عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى قَالَ: لَقِيَنِي كَعْبُ بْنُ عُجْرَةَ، فَقَالَ: أَلاَ أُهْدِي لَكَ هَدِيَّةً؟ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا، فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَدْ عَلِمْنَا كَيْفَ نُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكَ، فَكَيْفَ نُصَلِّي عَلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ: «فَقُولُوا: اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ، اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ».
Kutoka kwa Abdul Rahman Bin Abii Laila amesema: Alikutana nami Ka'bu bin Ujza, akasema: Hivi wataka nikupe zaidi? Hakika Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake alitoka kwetu sisi, tukasema: Ewe Mjumbe wa Mwenyezi Mungu, tumekwishafahamu ni vipi tutakusalimu, sasa ni vipi tutakutakia Rehema? Akasema: "Basi semeni: Ewe Mwenyezi Mungu mpe rehema Muhammadi na juu ya watu wa Muhammadi, kama ulivyompa rehema Ibrahim na juu ya watu wa Ibrahim, hakika wewe ni mhimidiwa mwenye kutukuzwa, ewe Mwenyezi Mungu shusha baraka juu ya Muhammad na juu ya watu wa Muhammad, kama ulivyoteremsha baraka kwa watu wa Ibrahim, hakika wewe ni mhimidiwa mwenye kutukuzwa".
‘Abdur-Rahmān ibn Abi Layla reported: I came across Ka‘b ibn ‘Ujrah who said: Shall I offer you a present? The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us, and we said: O Messenger of Allah, we have learned how to greet you, but how should we invoke the blessings of Allah upon you? He said: "Say: Allāhumma salli ‘ala Muhammad wa ‘ala āli Muhammad kama sallayta ‘ala āli Ibrāhīm innaka hamīdun majīd. Allāhumma bārik' ala Muhammad wa' ala āli Muhammad kama bārakta' ala āli Ibrāhīm innaka hamīdun majīd (O Allah, bestow Your grace upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad just as You bestowed Your grace upon the family of Abraham. Verily, You are Praiseworthy, All-Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad just as You blessed the family of Abraham. Verily, You are Praiseworthy, All-Glorious)."
Wema waliotangulia walikuwa wakizawadiana kuhusu mambo ya elimu.
Uwajibu wa kumtakia rehema Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake katika tashahudi ya mwisho katika swala.
Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake aliwafundisha Masahaba wake kumtakia amani na rehema juu yake.
Namna hii ya kuomba ndio namna sahihi zaidi katika kumtakia rehema Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake.
