O Allh, bestow benedictions, peace and blessings upon our liege-
lord Muhammad , his family and companions, in the number
that is in Your Knowledge, such that those benedictions may
continue forever eternal as Your Kingdom. O Allah, Lord of this
perfect call and everlasting prayer, grant our liege-lord
Muhammad the means, eminence, nobility, and the sublime,
ennobled and exalted rank, raise him to the honoured station You
have promised him, grant us his intercession, and let us drink
from his Fountain on the Day of Resurrection. Verily You do not
neglect promises. (Verily Allah and His angels whelm in blessings
the Prophet. O you who profess faith invoke blessings upon him
and give him greetings of Peace.) O Allah, bestow benedictions
and peace upon our liege-lord Muhammad , his family and
companions. And praise be to Allah, Lord of all domains.

Ibn bidn, in his radd al-mutr 1: 397-8 (a.k.a. al-Hshiya or al-Shmi), states:
It is recommended to say, after hearing the first testification [in the adhan]: alla Llhu alaika y Rasla Llh
(May Allah bestow blessings on you, O Messenger of Allah), and after the second of them, qarrat ain bika y Rasla
Llh (May my eyes rejoice with you, O Messenger of Allah). Then one should say, Allhumma ttin bi s-sami wa l-baar
(O Allah, keep blessing me with hearing and sight), after placing the nails of both thumbs on ones eyes, for the
Messenger of Allah will be his guide into the Garden [if he does] as mentioned in kanzu l-ibd, via al-Quhustn
[in his jmi ar-rumz]. This has also been mentioned in al-fatw a-fiyya.
It has been reported in kitbu l-firdaws, Whoever kisses the nails of both thumbs upon hearing ashhadu anna
Muammda r-Rasla Llh, I shall be his guide and shall enter him in the ranks of Janna. The details are in the
awshi l-bar of al-Raml, from al-maqidu l-asana of al-Sakhw. Al-Jirh mentioned this, too, and gave a
lengthy exposition, then said, None of these narrations has been authentically established (lam yai) from the
Messenger of Allah .

by Gods permission, on every
errand: Peace! ... This until

Section on Aqqa:
Aqqa or the sacrificial offering on behalf of a child is a Sunna on the part of either the father or the mother. It
can be offered at any time between the birth of a child and his/her attaining puberty. The Sunna is to make this
offering soon after sunrise on the seventh day after the birth of the child.
The offering consists of the sacrifice of a well-nourished goat or ox. It is Sunna to offer 2 goats on behalf of a
male child. It is Sunna to separate the meat without damage to the bones, and to make gravy with the meat,
adding a little sugar to taste, before distributing it.
It is Sunna to give the right rear limb to the mid-wife, if she is a Muslim. With regards to apportioning the meat,
the rules of Udhhiya apply i.e. allotting a share to oneself, giving a potion away as gift [hadiya], and giving a
potion away in charity [adaqa].

wa lyakhsha l-ladhna law tarak min khalfihim
dhurriyyatan ifan khf alaihim falyattaqu
Llaha wa lyaql qawlan saddan.
Those people should be fearful (in their behaviour towards
orphans) who, if they leave behind some helpless children,
would remain anxious for them. So, they should fear Allah
and say what is right.
