Our Duty Toward the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)

Question:
What is our duty toward our Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and is it sufficient to send many blessings upon him?

Answer:
Answer: Yes, sending blessings upon the Messenger is one of his rights over us, as Allah the Exalted said: “Indeed, Allah and His angels send blessings upon the Prophet. O you who believe, send blessings upon him and offer peace.” He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Whoever sends blessings upon me once, Allah sends blessings upon him ten times.” It has great virtue and is one of his rights (peace and blessings be upon him) over his Ummah. Also, following him and emulating him (peace and blessings be upon him) is obligatory for the Muslim. “Indeed, there has been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent example” meaning a role model, “for whoever hopes for Allah and the Last Day and remembers Allah much.”
