As the blessed day of the 12th of Rabi al-Awwal dawns, believers around the world celebrate the arrival of the Mercy to all the worlds, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. On Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi it is a tradition of the great Sufi masters to bestow spiritual gifts upon their students and the Ummah. Below is one such gift — a simple Eid Milad wazifa for protection transmitted from a spiritual pole of the Indian subcontinent: the Qutb-e-Zaman, Sayyid Shah Muhammad Ghouse Gwaliori Shattari (rahmatullahi alayh).
Who Was Shaykh Muhammad Ghouse Gwaliori (RH)?
To value the gift, one should know the giver. Shaykh Muhammad Ghouse Gwaliori (RH) was a profound spiritual master of the renowned Shattari Silsila (Sufi order), whose lineage connects back to the great Khwaja Farid al-Din Attar. A celebrated author of the esoteric sciences, his works — including the famous Jawahir-e-Khamsa (The Five Jewels) — are still studied by seekers today. His blessed shrine in Gwalior remains a place of pilgrimage and spiritual blessing.
It is related within the tradition of the order that, out of his spiritual certainty, the Shaykh said of this practice:
“Whoever performs this amal on the 12th of Rabi al-Awwal and does not receive its benefits may hold me accountable on the Day of Judgement.”
A saying transmitted through the Shattari tradition
Such words reflect the deep conviction of a Friend of Allah in the blessings of this day. As with all spiritual practice, the true benefit rests with Allah alone.
The Eid Milad Wazifa: Method
This amal may be performed at any time on the day of Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi — from the dawn of the 12th of Rabi al-Awwal until night. It takes only a few moments.
- Begin with purity. Perform wudu (ablution) and sit in a clean, quiet place facing the Qibla.
- Recite Durood Sharif 11 times. Send blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ by reciting any Durood/Salawat.
- Recite the blessed Names of Allah 11 times:
Ya Allahu, Ya Rahmanu, Ya Ghafuru, Ya Rahimu, Ya Hannanu, Ya Mannanu, Ya Dayyanu, Ya Subhanu
- Conclude with Durood Sharif 11 times. Send blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ one final time.

The Promised Rewards of This Amal
According to the teaching passed down with this practice, its spiritual fruits are considerable:
- A year of protection. The one who performs this amal with sincere faith seeks, by the will of Allah, a shield of divine protection from calamities, difficulties, and spiritual harm throughout the coming year.
- Hope for a good end and Paradise. This wazifa is built upon abundant durood (salawat) upon the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever sends one blessing upon me, Allah sends ten blessings upon him in return” (Sahih Muslim 408). Through such devotion, the seeker hopes for Allah’s mercy, the Prophet’s intercession, and entry into Paradise.
On this blessed Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi, embrace this gift from the Awliya. Perform the amal, teach it to your family, and share it with others. May Allah, for the sake of His Beloved Prophet ﷺ and His righteous saints, accept it from us all. Ameen.
Note on sources: the specific promises attached to this practice are transmitted through the tradition of the Shattari order. They are shared here as devotional teaching. Sincere love of the Prophet ﷺ, abundant salawat, and reliance on Allah are the established means of nearness to Him; the ultimate outcome of any amal rests with Allah alone.
