What is the ruling on sending blessings upon the Prophet after the adhan?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And peace be upon you.
The questioner : How are you, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah.
The questioner : We wanted to ask you a question if there is room for it.
The Shaykh : Briefly.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. We want the ruling on sending blessings upon the Prophet after the adhan, if there is room for it.
The Shaykh : What have you heard regarding the ruling of Allah in this matter?
The questioner : No, by Allah.
The Shaykh : Strange! Have you heard of the mu'adhdhin Bilal al-Habashi?
The questioner : Yes, I have heard of him.
The Shaykh : And do you know that he added to his saying "La ilaha illa Allah" at the end of the adhan, or do you not know?
The questioner : I did not ask.
The Shaykh : I am asking you: do you know or do you not know?
The questioner : I do not know.
The Shaykh : Know that the adhan which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) taught to Bilal, 'Amr ibn Umm Maktum, and Abu Mahdhurah, and which all Muslims follow, ends with "La ilaha illa Allah." And the Muslims, including the four imams, the four hundred, and however many imams of the Muslims you count, none of them used to call the adhan in a way that differed from the adhan of Bilal al-Habashi. And the Muslims continued throughout the three centuries known for their virtue without adding anything to Bilal's adhan, which ends with "La ilaha illa Allah." Do you know now?
The questioner : Yes, I know now. May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : And you, if Allah wills.
The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The Shaykh : And peace be upon you.
The questioner : How are you, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah.
