This Durood Shareef, or Islamic prayer, asks Allah to send blessings and peace upon the prophet Muhammad, his progeny, and companions according to the number of letters in the Quran, with each letter carrying thousands of blessings. Reciting this Durood Shareef three times after reading Quran verses is said to reward the reciter with the same spiritual reward as reciting the entire Quran.

“O Allah! Send your blessings and peace on Muhammad, our Master, and on his Progeny and his
Companions according to the number of every letter in Quran and let each letter carry thousands
of blessings and salutations in it”.
This Durood Shareef is a very sacred one. If it is recited after every prayer, it is said that the
reciter will receive the Sawaab equivalent to the recital of the entire Holy Quran. After reading the
verses of the Holy Quran, this Durood Shareef should be recited 3 times.
