My dear Islamic brothers! In order to induce blessings in our
virtuous and lawful acts, we should recite bismillahirahma nirraheem Before eating, drinking, putting things down, picking things up, washing, cooking, reading, studying, teaching, walking,
driving, getting up, sitting down, turning on the light, turning
on the fan, laying the dining mat, folding or spreading the bed
sheet, opening the shop, locking or opening the lock, applying
oil or perfume, delivering a speech, reciting a Na’at, wearing
shoes, adorning the ‘Imāmaĥ Sharif, closing or opening the
door, that is to say, before starting any lawful act (where there
is no Shar’ī prohibition), it is a great virtue to develop the habit of reciting bismillahirahma nirraheem in order to earn plentiful bounties.
