Islam enjoins the ummah to remember Rasulullah Shallallahu 'Alaihi Wassalam by reciting the selawat, as selawat is a form of supplication praises towards Rasulullah. The Friday Sermon shared the virtues and benefits of reciting selawat. A person who recite the selawat will be granted mercy, their sins forgiven, and status elevated.

Apart from that, supplications will be answered more quickly, and it can cleanse the heart and mind from daily struggles. Reciting the selawat may also lead to good health, protection from calamity, and healing from illness with Allah's permission. In addition, it can also increase and bless a person's sustenance.
