All praise is due to Allāh, our Creator, Nourisher and


Provider. Peace and blessings be upon all the Prophets and
upon the last and final messenger Muḥammad ‫ﷺ‬. Peace
and blessings upon his companions who accepted and
propagated Islam to the entire world.

This book is a translation of of Mukhtaṣar Ḥizbul A’aẓam.

abridged the original in the present form for those busy in
tableegh and ta’leem activities, so they to derive benefit

The manner of translation of Islamic texts depends on the


target audience. This book is for practicing Muslims who
have a good understanding of Islamic terminology. I have
tried to retain as much of the original Arabic words that can
not be translated without losing their Islamic spiritual
significance.

The days of the English week are not named, as they are
named after various pagan idols of Europe. I felt that a book
of du’ās should not have name of idols above it (although
no longer honoured as such and are permissible to use as
per the fatwas of the Muftis). I have given the first day as

Jumua’h and the remaining days of the week are simply


numbered.

Finally, many people participated in the preparation of this


work. I request the readers to remember myself and them in
your du’ās and that Allāh accept this work to be solely for
his sake.

Biography of Hadhrat Sufi Iqbal 1

Hadhrat Sufi Muḥammad Iqbal was born in 1926 in the city


of Hoshyarpur, district Jalandhar, India. He attended
government school until the 10th grade. While in 6th grade,
he developed a keen interest in Deen and joined a madrasah
on his own. His eagerness pleased his teacher who not only
inspired him but also provided him with the appropriate
books to continue his studies. After completing the 10th
grade, he refused to continue with regular schooling and
instead went to Maulāna Abul Ḥasan A’li Nadwi, also
known as A’li Mian, at Nadwatul U’lamā. Unfortunately,
he had to leave because of his constant illness. Maulāna
A’li Mian recommended him to attend Darul Uloom
Deoband and gave him a letter for Maulāna Izaz A’li Sahib.
His illness continued even at Deoband and so, once again,
he had to leave.

He did bai’ah with Shaikhul Hadith Maulāna Muḥammad


Zakariyya in 1945. In 1947, he settled in Pakistan because
of his family. In 1963, he migrated to Madina Munawwara
where, in 1970, he started a madrasah for young children
named Madrasah Khalilia. He was very close to Shaikhul
Ḥadīth who gave him khilafat in Jan 1968; he was so
devoted to his sheikh that he would spend every Ramadān
with him in Saharanpur. He maintained good relationships
with many of the notable scholars including Maulāna Yusuf
Dehlavi, Maulāna A’li Mian and Maulāna Manzoor
Naumani ‫ر مِحَ ُه ُم اهلل‬.

He breathed his last breath on July 16, 2000 in Madīna

Referencing of Aḥādīth

For this Mukhtasar Hizbul A’azam (urdu version of which


the English before you is a complete translation) the
translation of Maulāna Badr e A’alam and the referencing
of the ḥadīth from Fathul A’aaz Al-Akram by Maulāna
Abdul Rasheed Nu’maani were relied upon and wherever
necessary primary ḥadīth texts were cross referenced for
peace of mind. For the virtues of the various du’ās the
books of Hadhrat Sheikh ul Ḥadīth Maulāna Zakariyya and
the footnotes of Hizbul A’azam by Meer Sayyid Jameel
Muhaajir Madani were utilsed. May Allāh give them the
highest levels of His pleasure and Paradise. And whoever
helped in any way in the production of this work may Allāh
reward them and have mercy on them in this world and the

Introduction to Mukhtaṣar Ḥizbul A’aẓam

Reality of Du’ā

Du’ā is I’bādat (worship). It is narrated in a hadīth that


there is nothing more beloved to Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬than du’ā. In
another ḥadīth it is narrated that Rasulullāh ‫ ﷺ‬after
mentioning the virtues of I’bādat said that “O slaves of
Allāh! Be particular about making Du’ā.” It is also narrated
that when somebody does not ask Allāh Ta’āla, Allāh
Ta’āla is displeased with him.”

Ḥizbul A’aẓam

The chosen slaves of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬are those who make the


pleasure of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬the purpose of their lives i.e. they
exert themselves in the worship of Allāh ‫ﷻ‬. These special
ones make efforts to do all actions valuable and weighty in
the sight of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬by doing it all purely for His sake (i.e.
their actions are not for anyone other than Allāh and there is
no trace of personal desire). To achieve these qualities of
Ihsān (spiritual perfection) and Yaqeen (conviction of faith)
they turn to the righteous u’lamā and special chosen slaves
of Allāh, who themselves have achieved these qualities and
have an understanding of how to achieve these qualities in
the light of the Qurān and Ḥadīth. As Allāh has stated “If
you don’t know, ask the ones who know”. So, these blessed
souls will then rectify their Aqaaid (beliefs) and Aamaal
(actions) i.e. they will encourage and teach them the pillars
11

of Islam such as salaat, fasting, etc. They will teach the


ḥalaal (permissible) and ḥarām (impermissible). The
knowledge of this is compulsory on every individual.
Furthermore, they will be taught certain nafl (non-
obligatory) worship and such azkaar (pl. of zikr –
remembrance of Allāh) and Aadaab (Islamic manners)
through which internal purification will be achieved and
love for Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬will become stronger. So, through this
continuous remembrance and Ikhlaas (sincerety) they will
be continuously pleasing Allāh ‫ﷻ‬.

