Durood-e-Taj

Question

How many times should and what time is best to read darood taj and how much is it effective? Can we read at night time?

Answer

Durood Shareef can be recited at anytime. It is best for one to recite the durood that appears in the Hadith e.g. 40 durood. Some of the wordings of Durood-e-Taj amounts to shirk. Hence, Durood-e-Taj should not be recited.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
