I have a confusion that they have passed away they don\u2019t have any thing  to do with this world any more. Neither they have any danger so why  should we pray for their safety and security i.e, Hazrat Esa (Peace be  upon him) etc. <\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>In the supplications which are called by the  people in our lands as durood is nothing but a prayer for the Prophets.  We invoke Allah&#8217;s blessings upon them. This is due to the fact that the  Prophets were chosen by God for the guidance of mankind. We owe them  gratitude and the best form of gratitude is to invoke Allah&#8217;s blessings  upon them. We also pray for all of our dear ones. The Prophet&#8217;s status  is above all the ones whom we hold dear. Allah Almighty has commanded us  to invoke His blessings upon the Prophet. I am not sure what is wrong  with it. We know that they have passed away. We also know that that they  enjoy great status in the presence of the Lord. Yet we pray for them  only because it is the command of Allah and is dictated by our relation  to them. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-01-12<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6259\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We pray for safety and security of Prophets in durood and <em>salam<\/em>.
