Salaam alaikum-

I printed out the article about the correct way to do salat from this site----it's a great article MashaAllah. But there is still one thing I'm not clear on...

For Tashahud, that part that asks for prayers and blessings for the Prophet (saws) do you only do that for the Tashahud after the last rakah of prayer or for both times that you say Tashahud?

(And yes, I know you only say it once for Fajr.) :)
alaikum salaam
Salma

As Saalamu Alaikoum,

Praise be to Allah.

We send the blessings on the prophet(saw) during the last tashahud of salat... meaning the last rakaat of salat in which you recite the tashahud:

Says Ibn al-Qayyim, "It is not reported from the Prophet that he would say prayers upon himself or his family during
the first tashahud. Nor would he seek refuge from the torment of the grave or the Hell-fire, or from the test of life, death and of the false Messiah. Those who say such supplications are deducing their arguments from the general
application (of the supplications and the word tashahud), but the correct position is that their proper place is in
the last tashahud.

It is preferred to make the first tashahud quickly:

Reported Ibn Mas'ud, "When the Prophet sat after the first two rak'ah, it seemed as if he was (sitting) on hot stones." [This is related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, an-Nasa'i, at-Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah. At-Tirmidhi grades it as hassan]

And says, 'Ubaidah (ibn 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud) did not hear (hadith) from his father. He also says, "The scholars act
according to this hadith. They prefer that one should not sit too long after the first two rak'ah, and that he should not add anything to the tashahud."

Also, remember to join the How to Perform Salat Class to learn more about the correct way to pray.

If you do not have access to the Voicechat room send me an email requesting access..

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
