عن أنس بن مالك قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: من صلى علي بلغتني صلاته وصليت عليه وكتبت له سوى ذلك عشر حسنات (المعجم الأوسط للطبراني، وسنده لا بأس به كما القول البديع صـ 239)
Hazrat Anas bin Maalik (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) reports that Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “Whoever sends salutations upon me once, his salutations reach me (via the angels) and I make dua for him. Over and above that, ten virtues are recorded for him.”
Adding ‘Tasleema’ in the Durood
Hazrat Abu Ishaaq Nahshal (rahimahullah), says:
I used to write books on Ahaadith, and whenever I wrote the name of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) then I used to write it in this manner:
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلّٰى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَسْلِيْمًا
Thereafter, I had a dream in which I saw Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) with this book in his hands, looking through it. After looking through the book, Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said, “This is excellent.” (Al-Qowlul Badee’ Pg. 492)
Note: Hazrat Shaikh Moulana Zakariyya (rahimahullah) mentioned that it seems that Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) was pleased with him adding the word ‘tasleema’ in the Durood. (Fazaail-e-Durood Pg. 167)
يَا رَبِّ صَلِّ وَ سَلِّم دَائِمًا أَبَدًا عَلَى حَبِيبِكَ خَيرِ الخَلْقِ كُلِّهِمِ
