Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh :Sunan an-Nasa'i 1171Sahih (Darussalam) to the end of it.
What are the greetings and what is their meaning? The scholars said: "A greeting is any phrase by which the one being greeted is honored". So the meaning of "the greetings are for Allah" is that all acts of honoring are for Allah (Mighty and Majestic), as He is the one who deserves them and is exclusively entitled to them. Allah the Exalted is the one who deserves honor, and He is the one exclusively entitled to the honor that no other honor resembles. What are the prayers? The prayers are the greetings for Allah and the prayers. What are the prayers? The known prayer, which is the first thing one enters into, is the prayer you are currently in. The prayers include all five daily prayers, Jumu'ah, witr, voluntary prayers, and others; none of them are deserved by anyone but Allah (Mighty and Majestic), including the prayer you are performing right now.
What are they? Are they the good attributes by which Allah (Mighty and Majestic) is described, or the good things that we do, or both? Both. "The good things are for Allah" means the good attributes and descriptions belong to Allah (Mighty and Majestic). As the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 1015. Every good thing, whether in speech, action, or description, belongs to Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Allah speaks the truth and guides to the right path. Likewise, the good things from us are for Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and Allah accepts them. As for the bad things from us, Allah will not accept them, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 1015.
