The Ibraaheemic prayer recited by the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam

Question

Assalam-o-Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah My question is this that in Salah, we recite Darood Ibrahime , wether Rasoolah S.A.W also recite da same darood or it was differ.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

The Prophet  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) used to say the same exaltations in the second part of Tashahhud as that we are saying today in our prayers. Imaam Ahmad  may  Allaah  have  mercy  upon  him said that the Prophet  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) used to say: "Allaahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala aali Muhammad ……"

Furthermore, 'Aa'ishah  may  Allaah  be  pleased  with  her when describing the prayer of the Prophet  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) in the second part of Tashahhud, she said: "He would exalt the mention of the Messenger of Allaah [himself] and then say Salaam (i.e. conclude the prayer) loudly (in a way which could be heard).'' [Ibn Maajah].

Allaah Knows best.
