    Salaam Meek

    Then you should have asked for a "transliteration", not a translation. That's why I did not repond to your demand because I was confused as to why you would need a translation and it's all over this forum and the internet )

    Here is what you want (hope I got it right)

    innal-laha wa mala'ikatahu yussalluuna 3alan-nabiy. ya ayyuhal-latheena 'amanuu, ssalluu 3alaihi wa sallimuu tasleema.

      (&#1638
      In verse 33-56, God asked the believers to do what God and his Angles do, that is "Saloo Alia wa Salmoo Taslima"
      The arabic words "Salo Alih waa salemo" can be translated to "Greatings and Prayers upon Him"; but the common use is "Peace Be Upon Him" (PBUH)
      Anyway, welcome
      May God Bless

      Peace,
      Respectfully.

      Do you know what you're saying?
      How do you greet a person whom you can't see now?
      Do you see any prophets there?
      We greet only those who can greet us back and whom we see.

      I can't greet my grandfather, because he cannot respond.
      I can greet my grandmother, because there is a slight chance that she will respond. And she does.

      See my point?
      Glory be to God.
      Peace.

        Salaam, Sis Samia...

        Thank you for the correction "transliteration", in stead of "translation". I will be checking on that.

        Also, I'd like to add for others whom are interested in this topic... and this is, again, ONLY my interpretation of this verse (3356)

        Where it says (in the version of the Qur'an that I have), "... call for blessings on him..." - The Prophet is in need of no more blessings at this time, because he has reached the uttermost of any blessings. He is with ALLAH! He is TRULY blessed to the greatest degree of blessings! How then can we ask or call for any more blessings than that? He has no need for this... or for the call of peace to be upon him, because he has also attained the greatest gift of peace... again, he is with ALLAH! Can one ask for or call for, or request any more peace upon another than this? The PEACE, at its greatest, has already been established for the Prophet. This is why I believe that this verse was referring to believers that were in the PRESENCE of the Prophet, because at that time, he was still here (a human in the world) who could always benefit from the "call for blessings" or a "(becoming) salutation".

        ONLY my interpretation... but my mind is very open for correction or more detailed interpretation or understanding.

        Peace and blessings!

          If we ask for blessings for the messenger, we are asking for blessings for the message... He passed the message, we want that the message goes on being passed with increased blessings, and the messengers today is us. So yes, let us ask for plente of blessings for the messenger so that we don't fail to pass it on.

          Salaam

              Salam,

              On the other hand, where in the Quran that forbids saying peace be upon him?

              Hati

              Many things aren't in the quran; that's what led to so many sunnah innovations in the first place.

                Do you know what you're saying?

                Why are you so upset; o

                all I said was the Verse; I did not even paste the English translation from the source that I use (because I did not think it was right) the verse says ?oh who you Believe, Salwo Alih wa salemo taslima?. In the verse God ask (not me) the BELIEVERS to say what I wrote in Arabic, but the English translation is what I?m not sure about.

                ONLY my interpretation... but my mind is very open for correction or more detailed interpretation or understanding.

                      Peace to all,

                      Hati, i think the point is that its not required, not that its forbidden,, you can say "fo shizzle " after there name if you want, since nothing in the Quran forbids saying that does it?

                        Peace,
                        Respectfully.

                        I think a better questions needs to be asked"Why do sunnis get upset and insulted, when you mention prophet Muhammad and you don't add pbuh?"

                        Of course, at that moment one is risking a punch in the face.... God forbid.
                        Glor ybe to our God.
                        God bless you all.
                        Peace.

                          Blessings to all,

                          The Quran shows a lot of history, and many verses are meant for the believers at that time. The verses connected with the word prophet apply only during the prophet's life on earth. Right? Here's a verse that tells the believers not to raise their voice above the voice of the prophet.

                          Yusuf Ali
                          O ye who believe! Raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet, nor speak aloud to him in talk, as ye may speak aloud to one another, lest your deeds become vain and ye perceive not.

                          Since the prophet no longer has a voice, wouldn't this have ended when the Prophet died? The prophet is dead so how can we do this now?

                          And here is a verse proving the prophet died (for the sake of argument).

                          Yusuf Ali
                          Truly thou wilt die, and truly they will die.

                          So, one can also apply this to

                          Yusuf Ali
                          God and His angels send blessings on the Prophet O ye that believe! Send ye blessings on him, and salute him with all respect.

                          I don't know of any place in the Quran that refers to the prophet as "Nabi" after his death.

                          peace,
                          dotty

                            I have that interpretation as well... and if it is incorrect, may ALLAH have mercy on us and I trust that He will reveal the truth to those of us that seek ONLY HIM for our guidance and understanding through our reading and studying of the Qur'an.

                            Peace and blessings... ALLAH knows best! peace

                              Surely we can be wrong in our perception of the truth. I go with what makes sense to me and constantly ask God to protect me from false religious teachings. I pray God protects us all.

                                  Salaam, Sis Dotty...

                                  Thank you very much for the compliment. I am striving to be a good Muslimah. I pray that ALLAH will guide me on the Straight Path... and the HE will protect me from anything that will cause me to stray in any way from the TRUTH.

                                  If I am to lead others to ISLAM, I must be a good and proper example for them to witness.

                                  ISLAM is beautiful... and ALLAH is so much more than even that! No one can go wrong in choosing ISLAM and becoming a devout Muslim.

                                  ALLAH knows best, MOST GRACIOUS, MOST MERCIFUL!

                                  I wish all could know... and I will do my best to show, Insha'allah!

                                  Peace and blessings, Sis... peace

                                  The Meek One, A Lady angel

                                    I think that we shouldn't fake anything in religion and in our relationship with God or other people. One thing is to show due respect to everybody in the proper circumstances, another is to pretend that we feel or believe what we do not. If by asking for blessings for the messenger we are forcing us, what is the good of it? If you say from your heart and conviction, then whay not?

                                    Again, islam is not a one size fit all but a truthful Quran fits avery one of us. We are all different, each minute in our life may be different, so tht what we did or thought one year or thirty years ago may be useless to us now, or not, and things that we didn't even suspect before may become essential and generous to us.

                                    May be some or many tradition bound muslims are narrow minded and one size fits all, but generally we people should be as accepting of sincerity in others as possible. We must trust that if the intention is good, eventually whatever is done will help the doer to better understanding of truth and cleseness to God.

                                    Salaam

                                          Your post was a very good and humble one... thank you very much. We all need to be reminded of these things from time to time. )

                                          I offer you the use of my name for a day! handshake Well, of course NOT the "Lady" part! laugh