Among the various Islamic practices that are recited and


read is du’ā. Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬has mentioned that it is the
“essence of worship” Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬encouraged making of
du’ā. He mentioned many virtues and etiquettes of du’ā.
The Habeeb (beloved) of Allāh; Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬was
himself described as one that was constantly in a state of
du’ā. That is why we find in the Ḥadīth collections a huge
treasure of du’ās that Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬made himself, du’ās
that he taught to his nation or du’ās narrated from his
blessed companions who were blessed with the Prophet’s
‫ ﷺ‬companionship and who loved every sunnah of
Rasulullah ‫ﷺ‬.

May Allāh reward the u’lamā of this umma who compiled


collections of du’ās from reliable sources for the Umma.
12

One of these collections is Ḥizbul A’aẓam.2 Sheikhul


Ḥadīth Maulāna Muhammed Zakariyyah ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ ‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬used to
recite Ḥizbul A’aẓam as part of his daily routine.

Mukhtaṣar Ḥizbul A’aẓam

During Ramadaan of 1401 Hijri, in Stanger, South Africa,


Maulāna Abdul Hafeez Makki and I were present in a
gathering of Hadhrat Aqdas Sheikhul Ḥadīth Maulāna
Zakariyya ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫ م‬He ordered us to prepare an abridged form
َ ‫ر‬.
َ
of Ḥizbul A’aẓam for those people who are involved in
madrassah teaching, tabligh and other Islamic works.3
However he did not specify any principles or method for
the abridgment. After much mashwara with various U’lamā
this lowly servant selected very concise and easy du’ās and
also re-arranged the order of those du’ās. Also at the

2
Ḥizbul A’aẓam was compiled by Mullah Ali Qaari Rahmatullah Alayh.
He divided the collection into seven parts, one for each day of the
week in order to facilitate regular recitation by person who desire to
earn the blessings of Almighty Allāh. Imam Jazuli’s Dalaail ul Khairat
was derived from Ḥizbul A’aẓam.

Hadhrat Sheikh Maulāna Zakarriyya ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬


َ ‫ َر‬wanted those engaged in
3

deeni occupations to be also making du’ā on a regular basis. But as


Ḥizbul A’aẓam is lengthy, they might not have the time due to their
other services to Islam. So, he requested a shorter version, so they also
will get the blessings of Dua on a continuous basis.
13

beginning, middle and end of each daily reading such


salawāt on Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬were added that praise
Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬with his noble character and qualities from
the book of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬and the Sunnah. By reading these
salawāt a person may increase the love, respect and
reverence for the being of Rasulullah ‫ﷺ‬. To love
Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬himself is conditional for Imān and without
Imān and love no deed or imitation of Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬has
any value. 4

4
Translator: Regarding reciting salawaat, the wordings of which are
not from the Sunnah, Maulana Khalil Ahmad Saharanpuri ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬said: “It
is desirable according to us to send blessings upon the Messenger of
Allah ‫ ﷺ‬abundantly and this is among the best of acts and the most
beloved of recommendations, whether it is through the recitation of
the Dala’il (al-Khayrat) and the Awrad of Salawāt composed in that
book, or with other texts. However, it is better according to us (to send
blessings) with whatever wording is authentically established from the
Messenger of Allah ‫ﷺ‬. However, if one sends blessings using other
than what was narrated from the Messenger of Allah ‫ ﷺ‬then that
will not be devoid of merit and it will deserve the glad tidings of (the
hadith) “Whosoever invokes one blessing upon me, Allah blesses him
ten times.” (al-Muhannad)
14

How to read Mukhtaṣar Ḥizbul A’aẓam

If the following guidelines are revised regularly the


importance and value of making du’ā will increase in the
heart Insha-Allāh

1. Make du’ā by keeping the purpose of du’ā, its haqeeqat


(reality), its aadaab (manners) and conditions in the
forefront of the mind, so du’ā is seen as a means of asking,
not simply something to be recited. As for the purpose and
reality of du’ā, it was mentioned earlier that du’ā is the
essence of worship. For that reason, du’ā should be
considered an Ibaadat and it is also the fulfilment of the
order of Allāh ْ ‫“ اُ ْد ُع ْو م ْن‬Make du’ā to me”. Therefore, du’ā
should not be simply seen as a way of achieving our needs.
For the layman to make du’ā for fulfilment of needs is
permissible and is also rewarded. This does not negate
ikhlaas. However, for the saalikeen (those who are only
seeking nearness to Allāh), du’ā is the expression of their
servitude to Allāh. Through du’ā they present themselves in
the court of Allāh showing their utter poverty, absolute
dependence on Him and make their slavery apparent before
Him. Through du’ā they acknowledge his right to be
recognised and obeyed as Rabb (Lord) and Maalik (Owner
of everything). This is the reality of du’ā. This is why it is
referred to as the essence of Ibaadat, even though what
caused the person to make the du’ā was some transient need
of this world.
15

