translation  and interpretation try to understand its meaning and promise to act upon it.
Recite as much Salutations and Durood ….as possible.

Monday”.(Muslim Shareef)

at least increase the return time of the loan.

(Sallal Laahu ‘Alaiehi Wa Sallam)  said, that, “When a Muslim plants a tree, till the time people will eat its
fruits, and  sit under its shade, till that time it will be continuous charity for that
person.”  Nowadays planting a tree is also beneficial for the betterment of the
environment.
