The Listening Power of an Angel

The Peer of the realm of the Universe [Huzoor Saiyyid -e-Aalam] Beloved Holy Prophet’s (Sallal Laahu ‘Alaiehi Wa Sallam) grandeur is very elevated, the condition of his [Holy Prophet’s Sallal Laahu ‘Alaiehi Wa Sallam] courtiers is such that the Holy Prophet [Sallal Laahu ‘Alaiehi Wa Sallam] himself says:

“That undoubtedly there is an angel of Almighty Allaah who has been given the hearing power of all the creatures. And he will remain positioned at my blessed grave from my demise until the Day of Judgement, which ever amidst my Ummatee will recite Durood upon me. That Angel will take his name and the name of his father and will say, O Muhammad [Sallal Laahu ‘Alaiehi Wa Sallam] so and so, son of so and so has sent Durood on you, this way in these words.”
