Excellence
of reciting Salat-‘Alan-Nabi
Sayyiduna Abul Mawahib رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَنْهُ said, 'I saw the
Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى
عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم in my dream. The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم
said to me, 'You will intercede for one hundred thousand people on the Day of
Judgement.' I asked, 'Ya Rasoolallah صَلَّى اللّٰهُ
تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم! How did I gain such a great status?' The
Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ
وَسَلَّم said, 'Because you recite Salat and send its reward to me.'

شَافِعِ روزِ جَزا،
تم پہ کروروں دُرود
دافِعِ جُملہ بلا، تم
پہ کروروں دُرود
صَلُّوا عَلَى الْحَبِيبِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَى مُحَمَّد
Dear Islamic brothers! Before
listening to the Bayan, let’s make good intentions for attaining rewards. The
Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ
وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘نِيَّةُ
الْمُؤْمِنِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ’ The intention of a believer is better
than his action.
(Al-Mu’jam-ul-Kabeer,
vol. 6, pp. 185, Hadees 5942)
Two
Madani pearls
·
Without a good intention, no reward is granted for a good
deed.
·
The more righteous intentions one makes the greater reward
he will attain.
Intentions
of listening to the Bayan
1. Lowering my eyes, I will listen to
the Bayan attentively.
2. Instead of resting against a wall
etc., I will sit in Attahiyyaat position as long as possible with the intention
of showing respect for religious knowledge.
3. I will make room for others by
folding my hands and limbs and by moving slightly.
4. If someone pushes me, I will remain
patient & calm and avoid staring, snapping, and arguing with them.
5. When I hear صَلُّوا عَلَى الْحَبِيبِ ,أُذْكُرُوا الله ,تُوبُوا إِلَى الله
etc., I will reply loudly with the intention of gaining reward and encouraging
others to also recite.
6. After the Bayan, I will approach
other people by making Salaam, shaking hands, and for making individual efforts
upon them.
صَلُّوا عَلَى الْحَبِيبِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَى مُحَمَّد
Intentions
of delivering the Bayan
1. I also make the intention that I
would deliver this speech (Bayan) in order to seek the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and for reaping the rewards.
2. I will deliver my speech (Bayan) by
reading from a book of an authentic Sunni scholar.
3. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ
has stated in the Glorious Quran:
أُدْعُ إِلَى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ
الْحَسَنَةِ
Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: ‘Call towards the path of your Lord
with sound planning and good advice.’
(Part 14, Surah
An-Nahl, verse 125)
And the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم
has said:
بَلِّغُوا عَنِّى وَلَوْ آيَةً
‘Convey from me even if it
is a single verse.’
(Sahih Bukhari, Hadees
4361)
4. I would follow these abovementioned
commandments by calling people towards righteousness and will forbid them from
committing evil deeds.
5. Whilst reciting poetry or speaking
Arabic, English, or pronouncing difficult words, I will focus my attention on
the sincerity of my heart. That is to say, I will avoid delivering my speech
with the intention to impress the audience with my knowledge.
6. I will encourage the people to
travel with Madani Qafilahs, to practice upon the Madani In’amaat and to join
the ‘Ilaqa’i Daura for Nayki ki Da’wat’ (area visit for calling towards
righteousness).
7. I will avoid laughing and prevent
others from laughing as well.
8. In order to develop the habit of
protecting my eyes from sins I will, as far as possible, lower my gaze.
صَلُّوا عَلَى الْحَبِيبِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَى مُحَمَّد
The month of Rabi-ul-Awwal has
arrived; it is the sacred month in which our Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم was born, therefore
in this month especially not only by delivering the Bayan of the different
parts of the blessed life history of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم and the parables of
Milad-un-Nabi صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ
وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم the interest of love for the beloved
Rasool صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ
وَسَلَّم is increased in the heart of the lovers of the beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم,
but also it is further increased by mentioning the beauty of Mustafa صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم.
The topic of today’s Bayan is also the beauty of Mustafa صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم. Let’s attentively
listen to the Bayan about the beauty of Mustafa صَلَّى
اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم.
Parable
about the beauty of the Beloved Prophet ﷺ
When the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم
set out for migrating from Makkah Mukarramah to Madinah Munawwarah with his few
blessed companions, he صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى
عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم passed by the tent of Umm-e-Ma’bad. She
did not know the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ
تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم, but she was very wise; she used to sit by
her tent and serve food etc. to travellers. This blessed caravan asked about
meat and dates so that they could buy some from her, but incidentally at that
time she had nothing. The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى
اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم saw a weak nanny goat
at the corner of the tent and asked: ‘O Umm-e-Ma’bad, what nanny goat is this?’
She humbly said: It does not have milk in its udders and it has never given
birth. The Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى
عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم after reciting blessed بِسْمِ اللهِ moved his blessed healing hand on its
udders and back and made Du’a for it.
The goat then started giving milk;
everyone drank sufficiently and then he صَلَّى اللّٰهُ
تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم left from there. After some time
Umm-e-Ma’bad’s husband came home. Having seen so much milk he surprisingly
asked: O Umm-e-Ma’bad! How have we got so much milk though there is no animal
that gives milk at home? She said: By Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ!
Just now, a blessed person had passed by this place. Abu Ma’bad said: Describe
the appearance of that blessed person to me. Upon this Umm-e-Ma’bad said: ‘I
saw such a person whose beauty was outstanding, whose face was beautiful and
creation was very nice, very attractive and extremely beautiful, his eyes were
dark and big, eyelashes long, his voice was resonant, neck shining, with blessed
thick and full beard. Both eyebrows were thin and touching each other. His
blessed height was also medium, neither very tall which seems bad nor so short
that looks insignificant. If he صَلَّى اللّٰهُ
تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم is seen from a distance, he looks very
awesome and beautiful and when seen from near, he صَلَّى
اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم looks far more
attractive and beautiful. Having listened to the praises of that blessed
person, Abu Ma’bad said: By Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ!
This is that blessed person whose news we have received from Makkah Mukarramah.
I wish to be in his company. If it is in my power, I must fulfill my desire.
And this is what happened, by the
blessed visit of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللّٰهُ
تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم to his house not only blessed the husband
of Umm-e-Ma’bad with the wealth of Islam but also Umm-e-Ma’bad رَضِيَ اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَنْهَا and also bestowed the
status of companionship upon them.

Explanation
of couplet:
O my Master صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ وَسَلَّم! Your creation is
unique with no equal, unparalleled and your blessed life history and exalted
manners have no parallel. That’s why all creation have become your slaves and
are attached to you. Kings also felt proud of being beggars of your streets. O
the soul of my faith! Countless Salawaat be upon you.
(Sharh
Hadaiq-e-Bakhshish, pp. 972)
حُسْنِ و جَمَالِ

آوَج و کمالِ مصطفٰی

صَلُّوا عَلَى الْحَبِيبِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَى مُحَمَّد
