Sending Prayers Upon the Prophet ﷺ

Question :

I have read the following Hadiths in some religious books: "Whoever, during the period of a day, sends Salah upon me one-thousand times, he will not die until he sees his seat (place) in Paradise." And: "Whoever sends Salah upon me one-thousand times, Allâh forbids the Fire from touching his body." Are these Hadiths authentic? Please give proof?

Answer:

These Hadiths are weak, or perhaps even fabricated. Enough for one are those authentic Hadiths that Ibn Kathir relates in his Tafsir of Surat Al-Ahzab, where Allâh Almighty says:
"Allah sends His Salah on the Prophet ﷺ and also His angels too. O you who believe! Send your Salah, and greet him with the greeting of peace."

Refer to this verse and also perhaps to books like Jala' ul-Afham, by Ibn Al-Qayyim.
