Is it permissible to send blessings and peace upon the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) alone, without the other prophets?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: The prophets and messengers, except for our Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh:
What?

The questioner:
Except for our Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)?

The Shaykh:
If "except" (ghayra) is followed by a preposition, it governs the accusative case for the word that follows it. However, if "except" is used without a preposition, it is attached to the word that follows it and takes the genitive case.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding the prophets and messengers, except for our Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), do we send blessings and peace upon them, or is it sufficient to send only blessings?

The Shaykh:
One sends blessings and peace upon them. Yes.
