It was narrated that Abu Mas’ud Al-Ansari said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم came to us in the Majlis of Saad bin ‘Ubadah and Bashir bin Saad said to him: ‘Allah has commanded us to send Salah upon you, Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم; so how should we send Salah upon you?’ The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم remained silent until we wished that he had not asked him. Then he said: ‘Say:(Allah, send alah upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, as You sent Salah upon the family of Ibrahim, and send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad as You sent blessings upon the family of Ibrahim among the nations. You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory).” And the Salam is as you know.” (Sahih).
