🌷The Concept of "Salawat": (Sending Blessing on the Noble Prophet and his pure progeny):
📍Q: "Do we bless the Noble Prophet and his family to have our station promoted, or theirs?"
-student
✔️A: "It is for having our station promoted. The Noble Prophet is the best and noblest of creatures, which means that he has some existential perfection unsurpassed by any other creature.
Accordingly, his most exalted station may not be promoted. Our (call for) blessing (on him and his progeny) is a form of veneration from our part which does not raise his rank. It is like picking an apple from an apple garden and presenting it as a token of love to the owner of the garden. Any good, weather material or spiritual comes through the Noble Prophet; he is the owner of all goods and blessings".
