حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ، وَابْنُ، حُجْرٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، – وَهُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ – عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ “‏ مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَىَّ وَاحِدَةً صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ عَشْرًا ‏”‏ ‏

Abu Hurayrah reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
“He who sends prayers upon me once, Allah sends prayers upon him ten times.”


Lesson

We should send blessings on the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم as much as we can. After all, who does not want Allah to send prayers upon them? Whether it’s the short Durood or a long one, remember to say them at least 100 times per day. However, on Friday, we should try to say the Durood as much as possible, for it is said that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is informed of each and every person who sends prayers upon him.
