaam, Baab fil Imaan bin
Nabiyyi SallAllahu alayhi wa Aalihi wa fadhlin man

after me, who will wish to gain vision of me even if
it means selling their family and property. [Hadith

Mustadrak (4:85) Ahmad in his Musnad (2:417)]

Hadith Sharif on who is on the


“Straight Path” and who is Not.

Hazrat Abdullah Ibn Mas’ood Radi Allahu anhu


narrated: “The Messenger of Allah (SallAllahu
Alaihi Wa Sallam) drew a straight line for us, then
He (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, ‘This is
Allah’s path.’ and then He (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa
Sallam) drew some lines towards right and some
towards the left then said, ‘These are the paths, on
each of them, there is shaitaan inviting towards
him, then He (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) recited:

“And that, ‘This is My Straight Path, so follow it;


and do not follow other ways for they will sever
you from His way; this is commanded to you, so
that you may attain piety.’ ” (Surah Al-An’aam 6,
Verse 153)

Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said to us:


“The Bani Israel was split into 72 sects. My
Ummah will be split into 73. All of them are in
Jahannam except one.” When the Sahaaba asked
him who the correct group was, he answered,
“Those who are on my path (Ahle-Sunnah) and the
path of my Sahaaba (wal-Jamaat).” [Tirmidhi, Vol.
2, Pg. 89; Mishkaat, Vol. 1, Pg. 30; Sharah Fiq‘he-
Akbar, Pg. 5]

Hazrat Abdullah Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu says


that the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa
Sallam) addressed the people at the time of last
Hajj. “O people! I’m leaving behind among you, the
Holy book (Quran) and the Sunnah. If you follow
these in letter and spirit, you will never be strayed.”
[Hakim Al-Mustadrik Book.1 Hadith 318]

One day, Hazrat Abu Dhar Ghifaari radi Allahu


anhu held onto the door of the Holy Ka’bah and
said, “Those who know me, so be it, and those
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

who do not, then I am Abu Dhar, and I have heard


the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi Wa Sallam)
stating:

‘My Ahle Bayt are the likes of the ark of (Prophet)


Noah (peace be upon him); whoever boards it will
attain salvation and whoever got left behind will be
drowned’.” [Al-Mustadrak Vol. 3, p. 15]

Love Allah because of what He gave you from His


blessings; Love me because of the Love of Allah
and Love my AhleBait because of my Love.
[Sunan Tirmidhi, Vol. 5, Page 622, Hadith 3789]

My Sahaabah are like stars whomsoever you


follow, you will be rightly guided. [Mishkat Sharif
Pg. 554]

Everything has a base and the base of Islam is the


love of the Prophet’s Companions and AhlulBayt.
[Kanz al-Ummal, Hadith 32523]

The Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam)


has stated: "One who is kind to any of my family
members will be given reward for it by me on the
Day of Judgment." [Al-Jami as-Saghir, Page 533,
Hadith 8821]
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

The Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam)


has said: I will intercede (specifically) for four
people on the day of Judgement:

1. The one who respected my family;


2. The one who fulfilled their needs;
3. The one who ran and came to their aid when
they were helpless; and,
4. The one who loved them (my family) with (both)
his heart and his tongue.”

Ref: [Kanz al-Ummal, Vol. 12, Page 100, Hadith


34180]

If a man prays standing between the Rukn and


Maqaam and fasts but dies with malice for the
Household of Muhammad ‫ﷺ‬, He has entered Hell.
[Tabarani in Al-Kabir, Vol. 11, Page 142, Hadith
11412]

You should fear Allah as regards to my


companions. Have the fear of Allah! Do not
criticize them after me. Whoever loves them, he
did so out of my love and the one who hates them,
then it is due to bearing hatred towards me and
whoever annoyed them he annoyed me, the one
who annoyed me surely annoyed Allah and
whoever annoyed Allah, very soon, Allah will call
him to account. [Jami’ Tirmidhi, Vol. 5, Page 463,
Hadith 3888]
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

When you see someone belittling my companions


(Radi Allahu Anhum), say: "Allah's damnation be
upon your evil. [Mishkat Sharif, Hadith 6017]

