Calling Upon Someone: The Permissibility of calling “Ya Muhammad, Ya Rasulallah”

[hareem01]

@armughal

even during his lifetime, no muslim called the Prophet (saw) by saying “ya muhammad”, they used to call him as rasul-Allah…
only his enemies wud call him by saying “ya muhammad” because they did not want to give him respect…
those among the disbelievers who did not believe him to be a prophet, but nonetheless respected him used to call him by his kunyat “abu qasim”…

Bhai sahab, when you respect someone you don’t call him by name, but by his post, designation or qualities " Principle sahab, President sahab…etc."

Open Quran and kindly show me “ONE SINGLE” place where Allah has called the prophet as " Ya Muhammad"

Instead Allah has called by so many names related to the prophet (saw) qualities/ designation…etc. BUT never by his original name.

And then people are ignorantly writing and shouting “ya Muhammad” in Masjids. May Allah (s.w.t) guide us all.

In Saudi Arabia, Ya Muhammad is used to address a stranger in order to begin a conversation. It is considered one of the polite and respectful ways to address a stranger, as Muhammad is considered as the most respectful name anyone can be called, hence its popularity among Muslims worldwide.
