The answer

It is not known from the that the prayer with the wording "O Allah, bless our Master Muhammad, the sweet-scented" is authentically narrated, though the meaning is correct. Some scholars have considered it an innovation (bid'ah), as stated in the book "Al-Sunan wal-Mubtada'at" (The Sunnah and Innovations) by Sheikh Muhammad Abd al-Salam Khidr al-Shuqairi.
