The answer

Reciting the final Tashahhud is a pillar (rukn) of prayer, and it is sufficient to recite it in any form authentically narrated from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Imam Ahmad explicitly stated that the Tashahhud of Ibn Mas'ud is the best, while other forms are permissible. The minimum sufficient form of the Tashahhud is: "All salutations are due to Allah, peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy of Allah, peace be upon us and upon the righteous servants of Allah, I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and His messenger." It is important to pay close attention to the Tashahhud and not omit any letter, as doing so might invalidate the prayer according to some scholars.
