The ruling on sending blessings upon the Companions following the Prophet

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, what is your view of the one who says that sending blessings upon the Companions following the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is an invented innovation?

Answer:
This indicates that it is from the saying of the Rafidah who hate the Companions. They hate the Companions. So the Companions are sent blessings upon with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and one seeks Allah’s pleasure for them, because Allah was pleased with them and satisfied them, so one sends blessings upon them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . O Allah, send blessings upon the family of . So sending blessings upon the Companions, they are more deserving than anyone else after the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). So let no one say that one does not send blessings upon them except a vile Rafidi. Yes.
