One who dies with love of the progeny of Muhammad died as a Martyr. One who dies
with love of the progeny of Muhammad died forgiven. No doubt! The one who dies with
love of the progeny of Muhammad died repented. Behold! One, who dies with love of the
progeny of Muhammad, died a believer with a perfect belief. And no doubt! The one who
dies with love of the progeny of Muhammad, the angle of death gives him the glad tiding
of Paradise, and so do the Munkar and Nakeer. In addition, verily one, who dies with love
of the family of Muhammad, will be led towards the Paradise as the bride is led to the
home of her husband.One, who dies with love of the progeny of Muhammad, there will
open two gates in one’s grave, leading to the Paradise. Moreover, the one who dies with
love of the family of Muhammad, Allah will make one’s grave a sacred place of visit for
the angels of mercy. Verily one, who dies with love of the progeny of Muhammad, has
truly died on Sunnah and Jama’a.
Behold! The one, who dies with the Hatred of the progeny of Muhammad, will arrive on
the Day of Resurrection with a written note on one’s forehead between eyes that the same
is desperate from the Mercy of Allah. Behold! One, who dies with the hatred of the
progeny of Muhammad, died unbeliever.And verily one, who dies with the hatred of the
progeny of Muhammad, will never smell even the smell of Paradise.

Therefore, finally all the above traditions help us decide as to who these “Qurba” (Close-
Relatives or Kin) are! now doubtless to say that they are Aal Muhammed (Progeny of the
Holy Prophet ) whom we send our salutations upon in every regular or Sunna prayer
(salat) as we have come across too many Ahadith in this regard.
And in this connection, there’s a couplet, composed by Abi Abdullah Imam Muhammed
bin Idrees al-Shafaie (RA):
O! Ahl-ul-Baith Muhammed (S.A.W.)!!!
Your Love has been enjoined upon us in Qur’aan!
O! Ahl-ul-Baith Muhammed (S.A.W.)!
What a Grand Importance you have been bestowed upon by Allah with!!! That He
the Lord our God (S.W.T.) has made it obligatory for all Muslims to send salutations
upon you, without which our salaat (prayers) are nullified if we do not do so.
