Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, among the questions, Shaykh Salih, this questioner says: Is it permissible for one person to say to another, “O Allah, send blessings upon so-and-so,” or is the sending of blessings exclusive to the Prophets (peace and blessings be upon them)?
Answer:
Yes, it is permissible. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Ibn Majah 1796Sahih (Darussalam) It is permissible to send blessings upon other than the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but this should not be adopted as a specific slogan for certain individuals. Rather, it is said as a form of supplication for them, and there is no harm in that. Yes.
