[Machine] If I were to pray a prayer in which I do not send blessings upon Muhammad and his family, I would consider my prayer incomplete. Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Khushaysh al-Tamimi, from Kufa, informed us that Abu Bakr Abdullah ibn Yahya ibn Muawiya al-Talhi narrated to us from Abu Husayn Muhammad ibn al-Husayn ibn Habib, who narrated from Ibrahim ibn Muhammad ibn Maymun, who narrated from Abu Malik al-Janbi, from Sharik, who said: "I heard Ibrahim ibn Muhammad narrate from Ubaydullah ibn Musa, who narrated from Isra'il altogether, who narrated from Jabir, who narrated from Abu Ja'far, who narrated from Abu Mas'ud al-Badri, who said: "If I were to pray a prayer in which I do not send blessings upon Muhammad and his family, I consider it incomplete." Jabir al-Ju'fi narrated this chain of transmission, and he is weak. In what has preceded here, and in the chapter of the description of prayer, it is sufficient. And with Allah is success. And it has been narrated to us from al-Sha'bi that he said: "Whoever does not send blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ in the Tashahhud, let him repeat his prayer," or he said: "His prayer is not valid." And it has been narrated to us the meaning of it from al-Hajjaj ibn Artat, from Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Ali ibn al-Husayn.
