بَابُ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَفَضْلِهَاSending Blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ and Its Virtue
قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّوَجَلَّ: ﴿إِنَّ اللهَ وَمَلَتَبِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّوْنَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا )
(الأحزاب: ٥٦
Allah, the Almighty, says: "Indeed, Allah and His angels send blessings upon the Prophet. O you who have believed, send blessings upon him and greet him with peace." (Al-Ahzab: 56)
عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا رَسُوْلُ اللهِ ﷺ قَاعِدٌ، إِذْ دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ فَصَلَّى، فَقَالَ: اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي وَارْحَمْنِي، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «عَجَّلْتَ أَيُّهَا الْمُصَلِّي، إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ فَقَعَدْتَ فَاحْمَدِ اللهَ بِمَا هُوَ أَهْلُهُ، وَصَلَّ عَلَيَّ، ثُمَّ ادْعُهُ».
قَالَ: ثُمَّ صَلَّى رَجُلٌ آخَرُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَصَلَّى عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: أَيُّهَا الْمُصَلَّى ، ادْعُ تُجَبْ». رَوَاهُ التَّرْمِذِيُّ، وَرَوَى أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالنَّسَائِيُّ نَحْوَهُ.
Fadala bin ‘Ubaid (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting, a man entered and prayed. Then he said, ‘O Allah, forgive me and have mercy on me.’ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘You have hurried, O worshipper! When you pray and then sit, first praise Allah as He deserves, then send blessings upon me, and then supplicate.’"
He continued: "Then another man prayed after that. He praised Allah and sent blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ said to him: ‘O worshipper, ask and you will be given.’" [Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi, and a similar narration was narrated by Abu Dawood and Al-Nasa’i]
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْن مَسْعُودٍ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ : كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ مَعَهُ، فَلَمَّا جَلَسْتُ بَدَأْتُ بِالثَّنَاءِ عَلَى اللهِ تَعَالَى، ثُمَّ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، ثُمَّ دَعَوْتُ لِنَفْسِي، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ : سَلْ تُعْطَهُ، سَلْ تُعْطَهُ». رَوَاهُ التَّرْمِذِيُّ.
‘Abdullah bin Mas‘ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I was praying while the Prophet ﷺ, Abu Bakr, and ‘Umar were with him. When I sat, I began by praising Allah, then I sent blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ, and then I supplicated for myself. The Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Ask, and you will be given. Ask, and you will be given.’" [Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi]
وَعَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ: إِنَّ الدُّعَاءَ مَوْقُوْفُ بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ، لَا يَصْعَدُ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى تُصَلِّي عَلَى نَبِيِّكَ. رَوَاهُ التَّرْمِذِيُّ.
‘Umar bin Al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Indeed, supplication remains suspended between heaven and earth, and nothing of it ascends until you send blessings upon your Prophet." [Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi]
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى قَالَ: لَقِيَنِي كَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ(رضي الله عنه) فَقَالَ: أَلَا أُهْدِي لَكَ هَدِيَّةٌ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ: بَلَى، فَأَهْدِهَا لِي. فَقَالَ: سَأَلْنَا رَسُوْلَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُوْلَ اللهِ، كَيْفَ الصَّلَاةُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ؛ فَإِنَّ اللهَ قَدْ عَلَّمَنَا كَيْفَ نُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكَ.
قَالَ: «قُوْلُوْا: اللهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ، إِلَّا أَنَّ مُسْلِمًا لَمْ يَذْكُرُ: عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ» فِي الْمَوْضِعَيْنِ.
‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Layla said: "Ka‘b bin ‘Ujrah met me and said: ‘Shall I give you a gift that I heard from the Prophet ﷺ?’ I said, ‘Yes, please give it to me.’ He said: ‘We asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, ‘O Messenger of Allah, how should we send blessings upon you and your household? For Allah has taught us how to greet you.’
He said: ‘Say: O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim and upon the family of Ibrahim; You are indeed Praiseworthy and Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You blessed Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim; You are indeed Praiseworthy and Glorious.’"
