About Durud
Question
I read somewhere about Darood-shareef Hall-e-mushkilat,my question is the said darood shareef is authentic or not, ALLAHUMMA SALLI WA SALLIM WA BAARIK ALAA SYEEDINA MOHAMMADIN QAD ZAAQAT HII'LATI ADRIKNI YA RASULALLAH.
If not than what darood we must recite other than darood-e-ibrahimi,which is short and best
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
This durud in reference is not authentic.
To recite durood (salaat and salaam) on Rasulullah (Sallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) is an act of great virtue and is also uniquely instructed by Allah Taala in the Quran where Allah says:
He Himself and the angels sends salat and salam upon Rasulullah (Sallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam).
Our pious predecessors took pride in compiling various salat and salaam upon Rasulullah (Sallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam).The most recent is the forty salaat and salaam of Shaykh Muhammad Zakariyya Kandhelvi (Rahimahullah).