Verily, Allah has chosen me and has chosen my


companions and my in-laws and there will be
people who will slander and disrespect them; If
they (heretics) fall ill, do not visit them; and if they
die, do not join their funeral; and if you pass them,
do not greet them; and do not sit with them; and
do not drink with them; and do not eat with them;
and do not marry them; and do not pray (janazah)
Salah upon them; and do not pray Salah with
them; Run far from them and keep them away
from you so that they may not mislead you and
cause you tribulations. [Sahih Muslim, Vol. 1, Page
10, Abu Dawood, Vol. 2, Page 288, Sunan Ibn
Majah, Page 10, Kashf al-Khifa, Vol. 1, Page 391,
Hadith 1437, Kanz al-Ummal, Vol. 11, Page 540,
Hadith 32529]

Rasoolullah (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) once


raised his hands in dua and said, " O Allah
(azzawajal), grant us barakat in our Syria, O Allah
(azzawajal), grant us barakat in our Yemen."
Those present submitted to him, "Ya Rasoolallah
(SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam)! Make dua for
barakat in our Najd," yet the Prophet (SallAllahu
Alayhi wa Sallam) didn't and continued to
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

supplicate for Syria and Yemen. He was further


reminded several times to do this but didn't. After
some time, he said, "How can I make dua for Najd
when it is the place from which major tribulations
and fitna will occur and a shaitaanic sect will rise?"
[Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 7094]

The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)


said "Nearing Qiyamah there will be a Group of
people who will recite the Holy Quran but it will not
go below their throats. They will leave the true
Religion of Islam as fast as an arrow leaves the
bow. They will be recognized by the shavings of
their entire head and they will move in Groups and
their last Group will emerge with Dajjal, when you
meet them you will discover their nature and
character, the worst of its kind." [Mishkat Shareef
Page 309]

The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)


said, “There will be "dajjals" (fraudsters &
imposters) and liars among my Ummah. They will
tell you something new, which neither you nor your
forefathers have heard. Be on your guard against
them, and do not let them lead you astray.”
[Musnad Imam Ahmed]

Hazrat Abu Dhar (radi Allahu anhu) said, "I was


with the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) one
day and I heard him saying: "There is something I
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

fear for my Ummah more than the Dajjal." It was


then that I became afraid, so I said, “" O Allah’s
Apostle! What is that?" He said; "Misguided and
astray scholars." [Musnad Imam Ahmed]

The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)


said, “The angels of hell will seize such (evil)
scholars before they seize idol worshippers; when
they protest, ‘do you seize us even before you
take idol-worshippers?’ They (angels ) will answer:
‘Those who know are not the same as those who
do not know.’ [Tabarani, Abu Nuaym]

Stay away from those astray from the deen and


keep them away lest they put you in fitna and
make you astray as well. [Sahih Muslim, Vol. 1,
Pg. 10; Mishkaat, Vol. 1, Pg. 20]

Follow the way of the largest group of Muslims!


For, he who deviates from this group will be
thrown into Hell! [Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith 3950]

He who deviates from the largest group of


Muslims, even as much as a hand span, has
himself cut off his connection with Islam. [Abu
Dawud]

Allah will never allow my Ummah to unite upon


misguidance and incorrect beliefs. Allah’s mercy,
blessings and protection are with the largest group

of Muslims. And he who deviates from this largest


group of Muslims will be thrown into Hell. [Sunan

Hadith Sharif on Excellence of


Aquiring Knowledge and Sharing it.

Get up in the morning in a state that you be an


'Alim or a seeker of knowledge. Or one who sits in
the company of an 'Alim or at least loves an 'Alim.
Do not be in the fifth state (i.e. other than the four
mentioned) because you will go astray. - [Majmah
al-Zawaid, Hadith 594]

The Beloved Rasool ‫ ﷺ‬stated: When a man dies,


his deeds discontinue except three:
1. Sadaqah Jariyah i.e. Sadaqah which gains
perpetual reward.
2. The knowledge by which benefit is acquired.
3. A pious child who makes Du’a for him.
[Sahih Muslim, Page 684, Hadith 4223]

Sayyiduna Mu’aaz bin Jabal (Radi Allahu Anhu)


has narrated, the Greatest and Holiest Prophet
(SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) has stated:

Acquire knowledge because acquiring knowledge


for the pleasure of Allah is actually Khauf (fear)
and the worship of Allah repetition of knowledge is
glorification of Allah and teaching an uneducated
person is Sadaqah and teaching family is a
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

proximity i.e., virtue, because knowledge is a


source of distinguishing Halaal and Haraam; it is a
mark of the way of the dwellers of Jannah and it is
a source of relief in the era of corruption; it is a
travel companion; it is a friend in loneliness; it is a
guide in poverty and prosperity; it is a weapon
against the enemy; it is an adornment in the sight
of friends; by virtue of knowledge, Allah grants
success and supremacy to nations observing their
goodness and making them guides and Imams,
then their footsteps and deeds are followed and
their opinions are considered final.

