O Allah, shower Your mercy upon Hadhrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) and the family of Hadhrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), as You showered Your mercy upon the family of Hadhrat Ebrahim (Alaihis Salaam), and shower Your blessings upon Hadhrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) and the family of Hadhrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), as You showered Your blessings upon the family of Hadhrat Ebrahim (Alaihis Salaam) in both the worlds. Indeed You are praiseworthy and most glorious.

 

An Ansari razes a building to the ground.

Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) was once passing through a street of Madinah Munawwarah when he saw a building with a dome. He inquired from the Sahaabah, "What is this?" They informed him that it was a new building built by one of the Ansaar. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) remained silent. At another time, the Ansaari who had built that house came to Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) and greeted him with salaam. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) turned his face away from him. He repeated the salaam, but Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) again did not respond. This Sahaabi (Radhiallahu Anhu) was extremely concerned on account of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) not responding to his salaam. When he asked the Sahaabah, he was informed that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) passed by the new building he had constructed and inquired about it. He immediately went and razed the new building to the ground, and did not even inform Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) about his action. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) happened to pass that way again. He inquired: “Where is that building with a dome that I remember seeing the last time we passed by this spot?”

The Sahabah informed him of the Ansaari razing it to the ground, as he felt that it was the cause of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam’s) displeasure. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) at that juncture remarked. “Every structure (which is constructed without a real need) will be a burden for one, except that structure which is absolutely essential.”

The conduct of the Sahaabi exhibited true love and devotion. The Sahaabah could not bear the displeasure of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), and no sooner did they sense the displeasure of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) through any action, they immediately abandoned that action at all costs. (Fazaail Aamaal)

Receiving Seventy Rewards

Hazrat Abdullah bin Amr bin Aas (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma) reported, “Whoever sends salutations upon Nabi (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) once, Allah Ta‘ala and His angels will send seventy mercies and blessings upon him in return of his one Durood. Hence, whoever wishes to increase his Durood should increase it, and whoever wishes to decrease his Durood should decrease it (i.e. if he wants to earn great rewards, then he should increase his Durood).”
