| The Prophet (PBUH) said, "If a man person two Rakahs of Salah without the distraction of any worldly thought, all his previous sins will be forgiven." --------------------------- Prayer is the first matter that will be judged on the Day of Resurrection - if it is accepted then the rest of our actions will be accepted, and if it is rejected then the rest of our actions will also be rejected. --------------------------- The Prophet (PBUH) said, "The five stated prayers erase the sins which have been committed during the intervals between them if they have not been mortal sins." --------------------------- In a Hadith Qudsi (Prophet quoting Allah), the Prophet (PBUH) said, "Out of all the ways through which My servant gets closer to Me Salah is the dearest to Me." --------------------------- The Prophet (PBUH) said, "He who uses the toothpick before Salaat it is seventy times more excellent if he didn't." --------------------------- If a person does the Wazu (ablution) in the correct way, the parts which are washed during Wuzu wouldn't burn in the Hell fire, if the person (God forbid) goes there. --------------------------- The Prophet(PBUH) said, "He who does not ask for favors Allah (SWT) is annoyed with him." --------------------------- The Prophet(PBUH) said, "Du'aa (asking) is the essence of worship." (And we should always make our Du'aa to Allah (SWT) with the intention that whatever we are asking for will be granted.) --------------------------- A believer who makes Du'aa receives one of three things: 1. Either he will quickly have his Du'aa answered, 2. or he will get in the Hereafter, 3. or something bad will be prevented from him equal to the value of his Du'aa. (So no Dwa is ever wasted) --------------------------- The Prophet (PBUH) said, "When a person performs the Salaat at the early designated time, the prayer ascends the sky, lighting it up on the way upward, to the topmost layer of the Heaven. On arrival there, it asks pardon for the person. Thus it will pray till Doomsday saying, "May it please Allah to care for you, as you have cared for me. And when a person performs prayers outside the designated time, the Salaat is ascended the sky showered in darkness. On reaching the sky it is rolled up like bundled clothes, and is used to smite the face of the person who performed it. While the Prayer itself says, "May it please Allah to deny you, as you have denied me." --------------------------- If we were to do a Nafal (voluntary) Salaat, and for whatever the reason, couldnt finish it. A Kaziee (late makeup prayer) must be made for it, even though it wass voluntary to start with it. --------------------------- The Prophet (PBUH) said, "Steadfastness is better that 1000 miraculous deeds." --------------------------- Angels attend Salat at the late night. --------------------------- Once a man came to the Prophet (PBUH) and said I've come to take your life. The man was actually the Angel of Death in the form of a man and the Prophet (PBUH) told him to let me do my Salaat first. Both the Angels of Death and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did their Prayer together, and then the Holy Prophet (PBUH)`s life was taken. (What a beautiful end, to a beautiful life!) --------------------------- Prayers go up, blessings come down. Think about the person whom you love the most. If your most beloved person is on the death bed….and that beloved person demands that you die instead of him/her…will you comply with this demand? --------------------------- O Believers of Islam! Who should be your most beloved person in reality? Of course, Prophet Mohammed (PBUH)! He should be the one whom Muslims must esteem and love the most, for we will not have our Iman completed unless we love him more than ourselves. On his deathbed, Prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him) demanded something too!!! No, he did not ask people to give him their lives. No, he did not ask people to give all of their savings in charity. He did NOT even ask people to build a mausoleum for him! However, his last demand was not just for those who were present with him at that time. It was for the entire Ummah, even for the generations that were to come after him. During the illness that preceded his death, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) continued advising 'Ummah, "(Protect) the prayer, (protect) the prayer, and whom your hands possess (slaves)." |
