Swalaatul Ruh
The Salutation (for the Deliverance) of the Soul [salatu-r ruh] is customarily recited at the
graveyard, especially at the final resting abodes of ones parents, ancestors, relatives and
teachers.
It is also known as durud-e-dawami. A shorter version without the first three lines is known
as durud-e-shifa. Extracts of this benediction also appear in the Salawatcompendium of
Imam al-Jazuli,Dalailu-l Khayrat.
Many spiritual guides have stated that this salutation is equivalent to 1,000 salawat. Our
Shaikhuna Dr. Taika Shuaib al-Kirkari al-Siddiqi has mentioned the following benefits in
relation to this salutation in his prayer book, Al-Munjiyat:
Reciting it once is equal to reciting the whole of theDalailu-l Khayrat Reciting it 3 times at a graveyard will provide its occupants relief from the trials of the
grave for 80 years
Reciting it 4 times protects the dead from all tribulations of the grave till the Day ofJudgement.
Reciting it 24 times for ones parents would deem one to have discharged ones dutiesto them. Such parents would be visited by a thousand angels
Reciting it daily brings about purification of the heart, immense beneficial effects onthe body and soul, and an exalted position here and in the hereafter
Success is from Allah.

O Allh, invoke benedictions upon the praised one till Your benedictions are completed,
Your mercy is exhausted, and Your blessings are fulfilled.
And whelm the soul of the praised one, from amongst all spirits, with Your choicest
benedictions; ennoble the appearance of the praised one, from amongst all forms, with Your
choicest benedictions; exalt the name of the praised one, from amongst all appellations, with
Your choicest benedictions; exalt the quintessence of the praised one, from amongst all
essence, with Your choicest benedictions; illuminate the heart of the praised one, from
amongst all bosoms, with Your choicest benedictions; enwrap the resting abode of the
praised one, from amongst all graves, with Your choicest benedictions; shower the garden of
the praised one, from amongst all fields, with Your choicest benedictions; clothe the body of
the praised one, from amongst all beings, with Your choicest benedictions; perfume the dust
of the praised one, from amongst all earth, with Your choicest benedictions; and honour the
nation of the praised one, from amongst all people, with Your choicest benedictions.
May Allh invoke benedictions, bestow peace, and shower blessings upon the best of His
Creation, our liege-lord Muhammad, and on his pure family, noble companions, faithful
wives, blessed progeny, protected household, and ardent lovers. Through Your Mercy, O
Most Merciful of the merciful. And praise be to Allh, Lord of all the Worlds.
And Allah is the Guide.
