of Durud Shareef
The
Noble Rasool صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم has stated, ‘Whoever recites Salat
upon me one time, Allah عزوجل sends
ten mercies upon him.’ (Sahih Muslim, pp. 166, vol. 1)
Imaamat as Mentioned in Hadith
Hadith 1: It is reported in Abu Dawud from
Ibn Ab’bas رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘The virtuous amongst you should announce the Azaan
and the Qur’ra (Qaari) should perform the Imaamat’ (i.e. lead the
congregational prayer). (In that era, the person who knew the Qur’an more was
regarded as the one more learned).
Hadith 2: It is reported in the narration
of Sahih Muslim from Abu Sa’eed Khudri رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that the one most deserving of the position of Imaamat is
one who knows the Qur’an more.
Hadith 3: The Narration of Abu Shaykh from
Abu Hurairah رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ
عنہ that he صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘The Imam and the Mu’azzin receive reward (Thawaab)
equivalent to all those who performed (Namaaz) with them’.
Hadith 4: Abu Atiyah Aqeeli رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ says that Maalik bin Huwairith رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ used to come to visit us. Once (whilst he was visiting),
it was the time of Namaaz, so we asked him to go in front and lead the Namaaz.
He said, send one from amongst you in front, so that he may lead the Namaaz and
let me tell you why I am not leading the prayer. I heard Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم saying, ‘When one goes to visit a people, then he should
not lead them in prayer, rather one from amongst them should lead them in
prayer.’ [Reported by Abu Dawud and Tirmizi]
Hadith 5: It is reported in Tirmizi from
Ibn Majah رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘The Namaaz of 3 persons never exceeds their ears;
(1) a runaway (legal) slave until such time that he returns; (2) that female
who passes the night in the state whereby her husband is displeased with her;
(3) and the Imam of a people who for some reason disapprove of his Imaamat (for
some valid reason of Shariah).’
Hadith 6: The Narration of Ibn Majah from
Ibn Ab’bas رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ is as follows: The Namaaz of 3
persons does not pass even one span above their heads; One who leads a Nation
in Imaamat and they think ill of him (i.e. they disapprove); and that woman who
passed her night in the condition whereby her husband is displeased with her;
and two Muslims brothers, who leave each other because of some worldly reason.
Hadith 7: It is reported by Abu Dawud And
Ibn Majah from Ibn Umar رضی اللہ تعالٰی
عنہما that
Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘The Namaaz of 3 person is not
accepted; The one who is in front of the people, in other words he makes their
Imaamat and they disapprove of him; and that person who comes after showing his
back to the Namaaz, in other words he reads after the Namaaz has ended; and
that person who enslaved a free man.’
]Hadith 8: It is reported by Ahmad, Abu
Dawud and Ibn Majah from Salamah bint Hur رضی اللہ تعالٰی عنہما that Rasoolullah
صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said; ‘It is from amongst the signs of Qiyaamat that the
Ahl-e-Imaamat will place the responsibility amongst one another. They will not
find anyone worthy of leading them in Namaaz.’ (In other words, none will have the
qualification to lead them in prayer).
Hadith 9: It is reported in Sihah Sit’ta
(except Bukhari) from Ibn Mas’ud رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘Neither perform Imaamat in the home of a person,
or in his kingdom (territory), nor sit on his Masnad (i.e. throne or a specific
sitting place of stature), except with his permission.’
Hadith 10: It is reported by Shaykhain etc.
from Abu Hurairah رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ
عنہ that
Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘When one leads others in
Namaaz, then read short (Surahs), because there are also the ill, the weak and
the elderly amongst them; and when one leads his own people in prayer then he
may read as lengthy as he wishes.’
Hadith 11: It is reported by Bukhari from
Abu Qatadah رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘I enter into Namaaz and have an intention of reciting
at length, when I hear the crying of children; so I shorten (the recitation),
for I am aware that the child’s crying will cause grief to the mother.’
Hadith 12: It is reported in Muslim from
Anas رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that once Rasoolullah
صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم lead us in Namaaz and after completion, He صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم directed his holy attention towards us and said; ‘O
people! I am your Imam. Do not make Ruku, Sujood, Qiyaam or go away (complete Namaaz)
before I do, for I see you from in front and from behind.’
Hadith 13: Imam Maalik reports from him
(Anas) as well in this manner that Rasoolullah
صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘The hair on the forehead (forelock) of one who
raises and bows his head before the Imam is in the hand of shaitaan.’
Hadith 14: It is reported by Shaykhain etc
from Abu Hurairah رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ
عنہ that
Rasoolullah صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم said, ‘Does the one who raises
his head before the Imam does, not fear that Allah may turn his head into the
head of a donkey.’ Some Muhadith have mentioned that Imam Nawawi رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ went to Damascus to acquire knowledge of Hadith from a
very famous person there, and he learnt a lot from him, but he used to wear a
veil whilst teaching. He studied under him for a very long period but was never
able to see his face. When a very lengthy period of time passed and he noticed
that he (Imam Nawawi رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ
عنہ) had a great zest to learn Hadith,
then one day, he removed the veil from his face. What does (Imam Nawawi رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ) see? The face of the teacher is similar to that of a
donkey. He said, ‘Son! Fear going before the Imam! When this Hadith reached me
I thought it was doubtful, so I intentionally preceded (i.e. went before) the
Imam, so my face became as you are seeing it.
Ya Allah
عزوجل of Mustafa
صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم! We
make sincere Dua that blesses us all with strength in Imaan
and true love for the Holy Prophet
صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلمand
for all those who follow that which has been taught and commanded by Him. Amin! (Source:
