Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : If a person enters the Prophet's Mosque after the death of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), does he keep in mind etiquette out of respect for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in his lifetime and the characteristics?
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes, in his lifetime, from the characteristics established for him that are not for anyone else, like what, for example?
The questioner : I mean, Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) says:[An-Nur 24:63]
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
The questioner : Like raising the voice, and like respect
The Shaykh : Yes, there is no doubt that respect is required. For this reason, when 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) heard two men from the people of Ta'if raising their voices in the Prophet's Mosque, he rebuked them and said: "If you were from the people of this city, I would have beaten you severely" or words to that effect
The questioner : But this, may Allah reward you with good, is respect for the mosque, not respect for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
The Shaykh : Out of respect for the mosque, and also at the grave of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), the scholars say that one should not be rude in conduct. However, regarding the verse you mentioned, it is not intended to apply when entering the mosque. There are two opinions among the scholars regarding[An-Nur 24:63]. The first is that if the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) calls you, you should respond to him and not make his call like the calls of one another, where you may answer if you wish or not. The second opinion is that you should not make your call to him like the way you call one another; that is, when you call him, do not say "O Muhammad" as some of you do to one another, but rather say "O Messenger of Allah" or "O Prophet of Allah" or something similar.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good
Another questioner: ...
The Shaykh : Ah?
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes, if he is in an Islamic country, he is not excused because it must be known to them, or at least he should look into it. But if we suppose he is in a non-Muslim country and it is their custom to do so, and it does not occur to him that this is shirk (associating partners with Allah), then he is excused. But if it is said to him that this is shirk, he must look into it and not say, "By Allah, we have been doing this." Rather, he must look into it. If he does not do so, he has been negligent and has no excuse. And this is what Muhammad ibn 'Abdullah Muhammad says

The Shaykh : Yes, in his lifetime, from the characteristics established for him that are not for anyone else, like what, for example?
The questioner : I mean, Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) says:
Do not make [your] calling of the Messenger among yourselves as the call of one of you to another.
لا تجعلوا دعاء الرسول بينكم كدعاء بعضكم بعضاThe Shaykh : Yes, indeed.
