أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَی قَالَ قَالَ لِي کَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ أَلَا أُهْدِي لَکَ هَدِيَّةً قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ عَرَفْنَا کَيْفَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْکَ فَکَيْفَ نُصَلِّي عَلَيْکَ قَالَ قُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَی مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ کَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَی آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّکَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِکْ عَلَی مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ کَمَا بَارَکْتَ عَلَی آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّکَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1294
It was narrated that Ibn Abi Laila said: “Ka’b bin ‘Ujrah said to me: ‘Shall I not give you a gift?’ We said: “Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم we know how to send Salams upon you, but how shall we send alah upon you?” He said: “Say:(Allah, send Salah upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You sent alah upon the family of Ibrahim, You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory. Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You sent prayers upon the family of Ibrahim, You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory).” (Sahih)
