Is it permissible to repeat the greeting to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when visiting the Prophet's Mosque?

The questioner:
May Allah the Exalted reward you with good. This questioner says: If I visit the Prophet's Mosque, is it the recommended practice (sunnah) to repeat the greeting to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?

The Shaykh:
The people of the Sunnah and the community.

The questioner:
Repeating the greeting to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh:
No, one does not repeat the greeting to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Rather, you greet him the first time you approach. When you arrive from a journey, you pray two units of prayer in the mosque as the greeting of the mosque, then you go and greet the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his two companions. This is sufficient, and you do not repeat it, because the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) did not repeat the greeting to the Prophet every time they entered, because he forbade them from doing so. He said: "Do not take my grave as a festival."
"Do not take my grave as a festival," and the meaning of that is that you do not repeat visiting it and gathering at it. Rather, when a person arrives from a journey, he greets the Messenger once and his two companions, and this is sufficient. Yes.
