Ruling on adding "and His blessings" to the closing salam of the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Adding "and His blessings" to the salam after finishing the prayer?

Answer:
It appears in some narrations, with weakness in some of them, and the most likely view is to restrict it to "and Allah's mercy," as Samurah narrated, saying: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say:
As-Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullah, as-Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahالسلام عليكم ورحمة الله، السلام عليكم ورحمة الله
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 295Sahih (Darussalam)
.
Q: Is "and His blessings" weak?
The Shaykh: Yes, it is anomalous. The salam from the prayer is to say: "Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy" when one says the salam from the prayer.
As for with people, it is more complete, the salam to people.
