Questioned about the tashahhud in prayer: (salaam on the Prophet or salaam upon you, O Prophet)?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The issue of the tashahhud in the matter of the tashahhud, may Allah bless you, you mentioned the hadith of Ibn Abbas and Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she used to teach the sending of blessings upon the Prophet with the words: "Salaam on the Prophet."
The Shaykh : "Salaam on the Prophet" in the third-person form.
The questioner : The third person, yes. In your view regarding the creed, O Shaykh, you did not clarify it much. Do you, for example, prefer this issue over the attribute of presence, "Salaam upon you, O Prophet," or do you not prefer it? You mentioned both narrations and authenticated them, but you did not prefer one over the other from the Sunnah.
Another questioner : The Shaykh : He preferred [one] in the issue of Ibn Mas'ud.
The Shaykh : No, that is not his question.
The questioner : Yes, so what is your view?
The Shaykh: Did you hear what your neighbor said?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh: Did you hear what your neighbor said?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Are you going around this statement?
The questioner : I am going around the issue of...
The Shaykh : Do not say "going around," do not say it. Say "going around" or not.
The questioner : Around it, around it.
The Shaykh : Hehehe, may Allah bless you.
Another questioner : There is a disagreement, our Shaykh, around it.
The Shaykh: No, there is no disagreement, but custom prevails.
The questioner : Allah is the Revealer.
The Shaykh : He said, "I think he preferred it," and his thought is the thought of a believer, but that is not your research, in my opinion. So what is your opinion?
The questioner : My opinion, may you live long, is that this is an issue, may Allah bless your life, an issue of whether the matter of "Salaam on the Prophet" in the third-person form has a relation to the creed or not, and nothing else, regarding the choice of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and the choice of Ibn Abbas, for example, the issue of...
The Shaykh : Yes, yes, I am coming.
