Wa'alaykum 'Assalam wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu



Praise be to Allah who is the Lord of the Worlds, and may Endless Blessings be showered upon His Most Beloved, and Final Messenger of Islam, Hadrat Muhammad Mustafa Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa 'aalihi wa Sallam



Jazak'allah for your question. It is true that one may recite the 'Darood Shareef' in any circumstance. Because the Darood Shareef is a form of 'Ibadah, and is a sunnah of the Almighty, as the Qur'an al kareem states:

'Innallaha wa mala'ikatu hu yusalluna 'alan nabiyy'

'Indeed Allah and His angels send blessings upon the Prophet'

Therefore, it is not fard or wajib to be in a state of wudhu', but it is more excellent if a person was in the state of ablution. Allah the Almighty says:

'Alladhina yadhkurunallaha qiyamaw wa qu'udhann, wa 'ala junubi him'

'Those who remember Allah standing, and sitting, and on their sides'

(Al Imran: 391)

This verse of the Ennobled Qur'an proves that the dhikr of Allah the Almighty can be done standing, sitting, and lying down. Similarly, in certain situations, the same applies for 'Darood Shareef'. But if you have the means of performing wudhu', and having a clean place and clean clothes, and a place to sit respectively, then this method should be adopted. However, there is no reason why we cannot recite 'Darood Shareef' while we are walking.


May Allah the Almighty help us to do as much dhikr of He and His Messenger Hadrat Muhammad Mustafa Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa 'aalihi wa Sallam in life. (Amin)
