Attahiyat is a very important ‘Dua’ we repeat in our daily prayers.
When I learnt the importance of this, it melted my heart.
Attahiyat is actually a part of the conversation between Our Creator Allah SWT, and our beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW during his journey of Al Isra Wal Miraj. …
When Prophet Muhammad SAW met Allah SWT, he didn’t say ‘Assalam aleikum’.
What is someone going to say when he meets Allah SWT? We can’t wish HIM peace because ALL sources of peace are through
So Prophet Muhammad SAW said:
“Attahiyyaatu Lillahi Was Salawatu Wattayyibatu” (All compliments, all prayer and worship are for Allah)
Allah SWT replied:
“Assalamu Alaika Ayyuhannabiyyu ‘Warahmatullahi Wabarka’tuhu” (Peace be upon you, Oh Prophet and Allah’s Mercy and Blessings).
