The ruling on the mu'adhdhin saying after the adhan: O Allah, send blessings upon our master Muhammad...
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Some people in our area in Jordan and in other countries have the mu'adhdhin say after the adhan: "O Allah, send blessings upon our master Muhammad and upon his family and all his companions." Is there anything wrong with that? What is its ruling?
A: This matter requires detail: If the mu'adhdhin says it in a low voice, then it is prescribed (mashru') for the mu'adhdhin and for others who respond to the mu'adhdhin; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 384 Muslim narrated it in his Sahih, and al-Bukhari narrated in his Sahih from Jabir ibn 'Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih al-Bukhari 614 However, if the mu'adhdhin says it in a raised voice like the adhan, then it is a religious innovation (bid'ah); because it gives the impression that it is part of the adhan, and adding to the adhan is not permissible; because the last word of the adhan is "There is no god but Allah," so it is not permissible to add to that. And if that had been good, the righteous predecessors would have preceded us to it, or rather, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would have taught it to his Ummah and legislated it for them. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 1718b Muslim narrated it in his Sahih, and its original source is in the two Sahihs from the hadith of 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her).
And I ask Allah, the Exalted, to increase us and you and all our brothers in understanding of His religion, and to grant us all steadfastness upon it. Indeed, He is the All-Hearing, the Near. And peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
A: This matter requires detail: If the mu'adhdhin says it in a low voice, then it is prescribed (mashru') for the mu'adhdhin and for others who respond to the mu'adhdhin; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
When you hear the Mu'adhdhin, repeat what he says, then invoke a blessing on me, for everyone who invokes a blessing on me will receive ten blessings from Allah; then beg from Allah al-Wasila for me, which is a rank in Paradise fitting for only one of Allah's servants, and I hope that I may be that one. If anyone who asks that I be given the Wasila, he will be assured of my intercession.
إذا سمعتم المؤذن فقولوا مثل ما يقول ثم صلوا علي فإنه من صلى علي واحدة صلى الله عليه بها عشرا ثم سلوا الله لي الوسيلة فإنها منزلة في الجنة لا تنبغي إلا لعبد من عباد الله وأرجو أن أكون أنا هو فمن سأل لي الوسيلة حلت له الشفاعةWhoever after listening to the Adhan says, 'Allahumma Rabba hadhihi-dda` watit-tammah, was-salatil qa'imah, ati Muhammadan al-wasilata wal-fadilah, wa b`ath-hu maqaman mahmudan-il-ladhi wa`adtahu' [O Allah! Lord of this perfect call (perfect by not ascribing partners to You) and of the regular prayer which is going to be established, give Muhammad the right of intercession and illustriousness, and resurrect him to the best and the highest place in Paradise that You promised him (of)], then my intercession for him will be allowed on the Day of Resurrection
من قال حين يسمع النداء اللهم رب هذه الدعوة التامة والصلاة القائمة آت محمداً الوسيلة والفضيلة وابعثه مقاما محموداً الذي وعدته حلت له شفاعتي يوم القيامةHe who did any act for which there is no sanction from our behalf, that is to be rejected.
من عمل عملا ليس عليه أمرنا فهو ردAnd I ask Allah, the Exalted, to increase us and you and all our brothers in understanding of His religion, and to grant us all steadfastness upon it. Indeed, He is the All-Hearing, the Near. And peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
