أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، قَالَ قَالَ لِي كَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ أَلاَ أُهْدِي لَكَ هَدِيَّةً قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ عَرَفْنَا كَيْفَ السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ فَكَيْفَ نُصَلِّي عَلَيْكَ قَالَ " قُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ " .
Suwayd ibn Nasr narrated to us: ‘Abd Allah narrated to us, from Shu‘bah, from al-Hakam, from Ibn Abi Layla, who said: Ka‘b ibn ‘Ujrah said to me, “Shall I give you a gift?” We said, “O Messenger of Allah, we know how to offer you greetings of peace; how should we invoke blessings upon you?” He said: “Say: ‘O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You sent blessings upon the family of Ibrahim. You are indeed Praiseworthy, Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as You blessed the family of Ibrahim. You are indeed Praiseworthy, Glorious.’”
Translation notes
The narration shifts directly from Ka‘b ibn ‘Ujrah addressing Ibn Abi Layla to the group’s question to the Prophet; the translation preserves this sequence as transmitted.
