Sending
prayers and salutations upon the Messenger before the Adhaan
*Please appropriately reference

Question: What is the ruling regarding sending
prayers and salutations upon the Messenger before the adhaan?
Response:
Sending prayers and salutations upon the Messenger before
the adhaan
and, similarly, raising one's voice with it after the adhaan
is an innovation in the religion. It is confirmed on the authority
of the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) that he said:
((Whoever
introduces anything into this matter of ours (i.e. Islaam)
that which is not from it, will have it rejected)),
[Saheeh
al-Bukhaaree/2697 and Saheeh
Muslim/1718].
And
in another narration: ((Anyone who
does an act which is not in agreement with us, then he will
have it rejected)), [Muslim].
And
with Allaah lies all success and may Allaah send prayers and
salutations upon our Prophet (sal-Allaahu
`alayhe wa sallam) and his family and his companions.
