Authentic Sunnah Part-2
6. Two ruk'ah prayer after ablution: The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wa salam
said: "Whosoever performs ablution like that of mine, then prays two ruk'ah without
having any other concern on his mind, all of his past sins will be forgiven." [Agreed
upon: 159 & 539]
7. Repeating the words of the adhan after the mu'adhdhin then supplicating for the
Prophet (salla Allaahu 'alayhi wa sallam): It is narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah
ibn 'Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Prophet sallallahu 'alayhi
wa salam say: "When you hear the mu'adhdhin (caller to prayer) make the adhaan,
then say what he says, and then supplicate for me, for whoever supplicates for me
once, then Allah will do so for him ten times." [Muslim : 849]
*N.B. The dua to be made after the adhaan is:
‘O Allaah, Owner of this perfect call and Owner of this prayer to be performed, bestow upon
Muhammad al-waseelah and al-fadeelah and send him upon a praised platform which You
have promised him. Verily, You never fail in Your promise.’
8. Frequent use of the Miswaak (tooth stick): It is narrated on the authority of Abu
Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet sallallahu 'alayhi wa
salam said: "If it weren't for causing difficulty for my nation, I would have ordered
the use of the miswaak at every prayer" [Agreed upon : 887/ 589]
9. Going early to the Masjid: It is narrated on the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah
be pleased with him) that the Prophet sallallahu 'alayhi wa salam said: "Were the
people to know [the reward] of going to the masjid early, they would race for it..."
[Agreed upon 981/615]
10. Walking to the masjid: It is narrated on the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be
pleased with him) that the Prophet sallallahu ‘alayhi wa salam said:"Shall I direct you
to that by which Allaah erases [peoples'] sins and raises them in rank?" [The people]
replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allaah." He sallallahu ‘alayhi wa salam said:
"Performing the ablution thoroughly despite odds, frequently walking to the masjid,
and waiting for the prayers from one to the next, and this is a Ribat [1] for you."
[Muslim: 587]
[1] Ribat: Guarding the frontlines of the Muslims, the reward for which is very great.
So in this context, the Prophet sallallahu ‘alayhi wa salam is saying that the reward
for these things is very great.
