The ruling on bringing a newborn to a scholar or a worshipper to seek his blessing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: It was mentioned to us that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to be brought children, and he would place them in his lap, seek blessing for them, and make du'a for them. Is it prescribed now that a child be brought at his birth to a scholar or a worshipper to seek his blessing and have him make du'a for him?

Answer:
No, this was a specific attribute of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), because the saliva of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is special; it is not like the saliva of others. Yes.
