Are righteous deeds conveyed to the Messenger, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, like any deceased Muslim?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, is not like other deceased Muslims. Every good deed performed by a Muslim earns a reward similar to his, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward like the rewards of those who follow him, without diminishing their rewards in the slightest," and "Whoever introduces a good practice in Islam will have the reward of it and the reward of those who act upon it after him, without diminishing their rewards in the slightest." Therefore, there is no need for the doer of a good deed to dedicate its reward to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, because he already receives it in any case, and because the Prophet did not guide his Ummah to this, and it was not known from the righteous predecessors.