[At-Targhib Wat-Tarhib, Kitab al-Ilm, Vol. 1, Page


52]

A person presented himself before Hadrat Abu


Darda (Radi Allahu Anhu) in the Mosque of
Damascus and said that he had traveled from
Madinah Munawwarah to learn a (particular)
Hadith of Rasoolullah (SallAllahu Alayhi wa
Sallam) from him. He said, "I have heard that you
narrate this (particular) Hadith, so I have traveled
here solely for this reason". Hadrat Abu Darda
(Radi Allahu Anhu) said that he heard the beloved
Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) saying:
"Whoever travels a path in search of knowledge,
Allah makes easy for him the path to Paradise,
and without doubt, the angels, who feel pleased
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

with the act of the knowledge seeker, spread their


wings for him, and without doubt the inhabitants of
the heavens and the earth, even the fish in the
sea, pray for forgiveness for the Islamic scholar,
and the superiority of the scholar over the
worshiper is similar to that of the full moon over
the rest of the stars, and without doubt the
scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets
(Alayhim as-Salaam). Without doubt the Prophets
(Alayhim as-Salaam) do not leave dirhams and
dinars (wealth) as inheritance, but these pure
souls leave knowledge as their inheritance. So
whoever gains this has gained a large share."

For you to go to learn a chapter (from Islamic)


knowledge in the morning is better than 100 Rak'at

Sayyiduna Abu Zar Ghifari (Radi Allahu Anhu)


narrates that the Beloved Prophet (SallAllahu
Alayhi wa Sallam) said to me,
‘‘O Abu Zar! If you learn one Ayah from the Book
of Allah in the morning, it is better for you than
offering 100 Rak’at Nafl, and if you learn one
chapter from Islamic knowledge in the morning,
whether you act upon it or not, it is better for you
than offering 1000 Rak’at Nawafil.’’

Whosoever recites the Quran and learns it and


acts upon it, his parents will be made to wear a
crown of Noor on the Day of Judgment whose
shining will be like the sun and his parents will be

have we been made to wear these dresses?’ It will
be said to them, ‘Because your children have
memorized the Quran.’ [Al-Mustadrak ala al-
Sahihayn lil Hakim, Vol. 2, Page 278, Hadith 2132]

Whoever recited the Qur’an and acts according to


its contents, on the Day of Resurrection his
parents will be given to wear a crown whose light
is better than the light of the sun in the dwellings of
this world if it were among you. So what do you
think of him who acts according to this?! [Musnad
Ahmad, Vol 4, Page 446]

Hadith Sharif on Excellence of


Durood Sharif

Indeed the people closest to me on the day of


judgement will be those who recited the most
Durood on me. [Tirmidhi, Hadith 484, V2, P27]

There is no Muslim who invokes blessings upon


me (salutes me), but Allah returns to me my soul
till I respond to him in return. [Abu Dawood,
Sunan, b. of manasik (rituals of hajj), (2: 218 ,
2041), Ahmad bin Hambal, Musnad, 2:527]

He who invokes blessings upon me once, Allah


showers ten blessings upon him and obliterates
(his) ten sins and elevates him by ten ranks.
[Ahmad bin Hambal, Musnad, 3: 102 & 261;
Muhammad Hakim, al-Mustadrak, 1:550, and
Dhahabi also graded it saheeh (sound).]

Whoever recites one salawat upon the Beloved


Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam), Allah
Almighty and His Angels send seventy blessings
upon him. [Musnad Ahmad, vol. 2, pp. 614]

Indeed Jibra’il Alaihis Salam gave me glad tidings


that whoever recites Durud upon you, Allah
Almighty sends blessings upon him and whoever

sends Salam [salutations] upon you, Allah


Almighty sends peace upon him. [Imam Ahmad,
Musnad, Vol. 1, Page 407, Hadith 1662]

When a Muslim recites salawat upon me, the


Angels continuously pray for him. Now [after
knowing this] it is the person’s desire whether he
recites less or more. [Sunan IbnMajah, pp. 65]

