Question

Can we take name of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) while eating or drinking or after drinking milk, or must our mouth be totally clean?

Answer

It is permissible. Like it is permissible to take the name of Allah Ta`ala, so too is the taking of the name of Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam).

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
