Question:
Is the addition of "and His blessings" in the closing salam of the prayer valid?
Answer:
There are hadiths regarding this. Al-Hafiz mentioned in *Bulugh al-Maram* that they are authentic, but a group of others said they are anomalous. Therefore, it is preferable to restrict oneself to "and the mercy of Allah," as is the current practice, because this is what is established in *Sahih Muslim* from the hadith of Samurah: "When they said the salam, they would say: Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah, in the prayer."
