  • Why Do We Say Darood Sharif When Prophet Muhammad (SwS) Is Already In Jannah

    Holy Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ was last and final prophet. He is an example for humans as we say. He came to the world and He was given a purpose that He fulfilled. As He is beloved Prophet of Allah so that’s confirmed that He will go to Heaven. Then why do we pray for him in namaz? Why do Allah commands us to send “Salam upon Him (PBUH)?

      Why has Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ only asked for rehmat for his khandan? Why not the whole humanity as He is called “Rehmat ul Alameen”…?

      This was in accordance with Surah Ahzab (Quran 33:56). The Surah was revealed in the context that Hypocirites and People of the book were planning different schemes to malign the household of the Prophet to ultimately put a smudge on the Prophet’s (sws) character and thus damper the Islamic movement that was spreading in medina and outwards. There were many directives given in that Surah to counter that situation like the wives of the Prophet were given special guidelines to counter the scheming of hyporites and other directives as well. It was in this context, the Muslims were asked that in the face of all the scheming going on to scandalize the character of the Prophet, Muslims should send blessings on the Prophet as a response. There were no words prescribed in this regard, one can send belssing in any noble way. But when Prophet (sws) was asked how to send blessings on him, he recommended this darood and Muslims carried forward this tradition. Therefore, in that context, sending of blessings on the Prophet and his household was the appropriate thing to do and we Muslims still do that out of our love and respect for the Prophet (Sws).
