To Recite Salat-o-Salam Upon the Holy Prophet

Qazi Ayaz (ra) says: “Qiyaam is prohibited whereby somebody well known is sitting and rest of the people are standing. Therefore, in the Hadith of prohibition (from Qiyaam), it is also said, ‘Do not stand as the Ajmees (non- Arabs) stand for their chiefs'”. (Sharah Shamaa’ile Tirmizi)

Imam Nowvi says that it is Mustahab to stand for Ulema, respectful and noble people. (Sharah Shamaa’ile Tirmizi)

Fadalah bin ‘Ubayd reported: Allah’s Messenger ﷺ was sitting amongst us, there entered a person and he prayed as saying, “O Allah! Forgive me, have mercy upon me.” Thereupon Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said, “O worshipper! You have made haste in praying. When you pray and sit (at the end) laud Allah of what He is worthy of and send blessings upon me and then supplicate Him.” The narrator said: Then another man prayed after him and he lauded Allah and invoked blessings of Allah upon the Prophet ﷺ, and the Prophet ﷺ said to him, “O worshipper! Make a supplication and it would be responded.” Tirmidhi related in al-Jai‘-us-saheeh, b. of da‘awat (supplications) ch.65 (5: 516 # 3476) .

Once ‘Umar bin Khattab (radi allahu taalaanhu) said:The supplication is stopped between the heaven and the earth and nothing of  it ascends, till you invoke blessing on your Prophet. Tirmidhi related in al-Jami‘-us-saheeh, b. of salat (prayer) ch.352 (2: 356 # 486).

He who invokes blessings upon me once, Allah showers ten blessings upon him and obliterates (his) ten sins and elevates him by ten ranks. (Nasai)

The one who will be nearest me on the Day of Resurrection will be the one who invoked most blessings on me. Tirmidhi in his Sunan, b. of salāt (prayer), ch. 352 (2: 354 # 484)


Abu Talhah (radi allahu taalaanhu) narrated assigning it to his father:Allah’s Messenger came one day with a gleaming countenance and said, “Jibreel came to me and said,” (Verily your Lord says,) “Muhammad! Does it not please you that one amongst your Ummah should invoke blessingson you and I should bless him ten times and one amongst your Ummah should send greetings of peace to you and I should send ten greetings of peace upon him. Nasai, Sunan, b. of sahw (unintentional mistake), 3: 50.

“Whosoever asks for peace on me ten times, it is as if he has freed a slave” Qadi ‘Iyad, ash-Shifa, 2:653.

“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” (Ibn Majah)

It is revealed that the Prophet ﷺ knows his lovers and listens to them. Once he said to his companions about Hadrat ‘Isa (alayhis salam) that he will return to this world. Then Hadrat Eisa (alayhis salam) will visit Madinah and the Prophet ﷺ said:And when he (‘Isa) will stand beside my grave calling: “O Muhammad!” I will respond to him.Ibn Hajar ‘Asqalani, al-Matalib-ul-‘aliyah, (4: 23 # 3853).

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)
