What is the legal ruling regarding the widespread circulation of a "Prophet's Personal ID Card," in the form of a passport, that includes personal information about him, his family, household, sons, daughters, and wives, as well as their birthplaces and other details?
It is not permissible to circulate pamphlets that claim to inform people about religious rulings but contain Sharia violations. Among these is the pamphlet "The Prophet's Civil Status ID Card," which contradicts the reverence and glorification due to him. It includes weak and fabricated hadiths, and pictures of places claimed to belong to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and his household without proof, along with incorrect identification of his birthplace and date of birth. Additionally, it contains fallacies in terminology and names, and invalid Sufi beliefs. Scholars and fatwa committees have issued warnings against this card and prohibited its sale and purchase.
