Salam-Ahadith

“Bismillahir Rahmannir Raheem”Al-Hamdu Lillaahi Rabbil ‘Aalameen was Salaatu was- Salaamu ‘Alaa Sayidinaa Muhammadin wa Aalihi wa Asabihi Ajma ‘een (tauheed- risalat- ahkirat and islam-iman-ihsan)

THE STANDING (SALAAMI)

When you enter the musjid say salam on rasoolallah ﷺ and read the dua of entering the musjid same when you live the musjid ie with salaam on rasoolallah ﷺ with dua of coming out of musjid (ibn majah sunan 773,bayhaqi 02/442)

(Hisn-al-Haseen)“When any man enters a masjid he should say, ‘With Allah’s name. And Salutations be on His Rasool ﷺ'”

Allama Sakhawi (ra) has narrated from the Hadith of Hadhrat Ali (ra), “Whenever you enter the masjid, recite Durood for Rasoolullah ﷺ” – and has also quoted a Hadith narrated by Hadhrat Fathima (radi allahu ‘anha), the daughter of Rasoolullah ﷺ who said, “Whenever Rasoolullah ﷺ entered the masjid he recited first Durood and Salaam for Hadhrat Muhammad ﷺ (i.e. upon Himself) … “

Once Hadhrath Ka’ab (ra) said to Hadhrath Abu Huraira (ra), “I am telling you two things which you should not forget. One, whenever you enter a musjid recite Salawat for the Holy Prophet (sallalahu ‘alaihi wasallam), and then this Du’aa, ‘O Allah forgive me my sins and open for me the doors of Thy Mercy !'”

If the antagonist is adamant in his objection to the performance of Qiyaam (while reciting Salawat) and maintains that the only posture permitted to recite Salawat is the posture of Jalsa (in Salaah when reciting “Attahiyyaat”) then the only option open to him is to sit at the entrance of the masjid recite the Salawat, and thereafter enter !

Seeing of the Prophet ﷺ by the pious Believers both in a sleeping and a wakeful state is an attested fact in the Shari’a which has been mentioned by the scholars, among them al-Haytami (ra) in his Fatawa Hadithiyya (see Chapter 6.5 for the fatwa)

Allama Ibn Hajar Makki (ra) says, “To stand at the mention of the Prophet’s ﷺ Birth (Mawlid) is something the Ahl as-Sunnah Wa ‘l Jamaa’a have all agreed upon, as being a commendable action. And the Holy Prophet ﷺ says, ‘My followers do not agree upon misguidance and the Hand of Allah is upon the (majority) group; and he who deviates, deviates towards the Fire (of Hell). (Tirmidhi)'” (Mawlidatil Kabeer, Page 85)

Allama Ibn Hajar (ra) states at another place, “It is proven from the Sunnah to stand for others besides the Holy Prophet ﷺ, thus in honour of the Holy Prophet ﷺ it is permissible in the first instance. The proof hereof is the command to stand the Prophet ﷺ gave in respect of Sa’d ibn Mu’adh.”

Imam Nawawi, Imam Baghwi and Allama Khattabi (may Allah be pleased with all of them) state, “To stand for one’s leader, or just ruler, or teacher, is a beloved action.” The acceptance of the repentance of Ka’ab ibn Maalik (ra) is related by himself, “I departed to present myself at the Holy Prophet ﷺ, and when I entered the Prophet’s Mosque I saw him sitting with the Companions around him, whereupon Talha ibn ‘Ubaidullah, on seeing me, STOOD UP, and shook hands with me and congratulated me upon my repentance!” (Mawlidatil-Kabeer, Page 93)

When the Holy Prophet ﷺ was born. These include, “a cluster of stars concentrated over the roof of his house at the time of the birth of the Holy Prophet ﷺ; Angels hoisted flags on holy Baitul Laah and in the east and in the west; the whole atmosphere was filled with the voices of Angels and houries reciting Salutations to him in the STANDING POSITION and congratulating each other and rejoicing with abandon; animals also congratulated each other at the birth of the holy Prophet ﷺ, the Ka’batullaah bowed in a manner of saluting, and the falsehood vanished and the light of truth spread light in all directions.”(Pages 54, 72, 91; Mawaahib-e-Ladunniyah by Imam Qasatalani Page 57; Khasaa’is-e-Kubra by Imam Suyuti Volume 1, Page 45) Whatever the Angels did then was at Allah’s command.

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)
