The ruling on addressing the Prophet with the phrase: "O Messenger of Allah, we sacrifice ourselves for you"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Then he asks: Is it permissible for us, the people of the Sunnah, to say in support of our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "O Messenger of Allah, we sacrifice our souls for you," or words like these that address the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) as "O Messenger of Allah," or should we simply show respect?

Answer:
It is not reported that the Messenger is addressed after his death, except for what is reported in the tashahhud of the prayer: "O Prophet, and may Allah's mercy and blessings be upon you." This is specific, so we restrict ourselves to what has been reported and do not add from ourselves. Yes.
