977 — Musaddad narrated to us: Yazid ibn Zuray‘ narrated to us: Shu‘bah narrated to us this hadith. He said: "Send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, just as You sent blessings upon the family of Abraham."

978 — Muhammad ibn al-‘Ala’ narrated to us: Ibn Bishr narrated to us, from Mis‘ar, from al-Hakam, with his chain of transmission, to this effect:
"O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the family of Muhammad, just as You sent blessings upon Abraham. Indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious. O Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, just as You blessed the family of Abraham. Indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious."

Al-Bukhari (6357), Muslim (406) (66) and (67), al-Nasa’i in al-Kubra (1213), and Ibn Majah (904) also recorded it via multiple paths from Shu‘bah, with this chain of transmission. Their wording is: "upon the family of Abraham" in both places, and they added: "Indeed, You are Praiseworthy, Glorious" after the prayer as well.

It is also in Musnad Ahmad (18105) and Sahih Ibn Hibban (912).

Muslim (406) (68), al-Tirmidhi (489), and al-Nasa’i (1212) also recorded it via multiple paths from al-Hakam, with it. Al-Tirmidhi’s wording is: "just as You sent blessings upon Abraham … just as You blessed Abraham," and al-Nasa’i’s wording is: "upon Abraham and the family of Abraham" in both places. Muslim did not cite his wording.

Al-Bukhari (3370) also recorded it via the path of ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Isa, from Ibn Abi Layla, with it, with the wording: "upon Abraham and the family of Abraham" in both places.

Al-Hafiz said in al-Fath 11/156: "The truth is that the mention of Muhammad and Abraham, and the mention of the family of Muhammad and the family of Abraham, is established in the original report. Some narrators simply preserved what others did not."
