very promptly accepted and favoured Durood Shareefs are the following:-
.1. DUROOD-E-IBRAHIMI
ALLAHUMMA
SALLI ALA MUHAMMADIW WA ALA AALI MUHAMMADIN KAMAA SALLAITA ALA IBRAHIMA
WA ALA AALI IBRAHIMA INNAKA HAMIDUM MAJID. ALLAHUMMA BAARIK ALA

Muhammad, as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family. Truly, You are
Praiseworthy and Glorious. Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of
Muhammad, as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family. Truly, You are
Praiseworthy and Glorious”.
The
famous companion of the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam), Hadrat
Ka’ab bin Ujrah (radi Allahu anhu), narrates that once it was enquired
from Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) as to how
blessings should be sent to him. The Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi
wasallam) replied that the blessings be said in the manner (it has been
mentioned) above, that is, Durood-e-Ibrahimi.

2. DUROOD-E-NAHARIYA
ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA SALAWATAN KAMILATAW WA SALLIM SALAAMAN TAAAMAN ALA SAYYIDINA MUHAMMADINIL LAZI TANHALLU BIHIL UQADU WATAN FARIJU BIHIL KURABU WA TUQDA BIHIL HAWA IJU WA TUNAALU BIHIR RAGHAAA’IBU WAHUSNUL KHAWATIMI WA USTASQAAYAL GHAMAMU BIWAJHIHIL KAREEMI WA ALAAA A’LIHI WASAHBIHI FI KULLI LAMHATIW WA NAFSIN BI ADADA KULLI MA’LUMIL LAKA YAAA ALLAHU YAAA ALLAHU YAAA ALLAHU.
“O
Allah! Every moment and in every breath, bestow complete and the best
blessings and perfect peace which is endless on Muhammad, our master,
and on his descendants and his Companions, and may, for His Sake, all
our troubles and tortures be over, calamities ended, and all our needs
fulfilled, all our cherished desires attained, and good ends
vouch-saved, and clouds are laden with water through the glorious
countenance of Prophet. The perfect blessings and peace on the Prophet’s
House, his Family and his Companions every instance in number equal to
the count of all things in Thy Knowledge”.
Durood-e-Nahariya
is a great power. If it is recited daily, it will give such strength
and power to the reciter that no one on earth will be able to subdue
him. It is a grand success in all the affairs of the world. If this
Durood Shareef is recited during days of calamities, Allah Ta’ala will
help the reciter from the quarters unknown to the human beings. The
reciter will be able to cross every barrier of handicap safely and
soundly. In every worldly affair, in every trial and tribulation,
success will be his net income.
3. DUROOD-E-FATH
ALLAHUMMA SALLI WASALLIM WABARIK ALA SAYYIDINA MUHAMMADINIL FAATIHI LIMA UGHLIQA WAL KHAATIMI LIMA SABAKA WAN NAASIRIL HAQQA BIL HAQQI WAL HAADI ILA SIRAATIKAL MUSTAQEEMI SALLAL LAAHU ALAIHI WA ALA AALI WA ASHABIHI HAQQA QADRIHI MIQDAARIHIL AZEEM.
“O
Allah! May Thy grace, peace and blessings rest on Muhammad, our Master,
who opens that which is closed, and closes that which is preceded, who
helps truth with truth, and who guided mankind to Thy straight path. May
blessings of Allah be on him and his Family and Companions as according
to his exalted position befitting his merit and his high rank”.
Actually,
this Durood Shareef is in the Holy Quran; but then it was kept a
secret. Hadrat Abu-Bakr Siddique (radi Allahu anhu), the first Caliph of
Islam, used to recite it daily without fail. Some narrations say that
it is because of this Durood that he was awarded the title of “Siddique”
which means “Testifier to the Truth”.
Hadrat
Abul Muqqarab (radi Allahu anhu) says that a man’s total sins will be
washed away if he recites Durood-e-Fath for forty days continuously.
Hadrat
Shaikh Muhammad Bakari (radi Allahu anhu) says that the recitation of
Durood-e-Fath once a day relieves the reciter from the Fire of Hell.
Hadrat
Syed Ahmed Hillam (radi Allahu anhu) says that Durood-e- Fath was the
most favourite routine of Hadrat Ghaus-e-Azam, Sheikh Abdul Qaadir
Jilani (radi Allahu anhu) of Baghdad Shareef.
The great Saints also say that Durood-e-Fath is actual and real light.
