The first Hadith, "Whoever sends blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once, Allah and His angels send seventy blessings upon him," is disputed. Al-Haythami and Al-Sakhawi deemed its chain of narration good (hasan), while Al-Albani and Shu'ayb Al-Arna'ut declared it weak (da'if).
The second Hadith, "Whoever sends blessings upon me once, Allah will record for him a qirat, and a qirat is like Mount Uhud," has a weak chain of narration (da'if isnad). Al-Sakhawi and Al-Albani declared it weak.
The third Hadith has not been found in the accredited books of Hadith.
