One day the Prophet (S.A.W.S.) was sitting in his mosque when two, clean, handsome young men appeared. They gave salams. Where are you coming from? the Prophet (S.A.W.S.) asked. We come from long ago, they answered. We worshipped Allah long ago and we heard of words more beautiful than any others that ever exosted. From all of Allahs 124,000 Books these were reported to be the most beautiful, and they would only appear at the end of time, in the last Book of all. So we worshipped one thousand years until Allah asked what gift He could give us. We asked to please to hear those beautiful words, the surat al-Fatihah. Allah gave them no answer. So they prayed another one thousand years. Then Allah answered them. He said, This surat is only for My Beloved Muhammad (S.A.W.S.) and his community. The men prayed another one thousand years until Allah again asked them what gift He could give them. They replied, Since we cannot be given al-Fatihah then let us live long enough to be part of his community, to greet him, and hear al-Fatihah, even if only once. Then we will be content to die. These two men were Khidr (A.S.) and Ilyas (A.S.). They made Shahada with the Prophet (S.A.W.S.) and with that they were content. They were no longer Prophets but just members of the umma/community of Muhammad (S.A.W.S.). They asked him please to recite al-Fatihah for them. He recited for them and then they recited with him. Then they said together, Amin, which means, O Allah please accept our prayer. They asked, O Rasulullah, what is the reward of reading al-Fatihah? If Allah gave me life until the end of time it would not be enough to tell you all the benefits, answered the Prophet (sas). So I will tell you the benefits of the Amin. Alif is written on the Throne of Allah (arsh). Mim is on His footstool (kursi). Ya is on the preserved Tablet (lawh). Nun is on the pen (qalam). The four come together in Amin.

Tell us more, said the two men. Alif is written on the forehead of Israfil (as). Mim is written on the forhead of Mikail (as). Ya is written on the forhead of Jibrail (as). Nun is written on the forehead of Azrail (as). Whoever says Amin takes benefit from these four angels. Please tell us more, they said. Alif is written in the Torah. Mim is written in the Zabour. Ya is written in the Injil. Nun is written in the Quran. Whoever says sincerely Amin after al-Fatihah it is as if he had read all four books. Do you want more? Oh yes, they said. Alif is written on the forehead of S. Abu Bakr (R.A.) Mim is written on S. Omar (R.A.). Ya is written on S. Uthman (R.A.). Nun is written on S. Ali (R.A.). Whoever says the Amin takes benefit from these four Sahaba. The two men were about to make dua to ask Allah to take their souls because their wish had been fulfilled when the Prophet (S.A.W.S.) stopped them. He said, Allah gave you long life and power My umma is weak and they need you. So Allah gave them long life to serve the umma of S. Muhammad (s.A.W.S.), Ilyas (A.S.) on the sea and Khidr (A.S.) on the land Written by Hajja Anne Amina Adil al-Haqqani (May Allah keep us in her saintly company forever)
