Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. We have learned that the best form of sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the Ibrahimiyyah (Abrahamic) form. Some scholars have said that the one who sends blessings but does not send peace upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has not fulfilled the command completely. Is this statement correct?
Answer:
He has not fulfilled part of the command, but the perfection is to send blessings and peace upon him. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Ahzab 33:56]

O you who have believed, ask [Allah to confer] blessing upon him and ask [Allah to grant him] peace.
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا
