About Durood Maahi

Darood-e-Mahi:
One day, while the Prophet (P.B.U.H) was sitting in the mosque of Madinah, a villager came. He had a pot in his hand covered with a piece of cloth which he put down before the Prophet (P.B.U.H). The Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) asked "What is in the pot"? He replied O Prophet of Allah (P.B.U.H) I am trying to cook this fish for last three days but fire seems to be totally ineffective over it. It is not cooked nor it receives the effect of fire. Now I have brought it to You, You better know it.
The Prophet (P.B.U.H) asked the fish about this problem. It started speaking by the order of Allah and said Once I was standing in the water where a man was reciting this Darood Sharif, I received his voice in my ears. I myself did nothing. "The Prophet (P.B.U.H) said tell me what was that. The fish recited that Darood Sharif. The Prophet (P.B.U.H) said "O Ali, write down this Darood Sharif and teach it to people, the fire of hell will become Haram (Ineffective) over those who recite it, Insha Allah.
