*THE MEANING OF ALLĀHUMMA SALLI ALAA MUḤAMMADIN* The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) said *"Increase your supplications for me on the day and night of Friday. Whoever sends blessings on me once, ALLĀH will bless him ten times."* {Sunan al-Kubrá #5854} One can say the following: *اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ* *Allāhumma salli ala Muhammadin (O ALLĀH, exalt the mention of Muhammad)* Shaykh Ibn Uthaymīn (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "What is the meaning of supplicating blessings upon the Prophet? That is, what is the meaning of the saying of one who says: 'Allāhumma salli alaa Muḥammad'? Most people read this supplication or beseech ALLĀH with it without understanding its meaning. This is a mistake. It is obligatory for you to know the meaning of everything you say or supplicate with so that you will not supplicate with what contains sin. Therefore, your saying *'Allāhumma Salli alaa Muḥammadin'* means, *'O ALLĀH praise him in the highest assembly'.* And the meaning of *'praise him'* is *'mention him with praiseworthy attributes'*. And the highest assembly refers to the angels. So when you say, *'Allāhumma Salli alaa Muḥammadin'* is as if you are saying, 'O Lord, describe him with praiseworthy attributes and mention him before the Angels so that they will increase in their love for him and his reward will increase with it'. This is the meaning of Allāhumma Salli alaa Muḥammadin." 📖 Sharḥ Riyadhus-Saliḥīn (5/517-518) *JUMU'AH CHECKLIST* *✅ Have a Ghusl.* *✅ Wear the best clothes.* *✅ Use Perfume (for men only).* *✅ Go early for Salātul-Jumu’ah.* *✅ Don't talk while the Imām is giving Khutbah.* *✅ Make du'aa in abundance.* *✅ Recite Suratul-Kahf.* *✅ Recite salawāt upon the Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) in abundance.* *✅ Pray 4 raka'at (in masjid) or 2 raka'at (at home) after Salāh.* *Albaseerah Whatsapp Group👇* https://chat.whatsapp.com/ISr8QtmTy9NJb8DgOFqQzF
