18. Alhumdulillah! Now like your heart, your face is also
directed towards the Jaali Mubaarak of Rasoolullah صلی
اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم which
is the resting place of the Beloved of Allah صلی اللہ
تعالی علیہ وسلم. Stand with total
respect and honour, with a medium tone, low gaze and with humility, neither
with a harsh or loud voice (since to speak aloud in this Court is disrespect
and cause of destruction) nor too soft since it is against the Sunnah (even
though the Prophet is aware of the condition of your heart, just as it was
evident from the sayings of the A'ima mentioned above), say the following:
As Salaamu Alaika Ayuhan Nabiyu wa Rahmatullahi Wa
Barkatuhu. As Salaanu Alaika Ya Rasool’Allah. As Salaamu Alaika Ya Khaira
Khalaqillah. Asalaamu Alaika Ya Shafi Al Muznibeen. As Salaamu Alaika Wa Ala
Aalika Wa As Ashaabika Wa Um'matika Ajmaeen
‘O Beloved Nabi of Allah. Salutations be upon you, and
the Mercy and the Blessings of Allah. O Allah’s Rasool, Salutations be upon
you. O the Best amongst Allah’s creation! Salutations be upon you. O Intercessor
of the sinners! Salutations be upon you. Salutations upon you, your noble
family, your companions and upon the entire Ummah’
19. Wherever possible, send Salaat-us-Salaam in abundance
upon Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم. Seek Shafa’at from Huzoor صلی اللہ
تعالی علیہ وسلم for
your Parents, Ustaads, Peer-o-Murshid, respected ones, friends, relatives and
all Muslims. Continuously say
As Alukash Shafa'ata Ya
Rasoolallah
‘O Allah’s Rasool! I beg of you
for your intercession’
20. If someone requested you to pass their salaams, then do
so. This is the command of the Shariat. This humble servant is advising and
requesting all those who read this booklet to say these words at least thrice when
visiting Madina, during my life or after my demise and assist me with this kind
favour. Allah will bless you and reward you for it in both worlds:
As Salaatu Was Salaamu Alaika Ya Rasool’Allah Wa Alaa
Aalika Wa Zur’riyatika Fi Qul'li Aanin wa lahzatin adada qul’li zar’raatin,
alfa alfa maratin min Ubaidika Ahmad Raza’bni Naqi Ali, Yas Alukash Shafa’ata
Fash Fi’ lahu wa lil Muslimeen
‘O Allah’s
Rasool! Blessings and Salutations upon you, even upon your noble family and
companions, equivalent to every atom, hundreds of thousands of times from your humble
servant Ahmed Raza, the son of Naqi Ali, and he seeks of you, your
intercession. Bless him and all Muslims with your intercession.’
21. Then turn towards your right, in other words towards the
East, just a little, and stand before the glowing face of Hazrat
Siddique-e-Akbar رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ and say
As Salaamu Alaika Ya Khalifata Rasoolillaahi. As Salaamu
Alaika Ya Saahiba Rasoolillaahi fil Ghaari Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuh
O Khalifa of Allah’s Rasool! Salaam upon you. O Companion
of the cave of Rasoolullah! Salaam upon you, may the Mercy the Blessings of
Allah descend upon you.
22. Then move a little more, and stand before Hazrat
Umar-e-Farooq رضی اﷲ
تعالیٰ عنہ and say
As Salaamu Alaika Ya Ameeral Mo'mineen. As Salaamu
Alaika Ya Mutam'mimal Arba’een. As Salaamu Alaika Ya Iz’zal Islami Wal
Muslimeena Wa Rahmatullaahi wa barakatuh
O Ameer ul Momineen! Salaam upon you. O you who completed
the counting of 40 Muslims! Salaam upon you. O Honour of Islam and the Muslims!
Salaam upon you, and may the Mercy and Blessings of Allah descend upon you.
23. Now move a span more to the west and stand between
Hazrat Siddique and Farooq and say
As Salaamu Alaikuma Ya Khalifatay Rasoolillahi. As Salaamu
Alaikuma Ya Wazeeray Rasoolillahi. As Salaamu Alaikuma Ya Daji'ay Rasoolillahi
wa Rahmatul laahi Wa Barakatuhu. As Alukumash Shafa'ata inda Rasoolillahi sall
Allahu ta'aala alaihi wa alaikuma wa baraka wa salam
O both Khalifas of Rasoolullah! Salaams upon you, O both
Viceroys of Rasoolullah! Salaams upon you, O both of you who are resting beside
Rasoolullah! Salaam upon you, and may the Mercy and Blessings of Allah descend
upon you. I request the both of you to be a Wasila for me and request
intercession for me from the Beloved Rasool صلی
اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم
24. All these Haaziris are places and moments of great acceptance,
thus strive in Dua. It is better to recite Dua-e-Jaame and to engross yourself
in recitation of Durood Shareef.
