Ibn Mas`ud (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "The people who will be nearest to me on the Day of Resurrection will be those who supplicate Allah more often for me."[At-Tirmidhi].
Commentary:
"Nearest to me" signifies "those who are most entitled to my intercession". Thus, this Hadith has also an inducement for very frequent recitation of Salat on the Prophet (PBUH).
