The ruling on the khatib ordering the people to send blessings upon the Prophet at the end of the khutbah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the khatib orders the people at the end of the khutbah to send blessings and peace upon the Prophet, and mentions the verses regarding that, is this an innovation?
Answer:
Yes, this is an innovation. But if the mention of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) passes in the khutbah, you send blessings and peace upon him. However, if the khatib orders them, saying "Send blessings upon the Prophet, play around a bit, send blessings upon the Prophet," this is an innovation. But if he recites the verse[Al-Ahzab 33:56], that is a different matter; that is reciting the verse. But if he says, "Send blessings upon the Prophet, every now and then send blessings upon the Prophet," this is from the beginning. Yes.

Indeed, Allah confers blessing upon the Prophet, and His angels [ask Him to do so]. O you who have believed, ask [Allah to confer]
