Short Salawat
Below is a non-exhaustive list of short salawat. The aim of this list is to allow abundant salawat to be read using the shortest formulas. It is best practice to mention the word Sayyidina (Our Master) before the blessed name of Muhammad ﷺ. The most complete form of salawat would be to mention salat, salam and the family of the Prophet ﷺ (see salat 7).

If I do ‘allāhumma ṣalli ʿalā Muḥammad’, and then continue saying ‘wa ṣalli ʿalā Muḥammad’ for thousands of times, do you think it is appropriate and respectful? Or should I not shorten it? I want to shorten it so I can do tens of thousands of prayers upon him ﷺ with focus and love.
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rehmat-Ullahi wa Barakaatuhu.
Jazak Allah khair 💙
