The Real Miser

Reciting One Thousand Durood Daily

Abul Hasan Baghdaadi Ad-Daarimi (rahimahullah) says:

I had often seen Abu Abdillah Haamid (rahimahullah) in a dream after his death. I asked him what had transpired with him and he said, “Allah Ta‘ala forgave me and had mercy on me.” I then asked him, “Please inform me of one such deed, which will admit me directly into Paradise.” He replied, “Perform one thousand nafl rakaats, and in each rakaat, recite Surah Ikhlaas one thousand times.” I replied, “But this is indeed an extremely difficult deed to fulfil.” He said, “In that case, recite Durood upon Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) one thousand times every night.” Abul Hasan further says, “This has been my routine since then.” (Al Qowl-ul-Badee’ pg. 259)

يَا رَبِّ صَلِّ وَ سَلِّم دَائِمًا أَبَدًا عَلَى حَبِيبِكَ خَيرِ الخَلْقِ كُلِّهِمِ
