Translator’s Note: 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 be upon his companions who accepted and propagated Islam to the entire world. This book is a translation of Mukhtaṣar Ḥizbul A’aẓam. Which is an abridgement of Ḥizbul A’aẓam. Ḥizbul A’aẓam means ‘the Greatest Litany’. It was a collection of all du’ās made in the Qurān and Sunnah compiled by Mulla مOn the instructions of Hadhrat Sheikh A’li Qari ِح ُه اهلل َ ر. َ م Maulāna Zakariyyah ر مِحَ ُه اهلل, َ Sufi Muḥammad Iqbal َرِحَ ُه اهلل abridged the original in the present form for those busy in tableegh (preaching) and ta’leem (Islamic education) to obtain benefit from making regular du’ās. 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 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). I have given the first day as Jumua’h and the remaining days of the week are simply numbered.

Also, 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. Khalid Shah

Biography of Hadhrat Sufi Iqbal Hadhrat Sufi Muḥammad Iqbal was born in 1926 in the city of Hoshyarpur, district Jalandhar, India. He attended a government school until the 10th grade. While in 6th grade, he developed a keen interest in Deen and joined a madrasah of his own accord. 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 مalso known as A’li Mian, at Nadwatul Nadwi ِح ُه اهلل َ ر, َ 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 discontinue his studies and 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 (permission to be the spiritual representative and successor oh his sheikh) in Jan 1968. He was so devoted to his sheikh that he would spend every Ramadān with him in Saharanpur. He maintained good relationship with many of the notable scholars including Maulāna Yusuf Dehlavi, Maulāna A’li Mian and م Maulāna Manzoor Nu’mani ِح ُه ُم اهلل َ ر. َ
~8~
He was chosen by Shaikhul Hadīth to write many books which included Akabir Ka Salook-o-Ahsan, Akabir ka Taqwa, Muhabbat (Achievement of Love), Faiz-e-Sheikh and many more. Our beloved Sufi Muḥammad Iqbal breathed his last breath on July 16, 2000 in Madīna Munawwara and was buried in Jannat ul Baqi’. May Allah 1 ﷻbless him with His Rahmat. Āmīn.

Referencing of Aḥādīth For this Mukhtasar Hizbul A’azam (urdu version) the translation of Maulāna Badrul 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 confer upon them the highest levels of his pleasure and Paradise. 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 hereafter.

ال رُْل ه م ص َ الدع َ ُاء ُم ُخ الْعمبَادَ مةِ اّٰلل عَلَي ْ مه َو َُل َ َم ( َع ْن اَنَس ؓ) ُ َو قَ َ َ ُ ْ ُ اّٰلل َ ّل ه ُ said that “Du’ā is Essence of I’bādatﷺ The Prophet (worship)”. It is narrated in a hadīth that there is nothing than du’ā. In another ḥadīth it isﷻ more beloved to Allāh after mentioning the virtues ofﷺ narrated that Rasulullāh
~ 11 ~
du’ā 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 deeds valuable and weighty in the sight of Allāh ﷻby doing all things 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 a’qāid (beliefs) and aa’māl (actions) i.e. they will encourage and teach them the pillars of Islam such as salaat, fasting, etc. They will teach them about ḥalāl (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 azkār (pl. of zikr – remembrance of Allāh) and aadāb (Islamic manners) through which internal purification will be achieved and love for Allāh ﷻwill become stronger.
~ 12 ~
So, through this continuous remembrance and ikhlās (sincerity) they will be continuously pleasing Allāh ﷻ. From 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. One of these collections is Ḥizbul A’aẓam.2 Sheikhul Ḥadīth Maulāna Muhammed Zakariyyah َر مِحَ ُه اهللused to recite Ḥizbul A’aẓam as part of his daily routine.
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 desires to earn the blessings of Almighty Allāh. Imam Jazuli’s Dalaail ul Khairat was derived from Ḥizbul A’aẓam.
~ 13 ~
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 ر مِحَ ُه اهلل. َ He ordered us to prepare an abridged form 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 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 Rasulullah ﷺhimself. To love Rasulullah
م Hadhrat Sheikh Maulāna Zakarriyya ِح ُه اهلل َ َرwanted those engaged in deeni occupations to be also making Dua 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. 3
~ 14 ~
ﷺhimself is conditional for Imān and without Imān and love no deed or imitation of Rasulullah ﷺhas any value. 4
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, it’s haqeeqat (reality), its ādāb (manners) and conditions in the forefront
4
Translator: Regarding reciting salawaat, the wordings of which are م not from the Sunnah, Shaykh Khalil Ahmad Saharanpuri ِح ُه اهلل َ َ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 – translator unknown)
~ 15 ~
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 this reason du’ā should be considered an i’baadat and it is also the fulfilment of the order of Allāh ْ “ ُا ْد ُع ْْ 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 I’baadat even though what caused the person to make the du’ā was some transient need of this world.
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 ْ َُ ْْا فَتَبَا ُكIf you can not weep than pretend to weep”. That is make the appearance of weeping before
~ 16 ~
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
“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 while we make those du’ās.
As we are ordered to give to the destitute, so does Allāh ﷻgive to those who ask like the destitute . 6 Quran: Aal Imraan 31 5
~ 17 ~
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 for. 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 anything 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. 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.
~ 18 ~
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 made repeatedly, 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 physical.

