Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: There are those who say that the salawat upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) does not reach him, but only its reward reaches him. What is your opinion of this statement?
Answer:
This contradicts the hadith. The hadith states that the salawat upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reaches him through the medium of an angel. Allah assigned an angel to convey to him the salam of His ummah.
