The ruling on announcing the sending of blessings upon the Prophet during the sermon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And the like of that. So we take the framework, because one person said. It brings the poem close to the two Maghrebis, Safa, not Hayama on the head, then she stood up and recites what the two callers seek to approach through the lovers of work, so is there no weeping for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) or not? He says: Abu Muslim, if this is the case, and a hadith of Ahmad, may Allah have mercy on him, has been answered, that the descent is that one should send blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at the beginning of the assembly.
The Shaykh:
Makhli means light.
The questioner:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at the beginning and the end, after the prostration for forgetfulness.
The Shaykh:
I mean the announcement, the announcement of sending blessings upon the Prophet. The announcement is to be made at the beginning of the sermon. As for sending blessings upon the Prophet during the sermon, between him and himself, that is not what we intend. Rather, the announcement that is made is part of the sermon, and this does not occur except at its beginning, after the praise of Allah and the testimony of faith. This is the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). As for shortening the sermon by announcing the sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), or saying "Send blessings upon Muhammad," this is a religious innovation (bid'ah). It is not reported that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did this in the sermon, nor did the Caliphs, nor do we know of anyone who did. Rather, the announcement of sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is at the beginning of the sermon, after the praise of Allah and the testimony of faith. As for him, or the attendees, sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the occasion, between themselves, this is prescribed (mashru'). But we do not deny this; rather, we deny the announcement and making it part of the sermon.