O the One whose status is exalted! You have yourself said “"Verily, Allāh and His angels shower blessings on the Prophet. O Believers! Send blessings upon him and salute him with a worthy salutation".12 This noble salāt contains a Qurānic verse which explicitly orders the believers to send salāt and salām on the holy Prophet ﷺ. It is clear that this action is important and beloved to Allāh ﷻbecause Allāh ﷻhimself sends salāt and salām upon him. Therefore the unique status of 12

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 ُِ عَلَيْه. The Prophet of Allāh is alive and َ ِ مم 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.” م Ibn Qayyim ِح ُه اهلل َ َرsaid, “The virtue of conferring blessings on Jumuah is because Jumuah is the leader of all days and

the Prophet ﷺis the leader of all the Prophets الس ََلم ُِ عَلَيْه. َ ِ مم 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

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.

O Allāh! Confer your blessings upon Muḥammad and the family of Muḥammad just as you conferred blessings upon Ibrāhīm and the family of Ibrāhīm. Verily, You are the Praiseworthy, Majestic. O Allāh, bless Muḥammad and the 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

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. 24

In your hand lies the betterment (of everyone). You are surely powerful over everything. You make the night enter into the day, and make the day enter into the night; and You bring the living out from the dead, and bring the dead out from the living, and You give to whom You will beyond measure.

a manner befitting (Your majesty) for indeed You are worthy to be feared, and worthy to forgive. م Alahmah Ibn Mushtahir ِح ُه اهلل َ َرsaid that whoever wants to praise Allāh ﷻin the most virtuous way that he could ever be praised by any creation, from the first or the last of the creation, or from the angels that are near to Allāh ﷻ, or from anyone from those who are on the earth or those in the heavens. And Also if one wants to read salat on the Holy Prophet ﷺthat is the most virtuous then he should read as above and similarly if he wants to make du’ā to Allāh ﷻin the most virtuous form then he should make this du’ā.29 J4k

My Lord! Grant me that I offer gratitude for the favour You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents, and that I do righteous deeds that You like. And set righteousness, for my sake, in my progeny. Of course, I repent to you, and truly I am one of those who submit to You. This Qurānic verse was revealed regarding Hadhrat Abu Bakr As-Siddeeq . He made a du’ā which Allāh ﷻhas mentioned and also accepted in such a way that his parents, children and brothers all became Muslim. Hadhrat Abu Mu’shir complained to Hadhrat Talha bin Musrif َر مِحَ ُه اهلل about the disobedience of his son. He advised him to seek help by means of this verse.30 For seeking hidayat for kith and kin this du’ā should be made. J5k

Through this du’ā forgiveness is sought for those believers who have passed away and to remember them positively. It is narrated from Hadhrat Aisha that she said that Muslims are ordered to make du’ā for the Sahaaba of the Prophet ﷺ, but now people disobey this order and criticise the Sahaaba. Then she recited the above verse.31 J6k

O Allāh! Place nur in my heart, nur on my tongue, nur in my hearing, nur in my sight, nur behind me, nur in front of me, nur on my right, nur on my left, nur above me and nur below me; place nur in my sinew, in my flesh, in my blood, in my hair and in my skin; place nur in my soul and make nur abundant for me; make me nur and grant me nur. It is sunnah to recite this du’ā while going to the masjid or at the time of tahajjud. The nur (light) referred to here is 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.

Place not our calamaties in our religion, and let not this world be our biggest concern, nor the extent of our knowledge. And do not appoint over us one who has no mercy on us.
Sarfaraz Khan Safdar (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).” (Translator of quote unknown)

O Allāh!

As You have Yourself declared in regards to him “Muḥammad is not a father of your men, but he is a messenger of Allāh and the last of the prophets” In a ḥadīth, Rasulullah ﷺhas said that there will be no prophet after me. For this reason Even Hadhrat Eisaa who was raised alive above the skies, after his second coming or descension will also follow the shariah of Rasulullah ﷺ.

