The Intention of Angels in Salutation
Is it true that at the end of the prayer, the salutation is for the angels and we limit ourselves to saying 'and blessings' to the right side; so that the blessings are in good deeds, and to the left side we do not say 'and blessings'; because blessings do not apply to bad deeds?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: Peace is to be given to the right and left for the angels and those present in the congregational prayer, and in the individual prayer for the angels. It is disliked to say "and His blessings" to the right and left as a matter of etiquette, and God knows best.
