Book excerpt: Blessings of Ṣalawāt: Upon the Holy Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ is a practical spiritual manual concisely organized to better understand the importance of conferring blessings upon the Beloved Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ. This work is the second title in the Wirdul ʿAam Series. The series outlines the Spiritual significance of the Wirdul ʿAam Dhikr formulated by Imam Abul Ḥasan Ash-Shādhilī (RA), as it pertains to the Dhikr of Ṣalawāt or the conferring of blessings upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Almighty Allah ﷻ directs us in Sūratul Aḥzāb, "Verily, Allah and His angels send blessings on the Messenger of Allah. O you who believe, invoke blessings on him, and salute him with a worthy salutation." Our purpose of invoking blessings upon the Beloved ﷺ leads to close proximity to Almighty Allah ﷻ by obeying this command, while simultaneously fulfilling our rights upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. It is crystal clear how important the invocation of Ṣalawāt is for the believer, and it is a Mercy of Almighty Allah ﷻ for its rewards to be multitudinous. Abundant Ṣalawāt upon the Beloved ﷺ leads to loving him and knowing his beautiful qualities. By that virtue, degrees of purity are realized. From the signs of the people of the Sunnah is sending Ṣalawāt upon him, for the key to all goodness is Ṣalawāt upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