Mukhtasar Salatul Tasbeeh In the book Hayaatul Muslimeen of Hadhrat Hakeemul م Ummah Maulāna Ashraf A’li Thanwi ِح ُه اهلل َ َرthere is attached a small section written by his student the late Mufti م of Pakistan Mufti Shafee Usmani ِح ُه اهلل َ َ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 مHadhrat Shaikh used to have this a’amal as part of ِح ُه اهلل َ 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. It’s effectiveness has also been proven through experience. The
~ 135 ~
mashāikh have referred to this by the name of “salātul tasbeeh sughrā (minor).” م م Imam Ahmad ِح ُه اهلل َ َرin his Musnad, Imam Tirmizi ِح ُه اهلل َ َر under a chatper decicated to salātul tasbeeh, Imam Nasaai م م ِح ُه اهلل َ َرin his Sunan, Ibn Khuzaimah ِح ُه اهلل َ َرand Ibn Hibban م م ِح ُه اهلل َ َ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 were هلل ِان ا م ِ اَ ْْل َ ْم ُد م ه مten times and ِب ُِ َ َهلل ا َ ْك َ ُُب ْ َحten times, ّٰلل ُ اten times. م Note: Munaawi ِح ُه اهلل َ َ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 and 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 restricted 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.

Daily Masnoon Du’ās
~ 137 ~
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
~ 149 ~
Istikhara Masnoona Rasulullah ﷺhas 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 ﷺtaught 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:
م إ ممِن أَُت َ م ك خ َ ك بم ُق ْد َر مت َ ك بمعمل ْ مم َ ك َوأ َ ُْت َ ِْق مد ُر َ ري ُ ْ َِ اَلل ه ُه ك الْعَ مظ م ك تَقْ مد ُر َو َْل أَقْ مد ُر َوتَعْل َ ُم َ َ يم فَإمن َ ك مم ْن فَ ْضلم َ ُ َوأ َ ُْأَل ت ع َ ََل ُم الْغُي ُ م ت تَعْل َ ُم أ َ َن َه َذا َِ ْب اَلل ه ُه َ ْ م إ ْمن ُكن َ ْ َو َْل أَعْل َ ُم َوأَن ي فَاقْ ُد ْر ُه م ِ ِْل ِْ ِْنْ َو َمعَا مش ِْي َوعَاقمب َ مة أ َ ْم مر ِ ْال َ ْم َِر َخ ْريٌ م ِِل ْ م ِِف ْ مد م

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 ْ اَلل ُهه َم خ ْر ملْ َوseveral times. InshaAllāh the reciter will be ْاخ ََتْ م ِل guided towards goodness.

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.
َ َص َّلِاهللِع َ ٰ ِّل ُُم َ َمدِ َص ِاهللِعَلَي ْ مه َو َُل َ َم ّ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
~ 154 ~
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.
َم ْن كَان م ه م ِاهلل ل َ ُه ان ك ِ ّٰلل َ َ َ ُ 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 ذَنْب ِ ٰ َْ امذًا ُت ََ ف َ َ ك َو ُْ ََ َف ُر ل َ ه 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
~ 155 ~
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 gatherd by م Maulāna Ashraf Ali Thanwi ِح ُه اهلل َ َ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
~ 156 ~
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.

Verses from the Holy Qurān that protect from mischief, magic and other harms.
میزل Manzil This compilation also contains notes on the virtues and blessings of the sacred verses. The notes are concise so while reading there will be enthusiasm and spiritual benefits .
~ 178 ~
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 َر مِحَ ُه اهللhas 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 م Ashraf Thanwi ِح ُه اهلل َ َ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 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 it is read. 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 Maulāna Muḥammad Talha son of Hadhrat Shaykh م Maulāna Muhammed Zakariya Saahib ِح ُه اهلل َ ر. َ 22nd Shaban 1399 Hijri 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 Allāh). The foundation of the whole of deen is based on Tawheed.

Hadhrat Jubair Bin Mut’im narrates from the holy Prophet ﷺ says that he asked him whether he wished to have the best companions and the most amount of provisions with him when he was on a journey, and he said he definetly wanted that, then, the Prophet 111
ﷺsaid: "Recite these five Suras: Surah Kafirun, Surah Nasr, Surah Ikhlas, Surah Falaq and Surah Nas, and begin your recitation (of each surah) with Bismillah and end (the surah Naas) with Bismillah. (Tafseer Mazhari) It is narrated that Sura Kafirun is equal to one fourth of the Quran. (Tiimizi) 112
In one narration, Surah Ikhlaas is equated to one third of the Qurān.

In a length hadeeth it is narrated that Rasulullah ﷺsaid that that
whoever reads
ُِق ْل ُه َْ 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 َْ اهلل ا ََح ٌدand the Mu’awaizatayn). Hadhrat Uqbah that time I never missed reading these surahs.

َِرْي ُق لِ َمنْ فَقَدَ الرَّ ِفْيق َّ اَلط The Path for the one who has lost his travelling companion Our murshid (guide) Sheikh ul Ḥadīth Hadhrat Aqdas م Maulāna Muhammed Zakariyya ِح ُه اهلل َ َ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 excessive 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

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 unusually excessive. 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 alternative and the 114

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