Riyad as-Salihin: Book 14, Hadith 11

Abu Humaid As-Sa’idi (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Companions of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “O Messenger of Allah! How should we supplicate for you?” He (ﷺ) replied, “Say: ‘Allahumma salli ‘ala Muhammadin wa ‘ala azwajihi wa dhurriyyatihi, kama sallaita ‘ala Ibrahima; wa barik ‘ala Muhammadin wa ‘ala azwajihi wa dhurriyyatihi, kama barakta ‘ala Ibrahima, innaka Hamidum-Majid (O Allah sent Your Salat (O Allah, exalt the mention of Muhammad and his wives and offspring as You exalted the mention of the family of Ibrahim, and bless Muhammad and the wives and the offspring of Muhammad as you blessed the family of Ibrahim. You are the Praised, the Glorious’.”.

وعن أبي حميد الساعدي رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ قالوا‏:‏ يا رسول الله كيف نصلي عليك‏؟‏ قال‏:‏ ‏
“‏قولوا‏:‏ اللهم صلِ على محمد، وعلى أزواجه وذريته، كما صليت على آل إبراهيم، وبارك على محمد، وعلى أزواجه وذريته، كما باركت على إبراهيم، إنك حميد مجيد‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
