The questioner : The female questioner, Layla al-Ghamidi from al-Bahah, says: I am asking about this hadith of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever sends blessings upon me a thousand times in a day will not die until he sees his place in Paradise". Is this hadith authentic?
The Shaykh : It is not authentic. However, there is no doubt that increasing the sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) is good for a person. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) informed us that whoever sends blessings upon him once, Allah will send blessings upon him ten times in return. So increase in the remembrance of Allah and increase in sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), for that is better. Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, said:[Ali 'Imran 3:190-191]. Yes.