25. Then approach the Blessed Mimbar (Pulpit) and make Dua
near it.
26. Then proceed to Rauza-e-Jannat (In other words, that
area which is between the Mimbar and the Blessed Hujra Mubaarak and which has
been mentioned as a piece of the Garden of Jannat in the Hadith). Here you
should perform 2 Raka’ats of Nafil Salaah in the non-Makruh time and then make
Dua.
27. Likewise, try to read Namaaz near every pillar of the
Respected Musjid and ask for Dua since these are places of blessings, and
certain of them have special uniqueness over others.
28. For as long as you are present in Madina Tayyibah, do
not waste a single breath. With the exception of the two (main) necessities,
spend the rest of your time with Tahaarat in Musjid-e-Nabawi. Spend your time
there in Namaaz, Tilaawat and Durood. Worldly affairs should not be discussed
in the Musjid, either there or anywhere else.
29. Whenever you enter any Musjid, make the Niyyah of
I’tekaaf. The Niyyat is usually written on the door for your benefit:
Nawaytu Sunnatal I’tekaaf
I make intention for Sunnat
I’tekaaf
30. If you have the opportunity of fasting (spending Ramadan)
in Madina especially in the heat, then what a beautiful distinction this is,
for it holds a guarantee of intercession.
31. Here for every one good deed, 50 000 (fifty thousand)
deeds are recorded, so strive even more in Ibaadat. You should definitely limit
your eating and drinking.
32. Try to make at least one Khatam of the Qur’an here and
in the Hateem-e-Kaaba.
33. To look at the Rauza-e-Anwar is Ibaadat, just as it is
Ibaadat to look at the Kaaba Muazzamah and the Holy Qur’an; so do this with
utmost respect. Also send Durood and Salaam in abundance.
34. Send Salaam five times daily or at least in the morning
and in the evening, at the Muwajaha Shareef (Holy Rauza Mubaarak).
35. Whenever you are in the City of Madina or outside the
City, and your sight falls upon the Sacred Green Dome, immediately turn in its
direction, and with hands tied, send Salaams with respect. Never pass by
without doing this, as it is contrary to the principles of respect.
36. To miss the congregation (Jama’at) without valid reason,
anywhere is a sin and to do so continuously, is a serious major sin and Haraam,
and here, with the exception of it being a sinful act, it is to be seriously deprived 
. It
has been stated in the Sahih Hadith that Rasoolullah صلی
اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said,
‘Whoever does not miss 40 Namaaz
in my Musjid; protection from hell and protection from hypocrisy has been
written for him.’
. It
has been stated in the Sahih Hadith that Rasoolullah صلی
اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said,
‘Whoever does not miss 40 Namaaz
in my Musjid; protection from hell and protection from hypocrisy has been
written for him.’
37. Never ever face your back to the Rauza Shareef. Even in
Namaaz, you should stand in such a place that you avoid facing your back
towards the Rauza Shareef.
38. Do not make Tawaaf or Sajdah of the Rauza-e-Anwar and do
not bow to such an extent that it is equivalent to the position in Ruku. The
respect of Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم is in his obedience.
39. To visit Jannat-ul-Baqi, The Plains of Uhud and Musjid-e-Quba
is Sunnat. The sawaab of 2 Raka’ats in Musjid-e-Quba is equivalent to the
sawaab of one Umrah. If you wish, you may also remain here. When Sayyidi ibn
Abi Jamra would present himself, he would remain standing in the blessed Court
for 2 days continuously. Once he thought of the Ziyaarah of Baqi etc; he then
said; ‘This Door of Allah has been
opened for the beggars. Where can I leave it and go to.’ When the time of departing approaches, present yourself in
the Sacred Court, and request Huzoor صلی اللہ
تعالی علیہ وسلم to bless
you time and over again with this blessing of Haaziri. The etiquettes which
were followed when departing Makkah should also be applied here. Make dua with
a sincere heart by saying: ‘O Allah!
Afford me death in Madina Tayyibah with Imaan and on Sunnat, and allow me to be
buried in the Holy Baqi’. Aameen
