The questioner : Is leaving off the sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) from harming Allah and His Messenger?
The Shaykh : And can anyone leave off the sending of blessings upon the Prophet? Will he not pray?
The questioner : Outside of the prayer.
The Shaykh : It is not obligatory. The sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) outside of the prayer is not obligatory. There is disagreement among the scholars regarding it within the prayer; some say it is a pillar, some say it is obligatory, and some say it is a recommended practice.
But I do not think anyone who loves Allah and His Messenger would ever leave off the sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes, so leaving off the sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) outside of the prayer is not from harming Allah and His Messenger.
