عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: إن لله سيارة من الملائكة إذا مروا بحلق الذكر قال بعضهم لبعض: اقعدوا فإذا دعا القوم أمنوا على دعائهم فإذا صلوا على النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم صلوا معهم حتى يفرغوا ثم يقول بعضهم لبعض: طوبى لهؤلاء يرجعون مغفورا لهم رواه أبو القاسم التيمي في ترغيبه (القول البديع ص258)
Hazrat Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه reports that Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “Indeed Allah Ta‘ala has certain angels which roam throughout the earth. When they pass by the gatherings of zikr, the angels say to one another, ‘Let us sit in this gathering.’ Thereafter, when the people of the gathering make du‘aa, the angels say ‘Aameen’ to their du‘aa, and when they recite durood upon Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم, the angels recite durood with them, until their gathering of zikr terminates. At that point, the angels say to one another, ‘Glad tidings to these people, they are returning with all their (minor) sins forgiven!’”

Reflections
In life, we find many types of gatherings. Some attract the Malaikah and mercy of Allah Ta’ala. Others draw wrath and punishment. A believer should always search and participate in the gatherings of mercy. On the other hand, he must completely disassociate and distance himself from gatherings of misery.
May Allah Ta’ala inspire us all to make the correct choices. Ameen
يَا رَبِّ صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمَاً أَبَدًا عَلَى حَبِيْبِكَ خَيْرِ الْخَلْقِ كُلِّهِمِ
“O Sustainer, shower Salaat and Salaam forever and ever upon Your beloved, who is the best of all creation.”
جَزَی اللہُ عَنَّا نَبِيَّنَا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْه وسَلَّمَ بِمَا هُوَ أَھْلُهُ
May Allah Ta’ala جل جلاله reward our Nabi Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم on our behalf such a reward that is due to Him.
