Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 6, Hadith 205

It was narrated from Abu Darda’ that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Send a great deal of blessing upon me on Fridays, for it is witnessed by the angels. No one sends blessing upon me but his blessing will be presented to me, until he finishes them.” A man said: “Even after death?” He said: “Even after death, for Allah has forbidden the earth to consume the bodies of the Prophets, so the Prophet of Allah is alive and receives provision.’”

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ سَوَّادٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلاَلٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَيْمَنَ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ نُسَىٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏”‏ أَكْثِرُوا الصَّلاَةَ عَلَىَّ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَإِنَّهُ مَشْهُودٌ تَشْهَدُهُ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ وَإِنَّ أَحَدًا لَنْ يُصَلِّيَ عَلَىَّ إِلاَّ عُرِضَتْ عَلَىَّ صَلاَتُهُ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ مِنْهَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَبَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ قَالَ ‏”‏ وَبَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ أَجْسَادَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ فَنَبِيُّ اللَّهِ حَىٌّ يُرْزَقُ ‏.‏

Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 6, Hadith 205
Da’if (Darussalam)

The above hadith is from the Sunan Ibn Majah collection of hadiths. Compiled by the scholar Ibn Majah, who passed away in 273 AH (886 CE), the Sunan Ibn Majah is recognized as one of the six canonical hadith collections, or Kutub al-Sittah, within Sunni Islam. This substantial work contains approximately 4,000 narrations that address a wide array of subjects crucial to Islamic life. These topics encompass matters of faith, detailed ritual practices, personal ethics, and broader social issues. While it is a respected and important resource, its standing is often considered slightly below that of the other five major collections. This perception exists because scholars have identified a number of weaker narrations within its contents. Despite this qualification, it continues to be an invaluable reference for Islamic scholars and students engaged in deep study.
