The ruling on sending blessings upon the Prophet in a state of forgetfulness
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Your Eminence! It happens among many people that when one of them forgets, he says: O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad.
Knowing that he intends it as dhikr (remembrance of Allah), is this permissible?And if you say to him: Dhikr is the remembrance of Allah. It is said to be taken from "the good dhikr"?
Or if he sees something, he says: "O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad." As for the first one, I do not know a basis for it, and there is no connection between sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and remembering him.O Allah, except if he says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned that whoever makes his sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) [a regular practice], his worries will be relieved.
But taking this from that hadith is a stretch. It is better, when one forgets something, to remember Allah.