Hadrat
Sheikh Yusuf Bin Ismail (radi Allahu anhu) says that this Durood
Shareef is the greatest mystery of Allah. It brings 100% success and
happiness to the reciter. In fact, this Durood Shareef brings prosperity
and favour and solves all the complex problems by the Grace of Allah.
When a man recites this Durood Shareef, the Angels of Allah surround
him, mercy covers him and peace starts descending on him.
4. DUROOD-E-SHAFI’I
ALLAHUMA SALLI ALA MUHAMMADIN KULLAMA ZAKARAHUZ ZAAKIRUNA WA KULLAMA GHAFALA UN ZIKRIHIL GHAFILUN.
“O
Allah! Shower blessings on Muhammad and his children whenever he is
remembered by those who remember him, and shower blessings on Muhammad
and family whenever he is not remembered by the negligent, and grant him
peace constantly in abundance”.
This
Durood Shareef is called Durood-e-Shafi’i because Hadrat Imam Shafi’i
(radi Allahu anhu) used to recite it constantly and he received glad
tidings of Jannah in this world. This Durood Shareef is of a very great
significance. It brings tremendous prosperity, health, happiness and
success in this and the next world.
Hadrat
Allama Sakhavi (radi Allahu anhu) has written in his book that Abdullah
bin Abdul Hakam saw Hadrat Imam Shafi’i (radi Allahu anhuma) in a dream
after his death and inquired about life after death. Imam Shafi’i (radi
Allahu anhu) told him that because of the continuous recitation of the
above Durood Shareef, Allah Ta’ala gave him the most exalted position of
the highest grade in Heaven and forgave him. Hadrat Imam Muzni (radi
Allahu anhu) has also narrated exactly the same story.
This
Durood Shareef is of a very great significance. It brings tremendous
prosperity, health and happiness and success in this world and the
Aakirah.
5. DUROOD-E-DAWAAMI
ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA SAYYIDINA MUHAMMADIW WA ALA AALI SAYYIDINA MUHAMMADIN ADADA MA FI ILMIL LAAHI SALAWAATAN DAA’IMATAN BIDAWAAMI MULKILLAH.
“O
Allah! Shower blessings on Muhammad, our master, in the number that is
in Thy knowledge such blessings as may continue for ever eternal as Thy
Kingdom”.
This
Durood Shareef is of a very great value. If it is recited only once, it
amounts to all the rewards of all the Duroods. By reciting this Durood,
one gets peace of mind and success in this world as well as in the
next. After reciting this Durood Shareef, the reciter can claim that he
has recited almost all the Duroods which are in this world known to the
people. During days of upheavals, this Durood Shareef brings relief,
success and true happiness. It is mostly the Saints and very pious
people who recite this Durood after every prayer. They also recommended
this Durood Shareef to all the needy.
6. DUROOD-E-TUNAJJINA
ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA SAYYIDINA WA MAULANA MUHAMMADIW WA ALA AALI SAYYIDINA WA MAULANA MUHAMMADIN SALAATAN TUNAJJINA BIHA MIN JAMI’IL AHWAALI WAL’AFAATI WA TAQDILANA BIHA MIN JAMI’IL HAAJAATI WATU TAHIRUNA BIHA MIN JAMI’IS SAYYI AATI WATAR FA’UNA BI HAA A’LAD DARAJAATI WATU BAL LIGHUNA BIHA AQSAL GHAAYAATI MIN JAMI’IL KHAIRAATI FIL HAYAATI WABA’DAL MAMAATI INNAKA ALA KULLI SHAY IN QADEER.
“O
Allah! Shower blessings on Muhammad, our Master, and his Family such
blessings by means of which Thou may relieve us of all anxieties and
calamities. Thou may satisfy all our needs. Thou may clean us of all
evils and thanks for which Thou may grant us high position and high rank
and status in Thy presence, and Thou may lead us to the utmost limit of
our aspirations and capacity in whatever is best in this world as well
as in the world Hereafter, as Thou has the full Power over everything”.
This
Durood Shareef is always a cure for all calamities in the world of
worldly affairs. It was taught by Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu
alaihi wasallam) himself. To recite this Durood Shareef 70 times during
days of calamity, turmoil and trouble, is a must. It works wonders.
