IT HAS THE FRAGRANCE OF HADITH

Each chapter is also full of Hadith Shareef. For example, chapter 14 titled "Fee Qaalihi wa Maqaalihi" (On What He Said) devotes the first few pages to 225 salawaat woven around the blessed Hadith Shareef, one of which is:

Allahumma Salli 'alaa Sayyidina Muhammad-in
Wa 'alaa aali Sayyidina Muhammad-i nil qaa-ili
Innamal a'maalu binniyyaati

O Allah! Bestow blessings on Sayyidina Muhammad
and on the family of Sayyidina Muhammad who said:
"Truly, actions are to be judged by intentions".

The Hadith Shareef in this salaat has been narrated by Sayyidina 'Umar ibn Khattab Rady Allahu 'Anhu and is the first Hadith Shareef reported in the Sahih (Authentic) of Imam Bukhari, Riyadh u's Saleheen (Gardens Of The Righteous) of Imam an-Nawawi and Mishkaat u'l Masaabeeh (Niche For Lamps) of Imam Waliuddin Abu 'Abdullah Mahmud, Rahmatullahi 'alaihim ajma'een.

Chapter 26 titled "Fee Khuluqihi wa Akhlaaqihi" (On His Moral Character and Noble Behaviour), is also full of salawaat blended with Hadith related to the topic, three of which are:

Allahumma Salli 'alaa Sayyidina Muhammad-i nillazee qaala
Inna athqala shay'in yoodha'u fee meezaani'l mu'mini yauma'l qiyaamati
Khuluqun hasanun
Wa Inn'Allaha yabgidhu'l faahisha'l baziyy

O Allah! Bestow blessings on Sayyidina Muhammad who said:
"Nothing is weightier in the scales of a believer on the Day of Judgement
Than his good behaviour.
Allah detests a person who is obscene and shameless".

The Hadith Shareef in this salaat has been narrated by Hadhrat Abu Darda Rady Allahu 'Anhu and is reported in Tirmidhi and Riyadh u's Saleheen, (with slightly different wording).

Allahumma Salli 'alaa Sayyidina Muhammad-i nillazee
Sa'ala rajulun-Nabiyya Sallallahu 'alaihi wa Sallam
Ganaman bayna jabalayni fa a'taahu iyyaahu
Fa ataa qaumahoo faqaala ay qaumi aslimoo
Fa Wallahi inna Muhammad-an layu'tee 'ataa-an
Maa yakhaafu'l faqra

O Allah! Bestow blessings on Sayyidina Muhammad
who, Allah's blessings and peace be on him,
was once asked by someone to give him a flock of sheep between the mountains
and he gave that to him.
That person came to his community and said: "O people! Embrace Islam.
By Allah. Truly, Muhammad gives away so much as if he does not fear poverty".

The Hadith Shareef in this salaat has been narrated by Hadhrat Anas bin Malik Rady Allahu 'Anhu and is reported in Muslim.

Allahumma Salli wa Sallim 'alaa Sayyidina Muhammad-in
Wa 'alaa aali Sayyidina Muhammad-i nilladhee
Maa su'ila shay-an qattu faqaala laa

O Allah! Bestow blessings and peace on Sayyidina Muhammad
and on the family of Sayyidina Muhammad
who never said "no" whenever he was asked for anything.

The Hadith Shareef in this salaat has been narrated by Hadhrat Jabir bin 'Abdullah Rady Allahu 'Anhu and is reported in Muslim.