2. At the time of du’ā, one should express a condition of


desperation, restlessness, humiliation and neediness. Even
if one has to make pretence. The true condition of du’ā is
not in our control but we can at least make the appearance
of du’ā. That is why Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬has encourages us with
these words ‫إ ْمن ل َ َّْم تَب ْ ُك ْوا فَتَبَا ُك ْْو‬ “If you can not weep than
pretend to weep”. That is make the appearance of weeping
before Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬for the sake of Allāh ‫ﷻ‬.

When an appearance of humiliation and neediness is


expressed before Allāh then Allāh showers his slave with
inner spiritual and external gifts. As Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬says:
“Sadaqah is given to the Fuqaraa (destitute)”5. This is the
secret of why sick or hard-pressed people’s du’ās are more
readily accepted.

3. To have conviction that all virtues that are promised for


each du’ā will be fulfilled. The greatest virtue (in the Qurān
and Ḥadīth) of sunnah du’ās is that we gain the barakah of
matching the wording of Rasulllah ‫ ﷺ‬and be able to
imitate Rasulullah ‫ﷺ‬. Those that imitate the Sunnah, they
become beloved to Allāh ‫ﷻ‬

5
As we are ordered to give to the destitute, so does Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬give to
those who ask like the destitute.
16

“Say that if you love Allāh then follow me and He will love
you and forgive your sins.”6

Can there be a greater virtue than this?

If we also keep in mind virtues of each du’ā, this will


create delight, enthusiasm and ikhlaas whilst we make those
du’ās.

4. We should not miss any du’ā which is part of our regular


routine because His being Lord and we being his slaves is a
continuous condition. Allāh is always Rabb (lord) and
slaves are always in need of their Rabb.
5. Du’ās should not simply be recited but should be read
whilst one is beseeching and imploring Allāh ‫ﷻ‬.
Sometimes, the translation should be read so it is known for
what need the du’ā is being made. When one reflects on
these du’ās, yaqeen on the oneness of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬is created,
our own helplessness and neediness becomes apparent,
purification of the inner-self takes place, love for virtue and
aversion to vice increases. It is only natural that a thing a
person desires from the heart will induce him to make
practical effort to achieve that thing.
6. The etiquettes of du’ā, special places and times when du’ā
is more readily accepted such as the 16 places in Makkah
Mukarramah are written in the book Ḥisn Ḥaseen. We
should read them every now and then. For the sake of
brevity, I have not enumerated them here.

6
Quran: Aal Imraan 31
17

7. By the kindness of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬if a slave of Allāh has desire to


make abundant du’ā. Then du’ās should not be restricted to
the daily hizb. One should try to read the whole book or as
much as possible. When you are being given the ability by
Allāh to be able to present your needs before Him, then
these moments should be treasured.

To read more than the usual amount on certain days such as


Ramadhaan or on holidays and to temporarily increase the
amount and then to leave it is not against being steadfast.
However, it is better that one should reduce the daily
amount but do it on a more continuous basis.

8. Every week, one or two translations of du’ās and their


virtues should be memorised. Then after five-time salaat
and at various other times, these du’ās should be repeated,
so the Faydh (grace) and spiritual state associated with that
du’ā is achieved. The gist and the essence of the meaning of
the du’ā should be coupled with emotion in the heart.

Note:-

In the beginning, the previously mentioned points should be


actively remembered. However, over time all of these
matters will become natural and such an aptitude will be
acquired that whenever these du’ās will be made that their
virtues and meanings will instinctively and easily be at the
fore front of the mind. This is due to divine help.

❖ Here Surah Fatiha is recited with the intention of praising


Allāh and Du’ā. Therefore, a menstruating woman or a
person who is junub (requiring a ritual bath) can also read
it.7 However, they should not touch the writing in the book

❖ It has been narrated in a ḥadīth that Surah Fatiha is cure for


all ailments.8 In reward, this surah is more virtuous then
two thirds of the Qurān.9 The mashaaikh have written that
those who read this surah with imaan and yaqeen, it is
shifaa (cure) for all sicknesses. Whether they be related to
deen, dunya, inwardly spiritual or outwardly.
❖ Within ‫اك ن َ ْستَعمْي‬

of shifaa and all goals being achieved is that it contains
pure tawheed (oneness of Allāh).11

you ordered the believers to confer peace and blessings

O the One whose status is exalted! You have yourself said
“"Verily, Allāh and His angels shower blessings on the

This noble salāt contains a Qurānic verse which explicitly

Prophet ‫ﷺ‬. It is clear that this action is important and

righteous and the seal of the Prophets; Muḥammad your
slave, messenger, the imam of virtues, the leader of good

needs, and that will cleanse us from all evil, and that will
raise us to high positions, and that will cause us to reach
all our desired righteous aims, in this world, and after
death. Verily, You have power over all things

This ṣalāt is a means of fulfilling needs.The Mashaaikh


have stated from experience that it safeguards one from
calamities if it is read seventy times after salaatul I’sha. Its
reading has been tried and tested and found to be beneficial.

