Is the phrase "O Allah, bless and grant peace upon Muhammad," which is recited in the morning and evening remembrances, legislated by Allah? And does it have the same virtue as the formula for sending blessings upon the Prophet mentioned in the Hadith: "O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You blessed Abraham and the family of Abraham"?

The saying "Allahumma salli wa sallim ala Muhammad (O Allah, bestow Your prayers and peace upon Muhammad)" is a correct formula for attaining the virtue of sending prayers and peace upon the Prophet. However, the most complete form for this is the Salawat al-Ibrahimiyyah (Ibrahimic Prayers).
