The Prophet ﷺ called him astray who does not invoke blessings upon him. It is stated as follows: He who forgets (abandons) to invoke blessings on me, misses the road (leading) to the Paradise- Ibn Mâjah, Sunan, b. of iqâmat-us-salât was-sunnah fîhâ
(establishing prayer and its sunnahs) ch. 25 (1: 294 # 908); Ahmad bin Husayn Bayhaqî, Sunan-ul-kubrâ, 9:286.
Abû Hurayrah (RTA) also reported that the Prophet ﷺ said: If people sit in an assembly in which they do not remember Allah nor invoke a blessing on their Prophet ﷺ , it will be a cause of grief for them (on the Day of Judgement)– Narrated by Tirmidhî in his al-Jâmi‘-us-sahîh, b. of du‘â’ (supplication) ch.8 (5: 461 # 3380), and he graded it hasan (fair) and sahîh (sound).
Ubayy bin Ka‘b narrated: I said, “O Allah’s Messenger, I invoke blessings upon you very frequently. How much of my supplication should I devote to you?” He said, “As much as you like.” I said, “May it be a quarter?” He said, “As much as you like, but if you make an increase in that it would be better for you.” I said, “May it be a half?” He said, “As much as you like, but in case you make an increase in it that would be better for you.” I said, “May these be two thirds?” He said, “As much as you like but if you make an increase in it, it would be better.” I said, “May I devote the whole of my supplication to you (that I make in my prayer)?” Thereupon he said, “In that case you would be free from care and your sins would be forgiven.-Tirmidhî has graded it hasan (fair) and sahîh (sound) in his al- Jâmi‘-us-sahîh, b. of sifat-ul-qiyâmah (description of Doomsday) ch.23, (4: 637 # 2457).
A person came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked: When will the Hour be established, O Allah’s Messenger? The Prophet ﷺ asked: What have you prepared for it? The man said: I have not prepared for it much of prayers, fast or alms, but I love Allah and His Messenger. The Prophet ﷺ said: You will be with those whom you love-Bukhari・has narrated it in his as-Sahih, b. of adab (good manners) ch.97 (8: 123-4 # 192)
Shadd bin Aws (RTA) reported that Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said: The most excellent day is the day of Jumu‘ah (Friday).adam was created on that (day) and on it the Trumpet will be blown and on it will (the people) loose their senses. So invoke blessings on me abundantly on that (day) for your blessings are presented to me. Upon this, a man said: Allah’s Messenger, how are our blessings presented to you while you will decay, i.e. you will be rotten and antiquated?The Holy Prophet ﷺ said: Certainly Allah has made it unlawful (haram) for the earth to eat the bodies of the Prophets- Ibn Majah, Sunan, b. of iqmat-us-salah was-sunnah fih・(establishing prayer and its sunnahs), ch. 79 (1: 345 # 1085); ibid, b. of jan・’iz (funerals), ch. 65 (1: 524 # 1636); Ab・Dawood, Sunan, b. of salah (prayer), 1: 275 (# 1047).
At another place, it is reported that the Prophet ﷺ said: Invoke blessings on me abundantly on the day of Jum‘ah (Friday). Verily it is attended and the angels attend it, and none invokes blessings on me but his supplication is presented to me till he finishes it.
The narrator, Ab・Dard・’ (RTA), asked: (Is it also compulsory for us) even after your demise? The Holy Prophet ﷺ replied: And even after my demise because Allah has forbidden the earth to eat up the bodies of the Prophets. Therefore, a Prophet of Allah is alive (and) is granted provisions (from Heaven). Ibn Majah, Sunan, b. of jan・’iz (funerals) ch. 65 (1: 524 # 1637).
Hasan Basri (RTA) narrates that he heard the Prophet ﷺ saying:Spread plush for me in my grave because earth has not been empowered upon the bodies of the Prophets- Ibn Sa‘d, at-Tabaq -ul-kubr・(2:299); ‘Al・’-ud-D ‘Al・ Kanzul-‘ummal, 15:577 (#42245).
At another occasion Hasan (RTA) reported: Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said, earth has not been allowed to eat the flesh of one with whom the Holy Spirit conversed. Jal ud-Din Suyti, ad-Durr-ul-manthur, 1: 87.
The Prophet ﷺ Receives the Greetings Although angels are commissioned by Almighty Allah to convey the blessings on the Noble Prophet ﷺ , salam is directly received by the Prophet ﷺ . He has categorically and unambiguously said:
Invoke blessings on me, since blessings invoked by you are conveyed to me wherever you may be- Ab・Dawood, Sunan, b. of manasik (rituals of hajj) (2: 218 # 2042); ‘Al・bin Ab・Bakr Haytham・ Majma‘-uz-zaw・’id, 2: 247.
We have mentioned two sayings of the Prophet ﷺ substantiating the same theme in the preceding pages. Ahmad Shah -ud-D Khaf・says in this context as follows: It was the routine of predecessors to invoke blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ . ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar also complied with this routine, and invoked blessings and salutations upon the Prophet ﷺ along with Ab・Bakr and ‘Umar (RTA). Everyone’s blessings are conveyed to him whether he is remote from him. But it is rather better to invoke blessings in person and receive the benign of response from the Prophet- Ahmad Shah-ud-Din Khafi・ Nasim-ur-riyaz, 3: 516.
When I want to talk to Allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