Reading ṣalawāt abundantly on the day of


Jumuah

Sayyidunā Abū Huraira narrated that whoever confers


the following blessings eighty times before getting up from
his place after Aṣr prayers on Jumuah, eighty years of his
sins will be forgiven and he will be granted the reward of
eighty years of worship:

‫الل ه ُه ََّم َص َّ مل عَ ٰٰل ُُم َ ََّم مْدنمْ النََّبم َّمي الُ َّمم َّمي َوعَ ٰٰل آل م مه َو َسلمَّ ْم تَ ْسلمي ْ ًما‬
O Allāh, confer blessings upon Muḥammad, the unlettered
prophet, and upon his family and confer worthy salutations
(upon him).

In a narration of Dāruquṭnī ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ ‫م‬


َ ‫ َر‬this ṣalāt is up to and
including ‫النََّبم َّمي الُ َّمم َّمْي‬. Hafiz Iraqi ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬has declared this ḥadīth
hasan (a good chain of transmission). In Al-Jaami al-
Sagheer this ḥadīth is narrated by Hadhrat Abu Hurayra
has been graded as hasan (sound).

Hadhrat Sheikhul Ḥadīth Maulāna Zakariyya’s ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬


َ ‫َر‬
regular routine on the day of Jumuah after Asr prayers was
to read these ṣalawāt 80 times. He used to also encourage
his attendants to do likewise.
41

There are numerous virtues of doing ṣalawāt in abundance


on the blessed day of Jumuah. Hadhrat Abu Darda
narrates that the Messenger of Allāh ‫ ﷺ‬said, "Confer
blessings upon me abundantly on Jumuah, for it is a day in
which the angels are present. Nobody confers blessings
upon me except that his blessings are presented to me as
soon as he has conferred them." Abu Darda asked, "O
Messenger of Allāh, will this happen after you have passed
away too?" The Noble Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬replied, "Verily, Allāh
has forbidden the earth from decomposing the bodies of the
Prophets ‫الس ََلم‬
ََّ ‫مم‬
ُْ ‫عَلَيْه‬. The Prophet of Allāh is alive and granted
sustenance.”

It is narrated that from Rasulullah ‫“ ﷺ‬Confer blessings


upon me abundantly on Jumuah, for the blessings of my
followers are presented to me every Jumuah.” i.e. the
ṣalawāt are presented immediately as in the previous ḥadīth.

It has also been narrated on the authority of Hadhrat Umar


that the Noble Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬said, “Confer blessings upon
me abundantly on the luminous night and the luminous day
(the night and day of Jumuah), for your ṣalawāt are
presented to me and I supplicate and seek forgiveness on
your behalf.”

Ibn Qayyim ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬


َ ‫ َر‬said, “The virtue of conferring blessings
on Jumuah is because Jumuah is the leader of all days and
42

the Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬is the leader of all the Prophets ‫الس ََلم‬
ََّ ‫مم‬
ُْ ‫عَلَيْه‬.
Thus, Jumuah has a strong bond with conferring blessings
upon the Noble Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬which no other day has.”

For these reasons those who read Ḥizbul A’aẓam regularly


should not simply rely on the ṣalawāt contained therein.
The preceding virtues should be kept in mind and one
should be eager to read ṣalawāt excessively. Whether it be
Salāt Ibraahimiyyah (as we read in 5 times prayers) a
hundred times or read the after Asr prayers ṣalāt
excessively or ‫ي‬ ْ‫اّلِل َع ٰٰل ال نََّبم َّمي الُ َّمم َّم‬ َ
ُ ‫( َو َص َّل ه‬this ṣalāt has been
narrated in ḥadīth) five hundred times. Also the 40 ṣalawāt
and salaam narrated from sound ḥadīth narrated in Fadhaail
Durood should also be read. The reader will be rewarded
for ṣalawāt and for reading forty Ahaadeeth.

family of Muḥammad just as you blessed Ibrāhīmand the
family of Ibrāhīm. Indeed You are the Praiseworthy,
Majestic.

This ṣalāt is narrated in Bukhari Shareef. It is the most


authentic and virtuous ṣalāt. Its recital should be done with
diligence within the five times prayers and at other times as
well. Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬taught this ṣalāt himself and Allāh ‫ﷻ‬
sent Jibril to teach this ṣalāt.24 The mashaaikh have
stated that ‫م‬
ََّْ ‫ اَلل ه ُه‬is to call Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬by all his beautiful names
‫ َ م‬are two such blessed names of Allāh ‫ﷻ‬
ٌْ ‫ِحي ٌد ََّّممي‬
at once and ‫د‬
ْ ْ
that all of His attributes are contained therein, whether they
be his attributes of beauty or attributes of majesty. Therfore,
while reading this ṣalāt the meaning of these names of
Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬should be reflected upon. By means of this the
spiritual benefits of the ṣalāt will be great.

