Durood after Asr Salat on Friday

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by ShariahBoard.org

Assalamualaikum, 

There is a Hadith which says that this Durood after Asr Salat on Friday if recited 80 times, the sins of 80 years will be forgiven and reward of 80 years of worship will be obtained. Is this Hadith authentic or not, and what does it mean by 80 years of sins, Sagheerah or Kabeerah sins? What does it mean that reward of 80 years of worship will be given?

الجواب وباللہ التوفیق

  1. The Muhaddithin have objected on it in relevance to the chain of narration, however, the ضعف (weakness) in it is not to the level that it would be deemed موضوع or non-trustworthy, therefore, according to the rules it can be acted upon.
  2. In the meaning of this kind of Ahadith the Ulama have meant minor sins.
  3. This is the glory of the ربوبیت of Allaah Ta’alaa and He is all empowering. His generosity and benevolence are limitless. The day of Jumua’h is the chief of all days. It is full of blessing and is a great day, therefore, if Allaah Ta’alaa bestows on any action according to His grace then it is not a bit beyond His قدرت

  5. يَا عِبَادِى لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ قَامُوا فِى صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ فَسَأَلُونِى فَأَعْطَيْتُ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ مَسْأَلَتَهُ مَا نَقَصَ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا عِنْدِى إِلاَّ كَمَا يَنْقُصُ الْمِخْيَطُ إِذَا أُدْخِلَ الْبَحْرَ يَا عِبَادِى إِنَّمَا هِىَ أَعْمَالُكُمْ أُحْصِيهَا لَكُمْ ثُمَّ أُوَفِّيكُمْ إِيَّاهَا فَمَنْ وَجَدَ خَيْرًا فَلْيَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ وَمَنْ وَجَدَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ فَلاَ يَلُومَنَّ إِلاَّ نَفْسَهُ ».(صحیح مسلم)۔
