Introduction to the revised editionAll praise is due to Allah Ta'ala, The Supreme Master of the worlds. Countless Durood and Salaam be upon our beloved Nabi, Sayyiduna wa Mawlana Muhammad [PBUH]. Just as the Qur-aan-e-Majeed is a living mu'jizah (miracle) of our beloved Nabi Muhammad [PBUH], so too are the mubaarak duas of Rasulullah [PBUH]. Every dua that Nabi [PBUH] made is applicable to every period of time and will be applicable till the day of Qiyaamah. The great Muhaddith, Mullah A'li Qaari (rahmatullahi alayh), most excellently compiled the duas mentioned in the Qur-aan-e- Kareem as well as the duas and supplications of our beloved Nabi Muhammad [PBUH], in his booklet titled Al- Hizbul A'zam. These include the duas that Nabi [PBUH] made at the Ka'bah Shareef, in the Hateem, the duas made on the occasion of Haj, in Mina, Arafaat and Muzdalifa, the duas that Nabi [PBUH] made at the time of Tahajjud and in the different battles and expeditions that took place in the twenty-three year period of his Nubuwwat. Each dua was divinely inspired by Allah Ta'ala and will remain a balm for ailing hearts till the day of Qiyaamah. These duas are a means of protection for all Muslims against the harms of this world and the next. It is mentioned in a Hadith, "Dua is the essence of ibaadah." How wonderful it would be to invoke, beg, plead and ask from Allah Ta'ala in the very words of His beloved Nabi [PBUH]. Undoubtedly the words of Nabi [PBUH] will have its own noor (light) and barkat (blessings), as compared to making dua in our own words. This book is excellently divided into seven sections, thus making it easier for the reader to recite one section per day. Many of our Akaabir (elders) would instruct their students and mureeds to recite one section daily as part of their ma'moolaat (daily practices). This masterpiece has indeed gained great acceptance in the court of Allah Ta'ala. People all over the world recite these duas daily and gain great solace from these Prophetic Duas. Hadhrat Shaikhul Hadeeth, Moulana Muhammad Zakariyya (rahmatullahi alayh) in particular, was very punctual on its recitation. The 40 durood and salaam has now also been included at the end of the kitaab. May Allah Ta'ala accept this translation and make it a means of idaayat for the ummah as well as Sadaqah-e- Jaariyah for us all. Aameen.