It is sunnah to recite this du’ā while going to the masjid or

hidayat (true guidance) and elucidation of the truth which is
connected to every part of the body. For example seeing the
truth, listening to the truth, thinking about the truth etc...
and to stay away from all misguidance because all baatil
(falsehood) is darkness and on the Day of Judgement this
spiritual light will act as an actual light. The anwaar (plural
of nur) of the perfect auliyaa’s (friends of Allāh) can be
perceived by people blessed with spiritual insight.

O Allāh! Place not our calamaties in our religion, and let

(Rahmatullah Alayh) writes in his book entitled Tanqid Matin pages 84


and 85:

“It is our belief and research that the leader of all messengers and Seal
of the prophets, Sayyiduna Muhammad (Allāh bless him and give him
peace) is bashar (human) as well as nur; as per his genus and person he
is bashar (human), but as per his attribute and guidance he is nur
(light). Due to him, the dark world experienced light, the darkness of
kufr and shirk was dispersed and the surface of earth was lit with the
rays of iman and tawhid. Those who were wandering in the darkness of
carnal desires and lusts and were falling in the deep pits of disputes and
contentions started marching ahead on the bright path of peace and
guidance. None of the Muslims can deny this reality. But, if he is
considered nur in a sense that – Allāh forbid – he is denied to be bashar
and human being all together, then we will oppose it tooth and nail as it
is against the nusus (sources of Islam i.e. Quran and Sunnah).”

prescence of Rasulullah ‫ﷺ‬. And he said ‫ َوا ُذن ُ ْوبَاه‬, ‫( َوا ُذن ُ ْوبَاه‬O my
sins, O my sins)42 two or three times. Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬said to
him to recite the above du’ā. The man said this and the
Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬said to him, “Say it again.” The man repeated
it then the Prophet said to him, “Say it again.” The man did
it and the Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬said to him, “Arise for, indeed, Allāh
has forgiven you.”43

42
The man was overcome and saddened by his state.

Mukhtasar Salatul Tasbeeh

In the book Hayaatul Muslimeen of Hadhrat Hakeemul


Ummah Maulāna Ashraf A’li Thanwi ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ ‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬there is
attached a small section written by his student the late Mufti
of Pakistan Mufti Shafee Usmani ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ ‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬called Najaatul
Muslimeen. This section contain a’amaal selected from
reliable aḥādīth by means of which our past and future sins
will be forgiven. These a’amaal are so easy and light that
even a person with minimal motivation and free time can
easily perform them. One of these a’amaal is mukhtasar
(shortened) salatul tasbeeh. The well-known procedure of
salaatul tasbeeh is what is narrated in books such as
Fadhaail Zikr of Hadhrat Maulāna Muḥammad Zakariyya
‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫ م‬Hadhrat Shaikh used to have this a’amal as part of
َ ‫ر‬.
َ
his Jumuah day routine. It involves reading the third
kalimah 300 times. However, in some other ḥadīth
narrations there is another mode of this salaat by means of
which all religious and worldly goals can be achieved. This
has also been proven through experience. The mashāikh
134

have referred to this by the name of “salātul tasbeeh sughrā


(minor).”

Imam Ahmad ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ ‫م‬ ‫م‬


َ ‫ َر‬in his Musnad, Imam Tirmizi ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ َ ‫َر‬
under a chaper decicated to salātul tasbeeh, Imam Nasaai
‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ ‫م‬ ‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬in his Sunan, Ibn Khuzaimah ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ َ ‫ َر‬and Ibn Hibban
‫ِح ُه اهلل‬ ‫م‬ ‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬in their Sahīhs, Hākim ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬
َ ‫ َر‬in his Mustadrak have
narrated that Hadhrat Anas Bin Malik has narrated from
Hadhrat Umm Sulaim that Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬taught her
some words to say during salaat that whatever du’ā she
would make after that would get accepted. Those words
ْ‫ان ا م‬
were ‫هلل‬ ْ‫ اَ ْْل َ ْم ُد م ه م‬ten times and ‫ْب‬
َ ‫ ُسب ْ َح‬ten times, ‫ّلِل‬ ُْ َ ‫َهلل ا َ ْك‬
ُ ‫ ا‬ten times.

Note: Munaawi ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬


َ ‫ َر‬after narrating this ḥadīth, said that
the chain of narration is saheeh. Then he further stated that
the benefits and effects of this salaat will become apparent
when the words are uttered with understanding of its
meaning and with presence of heart not simple movement
of the tongue. Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬knows best.

In this mukhtasar salaatul tasbeeh, there is no special part of


salaat that has been specified as to when to read the above
phrases. It has not been specified in ḥadīth or according to
any a’alim or shaikh. Therefore it is at the discretion of the
worshipper as to when they would like to repeat those
phrases.

