40 Salaah in Masjidun Nabawi

· 27 Shawwal 1445 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I am going for Hajj this year. Many have advised to take advantage of the 40 Salaah Fazilat in Masjidun Nabawi ﷺ. Is there a proof attached to this virtue?

Answer

By performing forty Salaah in Masjid-e-Nabawi, one is granted freedom from the fire of Jahannam and freedom from hypocrisy. This virtue is established from the Hadith, hence you should try to perform 40 Salaah in Musjid-e-Nabawi with Takbeer-e-Ula. [Re: Fataawa Darul Uloom Zakariyya Vol:3 Pg:483]
