[Ruling on adding (and His blessings) to the closing salam]
His Eminence the Shaykh: Is it better to add (and His blessings) to the closing salam of the prayer, and is there any report of this from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?
The scholars have discussed the hadith regarding this matter. Some scholars, such as al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him), rejected it, stating: It is weak, and it is not relied upon, and (and His blessings) is not added. This is the principle: you do not add (and His blessings) because it is not authentic, and there are numerous hadiths emphasizing the restriction to (and Allah's mercy).