Du’ās
136

Most often recited daily Masnoon Du’ās

The noble Mashaaikh and U’lamā have said that blessed


indeed is the person that has made as part of their daily
routine du’ās which are specific to a situation. Whatever
works they will engage in they will have barakah in it and
Allāh‫ ﷻ‬will make it easy for them. This person will also be
included among those people who make zikr of Allāh ‫ﷻ‬
excessively. A person will attain the blessing practicing
these du’ās only when the ghaflat (negligence) of the heart
is removed and the heart has love for and a connection with
Allāh ‫ﷻ‬. To develop this, it is necessary to have:

1.suhbat (companionship/association) of the mashaaikh


for some time and

2. to practice the azkaar they have prescribed with


discipline.

However, without these two things a person with a


negligent heart will not recite them when the situation for
practicing that du’ā occurs despite him having learnt the
virtues of the du’ās, knows of their blessings and has
memorised its words. For example, saying Bismillah before
eating is known to everyone but majority of people forget to
say it and the food becomes devoid of barakah. In the
following pages the most common occurring du’ās have
been compiled. These should be memorised and practically
applied.

Istikhara Masnoona

Rasulullah SAW has stated that from the good fortune of a


person is that he makes istikhara (seeking of good) in all
matters excessively and to be pleased on the decree of Allāh
‫ﷻ‬. And the misfortune of a person is in him not doing
istikhara.

It has been narrated that whoever makes mashwara


(consultation according to sunnah) for any matter will never
have any regret and whoever makes istikhara will never
experience failure.

1. Rasulullah (SAW.) taught the Istikhara in the following


manner i.e. that when a person is in any dilemma or
indecision, he should perform two rakaats nafl salaat and
thereafter recite the following du’ā:

‫ك‬ َ ‫ك بم ُق ْد َر مت‬ َ ‫ك َوأ َ ْستَقْ مد ُر‬ َ ‫ك بمعمل ْ مم‬

‫ت تَعْل َ ُم أ َ ََّن َه َذا ْال َ ْم َْر َش ٌَّر‬ ‫وي َ َّ مس ْر ُه م ِْل ُث َم بَا مر ْ م‬

‫ِنْ عَن ْ ُه‬ ْْ ‫يِنْ َو َمعَا مشي َوعَاقمب َ مة أ َ ْم مر‬
ْ َّ ‫ي فَا ْص مرفْ ُه عَ م‬ ْ ‫م ِْف ْ مد م‬
‫ِنْ بم مْه‬
ْ ‫ان ُث ََّم ْار مض م‬ َ َ‫ثك‬ ُ ْ ‫َواقْ ُد ْر مِل َاْلْ َ ْيَ َحي‬

"O Allāh, with Your knowledge I seek the good, with Your
power I seek ability and Your mighty favour for certainly
You have the power I have none, You know and I do not
Know and You Know the unseen. O Allāh, in Your
knowledge if this matter is good for me in this Duniya and
the Akhirah, then let it be for me, grant me blessings in it
and if this matter is bad for me then keep it far away from
me and grant good wherever it may be and make me
pleased with that".

2. If one has to make a quick decision for some matter and


there is not enough time to pray salaat, then one should turn
their heart towards Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬with full attention and read
‫م‬
ْ‫اخ ََتْ م ْل‬
ْ ‫ اَلل ُهه ََّم خ ْر ملْ َو‬several times. InshaAllāh the reciter will be
guided towards goodness.

Istighfār, Kalimah Tayyibah, third kalimah, salawāt should

To be particular about the 40 ḥadīth of salawāt and reading


Ḥizbul A’aẓam.

Reading of the Holy Qurān, Surah Yaseen in the morning


and before sleeping at night to read Surah Mulk, Salāt on
151

the Prophet ‫ﷺ‬, Surah Faatiha, Ayatul Kursi and the 4


Quls (Kaafiroon, Ikhlas, Falaq and Naas) and then to blow
on hands and wipe all over body. Then read Tasbih Fatimah
and then the du’ās for sleeping. Read Surah Kahf, Salatul
Tasbeeh and make excessive salaat on the Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬on
Jumua’ah as has been explained on Page 38 in detail. Salāt
on the Prophet should be made excessively and
continuously by a Muslim in every situation. If one is
unable to do so due to being engaged in other work or can
not be fully attentive then the following concise salāt can be
recited.

ْ‫اهلل عَلَي ْ مه َو َسل ََّ َم‬


ُْ ‫اهلل عَ ٰ ْٰل ُُم َ ََّم ٍْد َص ََّٰل‬
ُْ ‫َص ََّ ْٰل‬
However, this salat is only for those people who can not do
any ṣalawāt due to extreme inability. As for people under
normal circumstances, they should do all their awraad
(litanies) that have been prescribed by their mashāikh. For
example Hadhrat Sheikh’s (Rahmatullah Alayh) daily
azkaar and a’amaal are handed to people who are newly
initiated into the tariqa. Similarly, anybody associated with
any shaikh should practice the guidelines and advices of
their shaikhs. Those who are initiated into any tariqah are
taught various formulas of dhikr and practices over time.

