Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people say, “Blessing visited us,” or they say, “Long live the one who saw you.” Is there any religious prohibition in this?
Answer:
There is exaggeration in this; there is exaggeration. And a person may become pleased with himself because of this statement. This is what was not on the person’s face, and from this he may be led to self-admiration and so on. Yes. And blessing is from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
