"Asalam aleikum, Sajad, since the day you shared this salutation (kanzil Azam) upon prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, by maulana Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani qaddas Allahu sirru.  He (Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani qaddas Allahu sirru came to my rescue in the dream last two weeks, the dream goes like this;

It's interesting that Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani qaddas Allahu sirru used Kanzil A‘zam in twice in his other two salawats;

At the beginning of Kibrit al-Ahmar and middle of Salawat al-Kubra and the Salawat Kanzil A'zam opens by asking by Afdala-Best Blessings and Fadl both meaning Favours, Bounties or blessings and also afdalil-khalqi the best of creation.

 

This salawat, from the wird of Shaykh Ghawth al-A’zam Qutb Rabbani, Mahboobi Subhani, Ghawth Samdani Sayyidina Sultan al-Awilya ‘Abdul Qadir Jilani al-Hasani al-Husaini may Allah sanctify his secret, and was especially recommended by  Shaykh Muzaffer Ashki al-Jerrahi of the Nur Ashki Jerrahi Sufi Order  which is a modern dervish order (tariqah) of Sufism. It is a branch of the Halveti-Jerrahi Tariqah of Istanbul, Turkey, may Allah shower his soul with Mercy.

Note: Ghawth al-A’zam a Sultan al-Awilya ‘Abdul Qadir Jilani qaddas Allahu sirru has the unique title  Na’iba Rasulillah-O deputy of Allah’s Messenger peace be upon him, as he Sultan al-Awilya is Ya Sahibal-qadamil-’ali ‘ala raqabati kulli Waliyyin li’llah meaning; The Master of the foot raised over the neck of every saint of Allah!
