Hadith 122

and one who fears Allah, He would Remove his evil deeds from him and Magnify the Recompense for him [65: 5], and one who disobeys Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww had strayed a far straying and incurred a manifest loss. Surely, Allah and His Angels are Sending Salawat upon the Prophet. O you those who believe! Send Salawat upon him and submit submissively [33: 56]. O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww Your-saww servant and Your-saww Rasool-saww, the best of Your-saww Salawaat upon Your-saww Prophets-as and Your-saww Guardians-asws! ’’[262]
(The book) ‘Al Mutahajjid’ – It is reported by Zayd Bin Wahb who said, ‘Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-saww be upon him-asws, addressed on the day of Friday. He-asws said: ‘The Praise for Allah-azwj, the Guardian, the Praised, the Wise, the Glorious, and Doer of whatever He-azwj Wants, Know of the unseen, and Concealer of the faults, and Creator of the creation, and Descended of the drops (of rain), and Manager of the matters, and Lord-azwj of the skies and the earth, and the world and the Hereafter, Inheritor of the worlds, and best of the Deciders Who from the Magnificence of His-azwj Glory, there is nothing like Him-azwj! All Things humble to His-azwj Magnificence, and all things are disgraced to His-azwj Honour, and all things submit to His-azwj Power, and all things settle in their settlements to His-azwj Prestige, and all things from His-azwj humble to His-azwj Kingdom and His-azwj Lordship-azwj which Withholds the sky from falling upon the earth except by His-azwj Permission, and from the Hour being established, and from any thing to occur except with His-azwj Knowledge. We praise Him-azwj upon what has happened, and we seek His-azwj Assistance from our affairs upon what will be happening, and we seek His-azwj Forgiveness and we seek His-azwj Guidance! And I testify that there is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there is no associate for Him-azwj, King of the kings, and Chief of the chiefs, and Subduer of the skies and the earth, the One, the Forceful, the Great, the Lofty with the Majesty and the Honour, Judge of the Day of religion (Qiyamah), and Lord-azwj of our forefathers the former ones! And I testify that Muhammad-saww is His-azwj servant and His-azwj Rasool-saww. He-azwj Sent him-saww as a caller to the truth, and a witness upon the creatures. He-saww delivered Messages of his-saww Lord-azwj just as He-azwj had Commanded him-as, neither exceeding nor being deficient, and he-saww fought for the Sake of Allah-azwj against His-azwj enemies neither getting weary nor tired, and advised for Him-azwj among His-azwj servants, patiently, anticipating. And Allah-azwj Captured him-saww to Him-azwj and was Satisfied with his-saww work, and Accepted his-saww striving, and Forgave his-saww (nation’s) sins. May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon him‑saww and his-saww Progeny-asws! I-asws advise you all, servants of Allah-azwj, with fearing Allah-azwj, and take to obeying Him-azwj whatever you are capable of in these days, the vacant, the perishable, and prepare the righteous deeds, the majestic what the death will be a healing upon you due to it. And I-asws am instructing you all with rejecting this world (which is) leaving you, declining from you, and even though you don’t like leaving it the decayer of your bodies, and even if you love its renewal. Rather, your example and its example is like riders travelling on a way, and it is as if they are cutting across it and ventured into knowledge. It is as if they had reached it. And how perhaps is the flow to the peak from flowing to it until one reaches it? And how much perhaps would be the remaining (alive) for the who has a day for him, not exceeding it, and he keeps seeking relentlessly from the death which is chasing him? Therefore, do not compete regarding honour of the world and its pride, and do not be fascinated by its adornments and its bounties, and do not be alarmed from its harms and its hardships, for honour of the world and its pride is to the termination
