Q: Over Radio Islam or Chanel Islam or any gathering we frequently hear the recitation of 40 Duroods. I have only come across the mention and benefits of reading 100 or 1000 Durood. Where is it written in the hadith kitaabs or made mention specifically of 40 Duroods and what are the benefits of reading specifically 40 Durood?

Q: Is there any Durood Sharif called Durood-e-hada (I may have pronounced it wrong). Someone informed me that it has great merits if recited before someone’s grave.