Increase in sending blessings (Salawat) upon me,


for Allah has appointed for my grave an angel; so
that when a man of my ummah sends blessings,
that angel will say to me, “So-and-so the son of so-
and-so has this very hour sent blessings upon
you.” [Musnad al-Firdous, Vol. 1, Page 494, Hadith
2181, narrated by Sayyiduna Abu Bakr as-Siddiq
(Radi Allahu Anhu)]

Once ‘Umar bin Khattab radi Allahu anhu said to


his nation: The supplication is stopped between
the heaven and the earth and nothing of it
ascends, till you invoke blessing (Durood) on your
Prophet. [Tirmidhi related in al-Jami‘-us-saheeh, b.
of salat (prayer) ch.352 (2: 356 , 486)]

The blessed Companion Ubay bin Ka'ab radi


Allahu anhu said that, [aside from my Fardh
obligations, etc.] I will devote all my time in reciting
Durud. Upon this, the Master of Madinah al-
Munawwarah SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam said to
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

him, This will be sufficient to drive away your


worries and shall be redemption for your
sins. [Tirmidhi, Vol. 1, Page 64, Hadith 484,

departing their past sins shall be forgiven. [Abu
Ya’la, Musnad, Dar al-Kutub al-Ilmiyyah, Beirut —

When the day of Thursday approaches, Allah


Almighty sends his angels, who have scribes
made of Silver and pens made of gold. They write
the names of those who recite Durood in
abundance on the day of Thursday and during
Friday night [which begins after sunset on
Thursday]. [Kanz al-Ummal (Dar al-Kutub al-

bright day [Friday], recite Durud upon me in
abundance because your recitation is presented to
me. [Imam al-Haytami, Majmu'a az-Zawa’id, Vol.
2, Page 381, Hadith 3025]

Recite Durood upon me in abundance on Friday


night [which begins after sunset on Thursday] and
the day of Friday because whoever does this, I will
be his witness and intercessor on the Day of
Judgement. [Imam as-Suyuti, Jami as-Saghir,
Page 87, Hadith 1405]

Whoever recites the following Durood eighty times


immediately after Asr Salaat on Friday, before
standing up from his place, Allah will forgive eighty
years of sins and grant him the reward equivalent
to eighty years of worship.” [Hadith, Jami as-
Saghir, Al-Qawl al-Badee]

Allahumma salli ala Muhammadinin nabiyil


ummiyyi wa ala alihi wasalim tasleema

Recitation of Durud upon me is Nur for you on the


bridge of Sirat. Whoever recites eighty Durud upon
me on the day of Friday, eighty years [worth] of his
sins will be forgiven. [Imam as-Suyuti, Jami as-
Saghir, Dar al-Kutubul Ilmiyyah - Beirut, Page 320,
Hadith 5191]
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

Last night I witnessed a strange scene, I saw an


individual from my nation crossing the bridge [of
sirat] by dragging himself and crawling on his
knees. Suddenly the Durud he sent on me arrived
[to his aid]; he stood up straight on the bridge to
the extent that he walked across the bridge. [Imam
at-Tabarani, Mu’jam al-Kabir]

Whoever recites a hundred Durood upon me on


Friday; when he comes on the Day of Judgement,
he will be accompanied by such a Noor that will be
sufficient for all the creation if [it were] distributed.
[Imam Abu Nu'aym, Hilyat al-Awliya, Vol. 8, Page

Ramadan al-Kareem

The Messenger of Allah (SallAllahu Alayka wa


Sallam) has said, “Ramadan, a blessed month,
has come to you during which Allah the Most High
has made it obligatory for you to fast. In it the
doors of Heaven are opened, the doors of Hell are
closed, and the rebellious satans are chained. In it
there is a night (worshipping in it) which is better
than (worshipping for) a thousand months.
Whoever is deprived of its good (and blessing) has
indeed been deprived of all good.” [Nasa’i, Vol 1,
Page 299; Mishkat, Vol 1, Page 173]

would wish if only Ramadan had remained the
whole year. [Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah, Vol. 3, Page

in Ramadan without a valid reason or without
illness cannot make up for it even if he observes
fasts forever. [Tirmidhi, Vol. 2, Page

sincerely; seeking his reward from Allah, his
former sins are forgiven. [Sahih al-Muslim, Vol. 1,

May the person, who finds Ramadan but is not


forgiven before it departs, be disgraced!
[Musnad Ahmad, V3, P61, Hadith 7455]

In Ramadan there is a night (worshipping in it)


which is better than (worshipping for) a thousand

blessing) has indeed been deprived of all good.

