Is it permissible to say for other than the prophets: So-and-so, peace and blessings be upon him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to say for other than the prophets, "So-and-so, peace and blessings be upon him"? Because the woman said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "Send blessings upon me and upon my husband."

Answer:
It is permissible, it is permissible to send blessings upon some of the believers, but this should not be adopted as a slogan, as is the case with the Rafidah, who single out 'Ali (peace be upon him) and say, or "peace and blessings be upon him." If this is a slogan for the people of innovation, it is not permissible. However, if a person says it at times without adopting it as a slogan, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
