  DUROOD E IBRAHEEMI & PROPHET IBRAHEEM

               [Salutation upon Him]

Durood Shareef that is recited in the daily
prayers contains the name of Hazrat Ibraheem [Salutation upon Him] that is it
is known as Durood Ibraheemi. It is narrated that after completing the
construction of Baiet Ul laah [Kaaba] at Makkah], Hazrat Ibraheem  [Salutation upon Him] prayed to Allaah Kareem
that whoever old person from the Ummah of Hazrat Muhammad [the last prophet]
offers prayer [two Rakaat] by turning his face to Kaabah, accept my
intercession in his favor, Hazrat Ismaaeel [Salutation upon them] Hazrat Hajra,
Hazrat Sarah and Hazrat Ishaaq [Salutation upon them]said Aameen. After this
Hazrat Ismael [Salutation upon them]in his prayer asked Allaah Kareem to accept
his intercession in favor of the youngsters from Ummah of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ who offer prayers [two Rakaat] turning their face
towards Kaaba and others said Aameen. In this way, Hazrat Ishaaq [Salutation
upon them] prayed in favor of middle-aged person from Ummah
of  Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ, 

Hazrat Saraah prayed in favor of women of Ummah of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ  and Hazrat Hajrah
prayed in favor of young girls of Ummah of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ while the rest of them said Aameen.

Ummah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ [i.e. we Muslims] was asked to pray
for the family of Hazrat Ibraheem [Salutation upon them]in the five prayers as
a token of thanking the family of Hazrat Ibraheem [Salutation upon them] for
the gift of their prayers. The Dua [prayer] that is to be offered in each
prayer was taught by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in
the form of Durood Ibraheemi. 

This Durood shows the love of Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ for the family of Ibraheem [Salutation upon
Him]. Due to this love, Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ named
one of his sons as “Ibraheem”. Moreover, on the night of Mairaj, Hazrat
Ibraheem [Salutation upon them] asked Hazrat Muhammad ﷺ to say Salaam to his Ummah; as a response of this salaam,
Prophet Muhammadﷺ said Salaam on
them in the form of Durood Ibraheemi.

This is one of the best Durood as its words were
said by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ So,
abundantly reciting this Durood besides 5 prayers is full of blessings and
source of worldly and religious blessings, source of pleasure of Allaah Kareem,
changes hardships in ease and Allaah Kareem’s help accompanies the recite on
every step thus his needs get fulfilled. One gets the right of the intercession
of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, blessings in worldly
belongings, and death at Ieeman [belief] by reciting this Durood Shareef. One
who recites this Durood Shareef regularly gets ease in the life hereafter and
will enter into paradise.

The certificate or the validity of this Durood
Shareef is proved from the Bukhaari Shareef [Hadees book] that Hazrat Abdul
Reham bin Abi Laila said that they met Ka’ab bn Ajrah who said should I tell
you a Hadees of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ;
we said yes. 

He said, “once we requested to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ that we know the order to recite Durood
o Salaam on you but how should we do that? At this Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us these words:

اللَّهُمَّ
صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى
إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
.إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ
مَجِيدٌ
اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى
مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى
إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ
.إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ
مَجِيدٌ
