Asking for Allah’s blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ

اَللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ، وَّ عَلٰٓی اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، کَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلٰٓی إِبْرَاهِيْمَ وَ عَلٰٓی اٰلِ إِبْرَاهِيْمَ، إِنَّکَ حَمِيْدٌ مَجِيْدٌ، اَللّٰهُمَّ بَارِکْ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ، وَّ عَلٰٓی اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، کَمَا بَارَکْتَ عَلٰٓی إِبْرَاهِيْمَ، وَ عَلٰٓی اٰلِ إِبْرَاهِيْمَ، إِنَّکَ حَمِيْدٌ مَجِيْدٌ

O Allāh, send prayers upon Muḥammad and the followers of Muḥammad, just as You sent prayers upon Ibrāhīm and upon the followers of Ibrāhīm. Verily, You are full of praise and majesty. O Allāh, send blessings upon Muḥammad and upon the family of Muḥammad, just as You sent blessings upon Ibrāhīm and upon the family of Ibrāhīm. Verily, You are full of praise and majesty.
[Sahih Bukhari – 3370]
