Hasan narrates that the people said, "O Messenger of Allah! We have learned the way to send salutations upon you, now teach us the way to send blessings (durood) upon you as well." He said, "Say: O Allah! Bestow Your mercy and blessings upon the family of Muhammad (peace be upon him) as You bestowed upon Ibrahim. Surely, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious."
