Sending Prayers on the Prophet in Salah - Its Place and Manner

He (sallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam) used to send prayers on himself in the first tashahhud as well as the other. He also established it for his ummah, ordering them to send prayers on him after sending peace on him, and he taught them several ways of doing so:

1. O Allah! send prayers on Muhammad, and on his household, and on his wives and progeny, as you sent prayers on the family of Ibraheem; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory. And send blessings on Muhammad, and his household, and his wives and progeny, as you sent blessings on the family of Ibraheem; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory.

This supplication he would use himself.  

2. O Allah! send prayers on Muhammad, and on the family of Muhammad, as you sent prayers on [Ibraheem, and on] the family of Ibraheem; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory. O Allah! send blessings on Muhammad, and on the family of Muhammad, as you sent blessings on [Ibraheem, and on] the family of Ibraheem; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory.

3. O Allah! send prayers on Muhammad, and on the family of Muhammad, as you sent prayers on Ibraheem, [and the family of Ibraheem]; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory. And send blessings on Muhammad, and on the family of Muhammad, as you sent blessings on [Ibraheem, and] the family of Ibraheem; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory.

4. O Allah! send prayers on Muhammad [the Unlettered Prophet], and on the family of Muhammad, as you sent prayers on [the family of] Ibraheem; and send blessings on Muhammad [the Unlettered Prophet] and the family of Muhammad, as you sent blessings on [the family of] Ibraheem among the nations; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory.

5. O Allah! send prayers on Muhammad, Your slave and messenger, as You sent prayers on [the family of] Ibraheem. And send blessings on Muhammad [Your slave and messenger], [and the family of Muhammad,] as you sent blessings on Ibraheem [and on the family of Ibraheem].

6. O Allah! send prayers on Muhammad and [on] his wives and progeny, as You sent prayers on [the family of Ibraheem]. And send blessings on Muhammad, and [on] his wives and progeny, as You sent blessings on [the family of] Ibraheem; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory.

7. O Allah! send prayers on Muhammad, and on the family of Muhammad, and send blessings on Muhammad, and on the family of Muhammad, as you sent prayers and sent blessings on Ibraheem and the family of Ibraheem; You are indeed Worthy of Praise, Full of Glory.
