وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَكْثِرُوا الصَّلَاةَ عَلَيَّ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَإِنَّهُ مَشْهُودٌ تَشْهَدُهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَإِنَّ أحدا لن يُصَلِّي عَلَيَّ إِلَّا عُرِضَتْ عَلَيَّ صَلَاتُهُ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ مِنْهَا» قَالَ: قُلْتُ: وَبَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ؟ قَالَ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ أَجْسَادَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ فَنَبِيُّ اللَّهِ حَيٌّ يُرْزَقُ» . رَوَاهُ ابْنُ مَاجَه

Abu al-Darda reported that the Messenger of God said: Send abundant blessings upon me on Friday, for it is witnessed and attended by the angels. Whenever anyone invokes blessings upon me, they are presented to me until he finishes. I asked: And after death? He replied: God has forbidden the earth to consume the bodies of the Prophets. The Prophet of God is alive and provided for. Ibn Majah transmitted it.
