Reciting abundant salutations on Friday

It is narrated from Hazrat Aws bin Aws (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said regarding Friday:

فاكثروا على من الصلاة فيه فإن صلاتكم معروضة على

“On this day, send abundant salutations upon me, for your salutations will be presented to me.”
The companions asked how the salutations would be presented when you (peace be upon him) would have turned into decayed bones. The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied:

إن الله عزو جل حرم على الأرض أن تأكل أجساد الأنبياء

“Indeed, Allah has forbidden the earth from consuming the bodies of the Prophets (peace be upon them).”
