Hadith text

Narrated Ka`b bin Ujra:It was said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We know how to greet you, but how to invoke Allah for you?" The Prophet said, "Say: Allahumma salli ala Muhammadin wa'ala `Ali Muhammaddin, kama sallaita 'ala all Ibrahim, innaka Hamidun Majid

Ka'b bin Ujra bataate hain: Kaha gaya, 'Aye Allah ke Rasool! Humein aapko salaam karna aata hai, magar aapke liye Allah se kaise dua karein?' Nabi (SAW) ne farmaya, 'Kaho: Allahumma salli ala Muhammadin wa ala aali Muhammadin, kama sallaita ala aali Ibrahim, innaka Hamidum-Majid (Aye Allah! Muhammad aur unki aal par apni rehmat naazil kar, jaise Tu ne Ibrahim ki aal par ki, beshak Tu bahut taareef ke laayak, bahut azmat waala hai).'
