Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ya’qub ibn ‘Abd Allah from Ishaq ibn Farrukh Mawla Ale Talhah who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) once said, ‘O Ishaq ibn Farrukh, whoever asks from Allah al-Salat (favors) for the Holy Prophet and his family ten times, Allah and His angels will do the same for him one hundred times.

Whoever asks from Allah al-Salat for the Holy Prophet and his family one hundred times, Allah and His angels will do the same for him one thousand times. Do you not hear the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, “It is He who forgives you and His angels pray for you so that He will take you out of darkness into light. Allah is All-Merciful to believers.’” (33:43) جهول - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (12/100))
