Question:
This questioner says: What is the ruling on seeking blessing from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and did the Companions do this?
Answer:
As for seeking blessing from the body of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), or from what was separated from him, such as sweat, hair, or saliva, this is permissible and prescribed. The Companions used to seek blessing from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), from his saliva, his sweat, and his clothes; they used to seek blessing from these. However, no one seeks blessing from anyone other than the Messenger, nor from their traces. They did not seek blessing from the traces of Abu Bakr, 'Umar, or 'Uthman (may Allah be pleased with them). This is a specific attribute of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
