Question

The above Ulema believe that the Prophet is Omnipresent, so why do people shout 'Shirk' when Muslims talk about Haadir wa Naadir? There are many other Ulema but I thought I'd just name a few to start with. Jazak Allah.

Answer

Haazir (Omnipresent) and Naazir (Omniseeing) are the sole attributes of Allah.

No human being including our Nabiy (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) can be Haazir and Naazir. Our beloved Rasul (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) is resting in Madinah Munawwarah. He informed us that when anyone sends Salaams to him, the angels convey the Salaam to him there.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
