Peace be upon you.
Peace be on you. Allah has commanded in Holy Quran: ‘Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet. O ye who believe! you (also) should invoke blessings on him and salute (him) with salutation of peace.’ (Surah Al-Ahzab, chapter 33, verse 57)
1) The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) taught how to invoke blessings on him: The translation:
‘Bless, O Allah, Muhammad and the people of Muhammad, as You did bless Ibrahim and the people of Ibrahim. You are indeed the Praiseworthy, the Glorious.
Prosper, O Allah, Muhammad and the people of Muhammad, as You did prosper Ibrahim and the people of Ibrahim. You are indeed the Praiseworthy, the Glorious.’ (Ref: Muslim)
2) ‘It [Durud i.e. invoking salutation on Holy Prophet (s.a.w.)] should be said with the pupose that God Almighty may send His perfect blessings on His noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) and makes him fountainhead of blessings for all the world and manifests his eminence and splendour in this world and the Hereafter. This prayer should be said with complete devotion, just as when a person prays with complete devotion in time of personal trouble. In fact, this prayer should be made with greater humility and imploring. It should have no personal motives to gain rewards or status. Rather, the pure objective should be to send perfect Divine blessings on the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) and his majesty to shine in this world and the Herafter. This should be the strength of purpose. Constant attention should be given to this night and day until such time that there is no wish left in heart except it.’ (Ref: Writing of Promised Messiah and Mahdi a.s.)
3) ‘The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) is not in need of anyone’s prayers, but therein is a profound mystery. A person who wishes grace and blessings for someone out of personal love, borne of this personal love he becomes an element of that person’s being. And as the One God has bestowed boundless beneficence on the Holy Prophet, those who invoke Durud on the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) and send blessings on him out of personal love, partake of his bounless blessings in accordance wit their own fervour. However, without spiritual fervour and personal love, this beneficence manifests itself very little.’ (Ref: Writing of Promised Messiah and Mahdi a.s.)
