I said: “O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, how do we send blessings upon you?” He said: ʿSay: O Allah, send Your salah (grace, honour and mercy) upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent Your salah upon the family of Ibrahim, You are indeed Praiseworthy, Most Glorious. And send Your blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You sent Your blessings upon the family of Ibrahim, You are indeed Praiseworthy, Most Glorious.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 1396)

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us while we were sitting in the company of Saʿīd b. ʿUbādah. Bashīr b. Saʿd said, "Allah has commanded us to send ṣalāh (Allah's praise, mention, forgiveness, blessings) upon you O Messenger of Allah! But how should send ṣalāh upon you?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ kept quiet ˹for such a long time˺ that we wished we had not asked him.

Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Say: allāhuma ṣalli ʿalá muḥammadin wa-ʿalá āli muḥammad, kamā ṣallayta ʿalá āli ibrāhīm, wa-bārik ʿalá muḥammadin wa-ʿalá āli muḥammadin kamā bārakta ʿalá āl ibrāhīma fī al-ʿālamīn, innaka ḥamīdun majīd (O Allah, send ṣalāh upon Muhammad and upon the family/followers of Muhammad just as You sent ṣalāh upon the family/followers of Ibrahim. And bestow blessings upon Muhammad and the family/followers of Muhammad just as You bestowed blessings upon the family/followers of Ibrahim in the world; for You are indeed the One Worthy of All Praise and Majesty),' and ˹sending of the˺ salutation ˹is˺ as you ˹already˺ know."

O Allah grant favours of Muhammad and Muhammad’s family as Thou didst grant favour to Abraham’s family. Thou art indeed praiseworthy and glorious. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated by al-Zubair b. ‘Adi as narrated by Mis’ar , except that his version goes: As Thou didst bless Abraham’s family. Thou art indeed praiseworthy and glorious. And grant favours to Muhammad. He then narrated the tradition in full.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us in a meeting of Sa’d b. ‘Ubadah. Bashir b. Sa’d said to him: Allah has commanded us to invoke blessings on you, Messenger of Allah. How should we invoke blessings on you? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ kept silence so much so that we wished he would not ask him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Say. He then narrated the tradition like that of Ka’b b. ‘Ujrah. This version adds in the end: In the universe, Thou art praiseworthy and glorious.

if anyone would like to have the fullest measure granted to him when he invokes blessings on us, the members of the prophet’s family, he should say: O Allah, bless Muhammad, the unlettered Prophet, his wives who are the mother of the faithful, his off springs, and the people of his house as Thou didst bless the family of Abraham.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nuaym ibn Abdullah al- Mujmirthat Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Zayd told him that Abu Masud al Ansari said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us at the gathering of Sad ibn Ubada. Bashir ibn Sad said to him, 'Allah has ordered us to ask for blessings on you, Messenger of Allah. How should we do it?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained silent until we wished we had not asked him. Then he told us to say, 'O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You blessed Ibrahim, and give baraka to Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You gave baraka to the family of Ibrahim. In all the worlds You are worthy of Praise and Glorious,' and then give the taslim as you have learnt."

[Machine] A man approached and sat in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while we were with him. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, we already know how to greet you with peace, so how should we send blessings upon you when we have already prayed and Allah has blessed you?" The Messenger of Allah remained silent until we thought that the man had not asked him properly. Then he said, "If you have prayed upon me, then say, 'O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad, the unlettered Prophet, and upon the family of Muhammad, as You have sent blessings upon Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. And bless Muhammad, the unlettered Prophet, as You have blessed Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. Verily, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious."

قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ عَلِمْنَا السَّلَامَ عَلَيْكَ فَكَيْفَ الصَّلَاةُ عَلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ «قُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَآلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَآلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ»

[Machine] Narrated Abu Mas'ud:

A man came and sat in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we know how to send greetings upon you, but how should we pray for you when we are already praying in our own prayers? Allah sends His blessings upon you, so how should we send blessings upon you?" The Prophet ﷺ remained silent until we wished that the man had not asked him. Then he said, "When you pray, say: 'O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad, the Prophet who cannot read or write, and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent blessings upon Ibrahim, and upon the family of Ibrahim. And bless Muhammad, the Prophet who cannot read or write, and the family of Muhammad, as You blessed Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim. Verily, You are full of praise and majesty.'"

I said: “O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, how do we send blessings upon you?” He said: ʿSay: O Allah, send Your salah (grace, honour and mercy) upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent Your salah upon the family of Ibrahim, You are indeed Praiseworthy, Most Glorious. And send Your blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You sent Your blessings upon the family of Ibrahim, You are indeed Praiseworthy, Most Glorious.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 1396)
