It is permissible to invoke blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) without mentioning his family, based on the Almighty's saying: "Indeed, Allah confers blessing upon the Prophet, and His angels [ask Him to do so]. O you who have believed, ask [Allah to confer] blessing upon him and greet him with [explicit] salutation" [Al-Ahzab:56]. However, it is better to invoke blessings upon him along with his family, as in the Ibrahimiyyah prayer.