40 Ḥadīth of Salāt and Salām

The noble U’lamā have said that whenever a slave of Allāh


gives preference to what Allāh loves (i.e. sending the
blessed salawāt on the Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬over our own desires
and wants (that we make through du’ā) or that we give
preference to Allāh’s pleasure over our own goals, then
Allāh fulfils all the needs of this slave.

ْ‫اهلل ل َ ُه‬ ‫ان‬َ ‫ك‬ ‫َم ْن كَان م ه م‬


ْ
‫ّلِل‬
ُ َ َ
At the end of a narration by Hadhrat Ubbay bin Ka’ab
in which he asked the noble Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬of what would be
the reward if he spent all the time alotted for zikr salāt upon
the Prophet ‫ ?ﷺ‬The Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬said ‫ك‬ َ َ ‫ك َو يُ َك ََّف ُر ل‬
ْ َ َ ‫ك ذَنْب‬ َ ‫ه‬ ْ ٰ ‫امذًا ُت ْك‬
ََّ َ ‫ف‬
It will suffice you for all your worries and and it will be
expiation for your sins. In another narration Rasulullah ‫ﷺ‬
has said that person who sends salāt on me once, Allāh
sends on him salāt (blessings and mercy) ten times.

Allāh rewards according to the deed. That is why when


someone sends salāt on the Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬excessively, then
Allāh sends innumerable mercies and salutations on the
person reciting, his kith and kin and his descendants.
Definitely, those who receive such blessings will have his
goals of this world as well as the hereafter fulfilled. The
reason is that salawāt are definitely accepted and whoever
154

will make du’ā for their needs during the reading of the
following masnoon ṣalawāt will InshaAllāh have their du’ās
accepted.

The most virtuous salāt

The most rewarding and virtuous salat are the ones narrated
from Sahabah after they requested from the Beloved of
Allāh Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬to teach them and then the Holy
Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬uttered those pure words. The one that is
considered the most virtous out of these is the one that is
commonly known as durood or salāt Ibraheemiyyah. This
salāt is narrated in seven authentic aḥādīth with slight
variation in the wording. Some of these were put gatherd by
Maulāna Ashraf Ali Thanwi ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬in the form of 40 ḥadīth
in the following compilation.

Each salāt and salām is a ḥadīth as well, therefore


the one who recites it, reads it to others or dessiminates will
gain the reward for reciting forty ḥadīth. The reward for
doing so is that the person will be reserructed amongst the
U’lamā on the day of Judgement and Rasululllah ‫ ﷺ‬will
intercede for him i.e. He will have the reward of conveying
ḥadīth and the reward of reciting ṣalawāt.

The righteous predecessors have stated that ‫م‬


ََّْ ‫ اَلل ُهه‬is to call
‫ َ م‬are
Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬by all His beautiful names at once and ‫ِحي ْ ٌد ََّّممي ْ ٌْد‬
two such blessed names of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬that all of His
155

attributes are contained therein whether they be His


attributes of beauty or attributes of majesty. Therefore,
while reading ṣalāt Ibraaheemiyyah, the meaning of these
names of Allāh ‫ ﷻ‬should be reflected upon. By means of
this the spiritual benefits of the ṣalāt will be great.

Introduction

This is a collection of Verses from the Qurān. In my family


this was known as ‘Manzil’. The elders of my family used
to be very particular in using these verses in du’ās and
treatments. The children of our family were made to
memorise the Manzil at a young age.

In place of amulets (that are permissible according to


shariah), the veres of Qurān and those du’ās that are in the
ḥadīth are much more effective and beneficial. When
treating people one should be mindful of this.

Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬did not leave out any need of this world or


the hereafter except that he taught a du’ā by means of
which to resolve that difficulty. Experience has shown that
there are certain verses when read while in a specific need
or difficulty, Allāh will alleviate that difficulty.

Manzil is a tried and tested practice for protection and cure


from mischief, Sihr and other harmful things. These verses
are compiled in Al-Qawlul Jameel and Beheshti Zewar. In
Al-Qawlul Jameel Shah Wali-Ullah Muhadith Dehlawi has
stated that “there are thirty three verses that remove the
effects of black magic and protect from shaytaans, thieves
and wild animals”. In Beheshti Zewar, Maulāna Ashraf
Thanwi ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬has said written that “that whoever is fearful
that that someone is afflicted they should have these verses
written and hung on the person’s neck or that these verses
can be recited and then the reader blow on some water and
179

that water is sprinkled on the patient or that the water is


sprinkled in the four corners of the house.”

In our family, it was quite difficult for the ladies to read


these verses for anybody that was sick or afflicted as they
had to go through the Qurān and find the verses which were
usually book marked. So to make things easy, a separate
compilation was prepared.

