The Prayer of Blessing on Other Than the Prophets and Making It a Slogan
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Abu al-Shaykh, may Allah love you, the prayer of blessing and the prayer of blessing upon any of the messengers in the rest of the table, such as the explicit statement here, peace and blessings be upon him.
The Shaykh:
I advise against that, except if it is adopted as a slogan for certain individuals. Adopting this as a slogan for certain individuals, as the Shi'ah do regarding 'Ali and their imams specifically, is not permissible. However, if it is not adopted as a slogan, there is no harm. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih al-Bukhari 6332 So, if it is not adopted as a slogan for specific people, there is nothing wrong with it.
The questioner:
And it is not in you or in your capacity, O Allah.
The Shaykh:
Therefore, the author said, as you heard, "May Allah send blessings upon him and his family and his Companions, and upon everyone who worships," meaning, may Allah send blessings upon everyone who worships.
