The duty of the Muslim community toward their Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
There is another point. He says: Shaykh, what is the duty of the Ummah toward their Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
The duty of the Muslim community, which is obligatory upon them toward their Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), is to acknowledge his message and testify to it. Thus, the testimony that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah comes after the testimony that there is no god but Allah. This is declared in the adhan, in the sermons, and in social interactions. This indicates his right (peace and blessings be upon him) over us and his excellence over creation, for Allah has preferred him over all other creation and made him the Seal of the Prophets. He has many virtues. Al-Hafiz mentioned them in *Al-Shifa fi Huquq al-Mustafa*. One should refer to it. Qadi Iyad (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned them in a book titled *Al-Shifa fi Huquq al-Mustafa* (The Healing in the Rights of the Chosen One) (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah bless you.