Treatments and du’ās are effective according to the manner


the person is reading it. The more concentration, focus and
love that du’ās are read with, the more effective they
become. There are great blessings in the name and kalaam
of Allāh.

Hadhrat Shaykh Maulāna Muhammed Zakariya Saahib ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬

Important Note

1. Within the footnotes there are virtues and blessings (from


ḥadīth) of the verses of the Manzil. By reading these
enthusiasm will be created. Therefore, every now and then
these should also be read. However, they are not part of the
actual Manzil.
2. The Manzil can be held without wudhu but the reader
should be mindful not to touch the verses when handling
the book while not in a state of wudhu. This ruling does not
apply to handling a Qurān i.e. you can not handle a Qurān
without wudu.

It is narrated in a ḥadīth by Hadhrat Abdullah ibn Mas'ood that
there are ten verses in Surah Baqarah that have such an efficacy that if
one recites them at night, neither Shaytān nor the jinn would enter
one's house, nor would one and one's family be afficted with illness or
calamity or sorrow that night, and that if they are recited over a man
suffering from a fit of madness, his condition will improve. The ten
verses are these: the first four verses of the Surah, three verses in the
middle (that is, the Ayat al-Kursi, and the two following verses), and
the last three verses of the Surah. (Ma’aariful Qurān)
101
This verse encapsulates the meaning of Tawheed (Oneness of

In a length hadeeth it is narrated that Raasulullah SAW said that
that whoever reads ْ‫ُق ْل ُه َو اهلل ا ََح ٌد‬ and the Mu’awaizatayn (Surah Falaq
and Surah Naas) that it will suffice him. In another narration it will
suffice him in protecting him from all calamaties. Imam Ahmad has
narrated from Hadhrat Uqbah ibn Aamir that Rasulullah ‫ ﷺ‬said
that I shall tell you of 3 surahs that were revealed in the Torah, Psalms,
Bible and the Qurān. Don’t sleep at night until you have recited these
three (i.e. ْ‫ قُ ْل ُه َْو اهلل ا ََح ٌد‬and the Mu’awaizatayn). Hadhrat Uqbah
said since that time I never missed reading these surahs.

The Path for the one who has


lost his travelling companion

Our murshid (guide) Sheikh ul Ḥadīth Hadhrat Aqdas


Maulāna Muhammed Zakariyya ‫ِح ُه اهلل‬‫م‬
َ ‫ َر‬said that by reciting,
reading to others and disseminating salawāt is a definite
means of achieving the good of both worlds and nearness to
Allāh. That is why I always advise my friends to remember
death with their hearts and say the ṣalawāt with their
tongues as much as they can.

An explanation about profuse remembrance of death


and excessive ṣalawāt on the prophet

To have a connection or attachment to Allāh, purification is


essential i.e. to remove blameworthy traits and to acquire
praiseworthy traits. For this a relationship of bai’ah
(pledge) and islaaḥ (rectification) needs to be established
with a shaikh of tariqat who follows the Sunnah. The path
of tariqat requires two things muḥabbat (love) and suḥbat
(companionship) of a sheikh kaamil (accomplished shaikh)
and there afterwards to make abundant zikr in the shaikh’s
supervision. However, as we live in a time of evil and vice
and we are unable to find a shaikh that we can have affinity
197

with then for such a person the mashaikh have prescribed


an easy way to to achieve iḥsaan. They still need to go to
through the first step of bai’ah which is to to make their
beliefs in accordance to the Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah,
then they have to learn the knowledge of the pillars of
Islam, the farāidh (obligatory aspects of Islamic law) and
those things that are forbidden. Then he would also have to
act according as well. For this studying “Beheshti
Zewar”114 with a reliable a’ālim is sufficient.

This person should also remember death much and should


do istighfaar and tawbah. By remembering death often, high
expectations on dunya will end and the love of dunya will
come out of his heart. The love of dunya is the root of all
vice. For this reason, the reading of the booklet
“Remembrance of Death” will be beneficial.

The next step would be to create a connection and


attachment to Allāh by making abundant zikr in accordance
to a tariqah. But this has to happen under the supervision of
a shaikh, so that whenever some condition comes over the
sālik (seeker) then the shaikh can advice and guide him.

It is observed that the ṣalawāt prescribed by the


mashaikh of the Shadhilliyya Tariqah is profuse. The
reason is for doing so is that it creates a noor in the heart
that guides towards good. In a way it is an alternative to
having a perfect shaikh. However, there is a considerable
difference between the badl or alternative and the asal or

the Hanafi tradition.

original (i.e. having a shaikh). This spiritual link, exist from


the first generation of Islam until our time. So, this chain of
transmission (of Islamic spirituality) is the original source.

One should be mindful of the rewards of salawāt by reading


the book Fadhaail Durood. Also, one’s intention should also
be corrected, one should adhere to the sunnah and make
masnoon du’ā particular to the situation. For this one should
read the book “Al-Utoor Al-Majmoo’aah”115
