The origin of sending salam to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people, when they want to go to visit the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), have someone say to them, “Convey my salam to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).” Is there a basis for this?
Answer:
Glory be to Allah. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Send your prayers upon me wherever you are, for your prayers reach me.” So there is no need for you to instruct someone to send prayers upon him while you are in the East or the West; your prayers and salam will reach him. Yes.
