A Manual of Blessings & Peace on the Prophet Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace)
"A Perfect Companion Book to Prayers for Forgiveness" The greatest source of blessings and mercy for the Muslim and for all of mankind is Muhammad, the Beloved Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace), sent as a Mercy to the Worlds. Muslims, as the most privileged recipients of this mercy, are required to invoke blessings (salat) upon him, and doing so holds great reward; the Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, "Whoever sends one blessing upon me, Allah will send ten blessings upon him" (Muslim). Abu Muhammad al-Marjani says, "Your invoking blessings upon him is in reality praying for yourself since the benefits of it are returning to you."
According to the hadith master, Shams al-Din al-Sakhawi, the benefits of sending blessings on Allah's Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) are numerous: Allah, His angels, and His Messenger send mercy upon the one who invokes blessings. Such a person's wrongdoings are expiated, his good deeds increased and purified, and his status elevated. Whoever makes it his complete regimen by day and night, both his worldly and otherworldly matters are taken care of. He is shown his abode in Paradise before his death, his wealth is increased, and more than one hundred needs of his are fulfilled . . .
This short manual consists of fifty invocations of blessings upon the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace), most transmitted from the Messenger s himself. Set out in vowelled Arabic script, with facing English translation, this handy edition also includes transliteration for ease of use.
