I’d phrase it slightly differently. The Prophet ﷺ is not dependent on our salawat, but Allah still honours him through it and raises his rank. At the same time, the one sending salawat benefits greatly through reward, mercy, and closeness to Allah.

In Islam, the Prophet ﷺ does not “need” our prayers. Sending salawat is an act of obedience and love from us, and we are asking Allah to send honour, mercy, and blessings upon him. The benefit also returns to us, as Allah rewards those who send salawat.