Sahari is a blessing Allah has granted you


(therefore) do not miss it. [Sunan al-Kubra, Nasai,
Vol. 2, Page 79, Hadith 2472]

There are three people who will not be held


accountable no matter how much they eat,
provided the food is Halal: (a) A fasting person at
the time of Iftar. (b) The one who eats at Sahari
and (c) A warrior that protects the Islamic border in
the path of Allah. [At-Targhib wat-Tarhib, Vol. 2,
Page 90, Hadith 9]

Sahari is full of blessings, so do not miss it even if


you drink just a sip of water. Allah and His angels
send mercy upon the people who consume Sahari.
[Musnad Imam Ahmad, Vol. 4, Page 88, Hadith
11396]

Sayyiduna Irbad bin Sariyah [Radi Allahu Anhu]

breakfast.’ [Sunan Abi Dawud, Vol. 2, Page 442,

this day?’ They replied, ‘This is a great day in
which Allah saved Musa (Alayhis Salam) and his
nation, and drowned Pharaoh and his people.
Therefore, Musa (Alayhis Salam) fasted on this
day as an expression of gratitude to Allah and so
we too observe fast on this day.’ He (SallAllahu
Alayhi wa Sallam) said, ‘We deserve more than
you to follow Musa (Alayhis Salam).’ So the
Beloved and Blessed Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi
wa Sallam) himself fasted and he ordered his
Companions to do so as well. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol.

It is from the signs of a hypocrite that when he


promises, he does not fulfill it. [Sahih Bukhari, Vol.

Allamah Mufti Sharif-ul-Haq Amjadi (Alayhir


Rahmah) has said: Three signs of hypocrite have
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

been stated in Hadith which belong to saying,


deed and intention. Lie is the disorder of speaking;
misappropriation is the disorder of deed; and
breach of promise is the disorder of intention. The
one who is a hypocrite will surely possess these
three things, but it is not necessary that the person
who possesses these three bad characteristics will
be a hypocrite, therefore if a Muslim possesses
these bad characteristics, it is not permissible to
call him a hypocrite. However! It can be said that
he bears the sign of hypocrisy.

Hadith Sharif on Excellence of Friday

If a man takes bath on Friday; purifies himself as


much as he can with ablution, applies oil from his
oils, or uses any available perfume in his house,
then goes out and, without squeezing between two
men, prays what is prescribed for him, then
remains silent when the Imam speaks (delivers
sermon) his (minor) sins between that time and the
next Friday will be forgiven.” [Sahih Bukhari, Vol.
1, Page 121, Book on the Friday Prayer]

every Muslim who has attained the age of puberty.
[Sahih Al Bukhari Vol.2 Hadith 895]

When Friday comes, the angels stand at the door


of the mosque recording the people in the order of
their arrival. The parable of the first comer is like
the parable of one who sends (to Makkah) a she-
camel for sacrifice; the man who comes next is like
the one who sends a cow for sacrifice, next a
sheep, next like the one who sends a hen, next
like the one who sends an egg. Then when the
Imam stand up (on the Minbar/Pulpit) to deliver the
sermon, they close their sheets and listen to the
remembrance (sermon).” [Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 1,

Muslim gets and asks Allah for anything in that
moment, Allah will definitely grant him. That
moment is very short. [Sahih Muslim, Page 424,

On Friday, look for the moment that is desired from

Adam Alaihis Salam! Until such time you make
Du‘a to Me and have trust and hope in Me, I will
continue forgiving your sins no matter what they
are, and I do not care of anything (i.e. He is
Independent.)" [ Jaami' Tirmidhi, Hadith 3463]

supplication (du'a) is never void of three things:

(1) either his sins are forgiven,


(2) or he benefits in this world,
(3) or virtues are accumulated for him in the
hereafter.

When the servant will observe this reward


(Thawab) accumulated for him in the hereafter in
compensation for that which was not fulfilled in the
Duniyah, then he will desire that none of his
http://madinasharif.wordpress.com

desires should have been fulfilled in the world, but


rather be accumulated for the hereafter. [Sunan
Tirmidhi, Kitab al-Da'waat, Vol. 5, Page 292,

Alayka wa Sallam) replied: 'The best Sadaqah is
when you give charity while in good health and
when you are in possession of wealth, when you
desire to be wealthy and fear of being poor. Do not
wait for the moment when your soul is stuck in the
throat and they say, "Give so much charity to
certain person and give certain person that much,
etc." It is useless to distribute your wealth on your
