What is the ruling on saying: "The beloved awaits your greetings," and claiming a specific number of good deeds upon sending prayers upon the Prophet (peace be upon him) and disseminating that?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Encouraging people to do good, remember Allah, and send blessings upon the Prophet is good. However, messages must be শরিয়ত-compliant (in accordance with Islamic law), focusing on the virtues of deeds as established by authentic texts, without exaggeration or adding incorrect phrases, or speaking about Allah without knowledge. As for the phrase "The beloved is awaiting your salutations," if it is intended to encourage sending prayers and peace upon the Prophet and to indicate his joy in them because they are an act of obedience, then this is true. Otherwise, it is better to avoid ambiguous phrases and limit oneself to what is stated in the texts.
