Commentary on the report of Ibn Mas'ud regarding the tashahhud in prayer, in which it is stated, "When he died, we used to say, 'Peace be upon the Prophet,'" and that this was his independent legal reasoning, which is incorrect independent legal reasoning

The Shaykh : And by this we know that the report of Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) in al-Bukhari: that this was his independent legal reasoning (may Allah be pleased with him), but it is incorrect independent legal reasoning, for two reasons:
The first reason: The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) taught his community:Sunan an-Nasa'i 1171Sahih (Darussalam), and this is until the Day of Resurrection, and it is not possible to change the Prophetic wording.
The second: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab was more knowledgeable in Islamic jurisprudence than Ibn Mas'ud and more learned than Ibn Mas'ud,.
And by this we know that a student of knowledge, whether in hadith or otherwise, should take into account all aspects of the information, without taking one thing and leaving the other, neglecting the other or turning away from it, for this is a deficiency in deriving evidence. Therefore, the hadith came:Sahih Muslim 1037a So Islamic jurisprudence is one thing, and knowledge is another. And it came in a report from Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him): .
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught his community until the Day of Resurrection and did not say, "Say, 'Peace be upon you, O Prophet,' as long as you are alive." He stated it generally, so we state it generally as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) stated it.
And we know that the Companions, when they were saying in the first row behind the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "Peace be upon you," did not intend that it was like the greeting of one who sees with the eye, absolutely not. And this is clear, very clear.
And the statement of Ibn Mas'ud: this does not have the status of being traced to the Prophet. And if we assume that it has the status of being traced to the Prophet, then it has the status of being traced to the Prophet only insofar as it refers to the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), that they used to say "Peace be upon you" during the time of the Messenger. And we agree with this. But after his death, it does not have the status of being traced to the Prophet; it has the status of independent legal reasoning, either hitting the mark or missing it.
Yes, the important thing is to pay attention to the difference between what is witnessed by the heart and what is witnessed by the eye. Yes.
We used to say, while the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was alive: "Peace be upon you, O Prophet," but when he died, we used to say: "Peace be upon the Prophet"
كنا نقول والنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم حي: السلام عليك أيها النبي، فلما مات كنا نقول : السلام على النبيThe first reason: The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) taught his community:
Peace be upon you, O Prophet
السلام عليك أيها النبيThe second: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab was more knowledgeable in Islamic jurisprudence than Ibn Mas'ud and more learned than Ibn Mas'ud,
And it is established from him during his caliphate that he used to teach people the tashahhud on the pulpit, and he would say: "Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings"
وقد ثبت عنه في خلافته أنه كان يعلم الناس التشهد على المنبر، ويقول : السلام عليك أيها النبي ورحمة الله وبركاتهAnd by this we know that a student of knowledge, whether in hadith or otherwise, should take into account all aspects of the information, without taking one thing and leaving the other, neglecting the other or turning away from it, for this is a deficiency in deriving evidence. Therefore, the hadith came:
He upon whom Allah intends to bestow goodness, He confers upon him an insight in religion
من يرد الله به خيراً يفقهه في الدينHow will it be with you when your readers are many and your jurists are few?
كيف بكم إذا كثر قراءكم وقل فقهاءكمThe Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught his community until the Day of Resurrection and did not say, "Say, 'Peace be upon you, O Prophet,' as long as you are alive." He stated it generally, so we state it generally as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) stated it.
And we know that the Companions, when they were saying in the first row behind the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "Peace be upon you," did not intend that it was like the greeting of one who sees with the eye, absolutely not. And this is clear, very clear.
And the statement of Ibn Mas'ud:
We used to say, while the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was alive: "Peace be upon you," but when he died, we said: "Peace be upon the Prophet"