This was agreed upon [Narrated by both Bukhari and Muslim, except that Muslim did not mention "upon Ibrahim" in both places]
وَعَنْ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِي (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ: قَالُوا : يَا رَسُوْلَ اللهِ، كَيْفَ نُصَلِّي عَلَيْكَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «قُوْلُوْا: اللهُمَّ صَلَّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَزْوَاجِهِ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَزْوَاجِهِ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ». مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ.
Abu Humayd As-Sa‘idi (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "They asked: ‘O Messenger of Allah, how should we send blessings upon you?’ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Say: O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and his wives and his descendants, as You sent blessings upon the family of Ibrahim. And bless Muhammad and his wives and his descendants, as You blessed the family of Ibrahim. Indeed, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious.’" This was agreed upon [Narrated by both Bukhari and Muslim]
وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَكْتَالَ بِالْمِكْيَالِ الْأَوْفَى إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَيْنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ، فَلْيَقُلْ اللهُمَّ صَلَّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ الْأُمِّيِّ وَأَزْوَاجِهِ أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ وَأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ». رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ.
وَفِي السَّعَايَةِ»: إِنَّ السُّنَّةَ الْمُؤَكَّدَةَ هُوَ مُطْلَقُ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ التَّشَهُدِ، لَا خُصُوصُ بَعْضِ أَلْفَاظِهَا. وَإِلَيْهِ يُشِيرُ كَلَامُ عَامَّةِ فُقَهَائِنَا، إِلَّا أَنَّهُمُ اخْتَلَفُوا فِي أَنَّ أَيَّ لَفْظٍ مُخْتَارُ، فَفِي غُنْيَةِ الْمُسْتَمْلِي»: الْمُخْتَارُ فِي صِفَةِ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى مَا ذَكَرَهُ فِي الْكِفَايَةِ» وَالزَّاهِدِيُّ فِي الْقِنْيَةِ» وَشَرْحِ الْقُدُورِيَّ»:
أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا سُئِلَ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ: يَقُوْلُ: اللهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ. وَهِيَ الْمُوَافِقَةُ لِمَا فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيْثِ كَعْبٍ. وَنَقَلَ صَاحِبُ النَّخِيرَةِ» عَنْ كِتَابِ الْحُجَجُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ» لِعِيسَى بْنِ أَبَانٍ: أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا سُئِلَ عَنْ كَيْفِيَّةِ الصَّلَاةِ: فَأَجَابَ بِمَا مَرَّ انْتَهَى
Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever wishes to receive the fullest measure (of blessings) when sending blessings upon us, the members of the household, let him say:
'O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad, the unlettered Prophet, and upon his wives, the mothers of the believers, and his descendants and his household, as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim. Indeed, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious.’" [Narrated by Abu Dawood]
And in "As-Sa‘ayah," it is mentioned: "The confirmed Sunnah is to send blessings after Tashahhud, without specifying certain words. This is indicated by the statements of most of our jurists. However, they differed regarding which wording is preferred. In ‘Ghuniyat Al-Mustamli,’ the preferred wording of the blessings is as mentioned in ‘Al-Kifayah,’ ‘Al-Qunyah,’ and the explanation of ‘Al-Quduri’:
Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked about it, and he said: ‘Say: O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim and upon the family of Ibrahim. Indeed, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You blessed Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. Indeed, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious.’
And this is in agreement with what is found in the two authentic books (Bukhari and Muslim) from the Hadith of Ka‘b.
And the author of "An-Nakhira" reported from the book "Al-Hujaj ‘Ala Ahl Al-Madinah" by ‘Isa bin A‘ban: That Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked about the way of sending blessings, and he answered with what has been mentioned before.

‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out until he entered a garden and prostrated for a long time, to the point that I feared that Allah had taken his soul. I went to check on him, and he raised his head and said: ‘What is the matter?’ I mentioned to him my concern.
He said: ‘Jibreel came to me and said: Shall I not give you glad tidings? Allah, the Almighty, says to you: Whoever sends blessings upon you once, I send blessings upon him, and whoever greets you with peace, I greet him with peace.’" [Narrated by Ahmad]

Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came one day with joy on his face and said: “Jibril came to me and said: ‘Your Lord says: O Muhammad, does it not please you that no one from your Ummah sends blessings upon you except that I send ten blessings upon him, and no one greets you except that I send ten greetings upon him?’” [Narrated by Al-Nasa’i and Al-Darimi]
