Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman, out of her intense love for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), performed 'Umrah on his behalf. Is this action prescribed?

Answer:
This is not prescribed. What is prescribed is to send prayers and blessings upon him, to ask for excellence for him, and to ask for the intercession for him (peace and blessings be upon him). As for acts of worship, he has the same reward as the one who performs them. The Messenger has the same reward as your prayer, your worship, and your charity, because he (peace and blessings be upon him) is the one who guided you to this. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So there is no need for you to offer an act of worship to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), because he has the same reward as yours without you assigning anything to him. This is what Allah has granted him. Yes.