The
great Scholar, Saint, Jurist and author, Imam ibn-Faikihani (radi
Allahu anhu) says that there was once a pious man called Sheikh Moosa
Zareer (radi Allahu anhu). He embarked on a voyage by ship. Due to a
heavy storm, the ship started sinking. All the passengers on board
started crying and clamouring, but Sheikh Moosa Zareer (radi Allahu
anhu) went to sleep. He saw the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi
wasallam) in his dream and the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)
directed him and the passengers to recite Durood-e-Tunajjina 1 000
times. Sheikh Moosa Zareer (radi Allahu anhu) got up and started the
recitation. As soon as he finished 300 Durood Shareefs, the storm
subsided and the ship was saved. The other ship on the high seas sank,
but this ship reached its destination safely and soundly. This miracle
was a sufficient eye-opener for the members of the ship. It was by the
Grace of Allah Ta’ala and Durood-e-Tunajjina that all were saved.
All
the Saints have unanimously given verdict that Durood-e-Tunajjina is
the best cure of all ills and all calamities of this world.
7. DUROOD-E-QURAANI
ALLAHUMMA
SALLI WASALLIM ALA SAYYIDINA MUHAMMADIW WA ALA AALI WA ASHABI BI ADADA
MA FI JAMI’IL QURAANI HARFAN HARFAN WABI ADADI KULLI HARFIN ALFAN ALFAN.
“O
Allah! Send your blessings and peace on Muhammad, our Master, and on
his Progeny and his Companions according to the number of every letter
in Quran and let each letter carry thousands of blessings and
salutations in it”.
This
Durood Shareef is a very sacred one. If it is recited after every
prayer, it is said that the reciter will receive the Sawaab equivalent
to the recital of the entire Holy Quran. After reading the verses of the
Holy Quran, this Durood Shareef should be recited 3 times.
.

8. DUROOD-E-SADAQAH
ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA MUHAMMADIN ABDIKA WA RASOOLIKA WA SALLI ALAL MU’MINEENA WAL MU’MINAATI WAL MUSLIMEENA WAL MUSLIMAATI.
“O
Allah! Shower Thy blessings and beneficence on Muhammad, Thy creature
and Thy Messenger, and shower beneficence on all men of faith and women
of faith, and Muslim men and Muslim women”.
This
Durood Shareef is a special one. Hadrat Abu Saeed Khudri (radi Allahu
anhu), a close companion of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi
wasallam), says that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi
wasallam) said: “Whoever does not possess wealth to give in charity,
should recite this Durood in his Du’a. It will become a source of
(spiritual) cleanliness for him”.Hadrat Abu Huraira (radi Allahu anhu)
says that the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said: “Allah
has said, ‘If you spend I shall spend on you’”. This means that if you
spend your money on others – the poor, sick, needy and the orphan –
Allah will give you in abundance. But, what if a man has nothing to give
in charity? By reading Durood-e-Sadaqah, it will suffice.
ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA MUHAMMADININ NABI YIL UMMI YI WA AALIHI WABAARIK WA SALLIM.
“O Allah! Send blessings on Muhammad, our chief the unlettered Apostle and his Family Thy favours and thy Salutations”.
Hadrat
Shah Wali’ullah Dehlvi (radi Allahu anhu) said that his father
commanded him to recite the above Durood Shareef as it was the best one.
Hadrat
Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu), a close companion of Sayyiduna
Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam), has said that if a person
recites this Durood eighty times on Friday (after evening prayers), then
his sins equivalent to 80 years will be forgiven.
This is a very important Durood Shareef which brings forth immediate success and satisfaction to the heart and the mind.
Hadrat
Zarar bin Auzar (radi Allahu anhu), another companion of the Holy
Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) says that he used to recite this
Durood Shareef and fight with the non-believers. In every battle, he saw
that success kissed his feet, and he never lost any battle on any day.
ALLAHUMMAJ AL SALAWAATIKA WA BARAKAATIKA ALA MUHAMMADININ NABI YI WA AZWAAJIHI UMMAHAATIL MU’MINEENA WAZURRIYATIHI WA AHLI BAYTIHI KAMA SALLAYTA ALA IBRAHIMA INNAKA HAMEEDUM MAJEED.
“O
Allah! Bestow blessing and bounty on our Prophet and on his wives, who
are the Mothers of the Faithful, and on his descendants and on the
members of his Household in the manner as Thou conferred blessings on
Prophet Ibrahim. Verily, thou art the Praiseworthy and the
Glorious”.Hadrat Ali (radi Allahu anhu) said that if any one wishes that
he should get the maximum reward for one Durood alone, then he must
recite the above Durood Shareef.
