Benefits of Sending Blessings Upon Our Prophet Mohammed صلى الله عليه وسلم
1. All your concerns will be lifted and your sins forgiven. Ubay ibn Ka’ab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “‘I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah SAW, I frequently invoke Allah to elevate your rank. How much of my supplications should I devote to you?’ He said, ‘You may devote as much as you wish.’ When I suggested a quarter, he said, ‘Do whatever you wish, but if you increase it, it will be better for you.’ I suggested half, and he said, ‘Do whatever you wish, but if you increase it, it will be better for you.’ I suggested two- thirds, and he said, ‘Do whatever you wish but if you increase it, it will be better for you.’ I said, ‘Shall I devote all my supplications invoking Allah to elevate your rank?’ He said, ‘Then you will be freed from your worries and your sins will be forgiven.’”
2. Allah will send blessings on you.
The Prophet SAW said: “Whoever sends blessings upon me, Allah will send ten blessings (mercies) upon him.”
3. It will draw you closer to the Prophet SAW in the Hereafter. The Messenger of Allah said: “The closest of people to me on the Day of Resurrection will be those who sent the most blessings upon me.”
4. The Prophet will receive and return your greetings. The Messenger of Allah SAW said: “There is no one who sends greetings of peace (salam) upon me, but Allah will restore to me my soul so that I may return his salam.”
5. Your sins will be erased and your status raised.
The Messenger of Allah SAW said: “Whoever sends blessings upon me once, Allah will erase ten sins from him and will raise him ten degrees in status.”
O Allah, exalt the mention of Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as you exalted the family of Ibrahim. You are Praised and Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You blessed the family of Ibrahim. You are Praised and Glorious.
