1. The tashahhud of Ibn Mas'ood, who said, "The Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa

sallam) taught me the tashahhud, [with] my palm between his palms, the way he taught me Soorahs of the Qur'aan: All compliments (200), prayers (201) and pure words (202) are due to Allaah. Peace (203) be on you, O Prophet, and also the mercy of Allaah and His blessings (204). Peace be on us, and on the righteous slaves of Allaah. [For when one says that, it includes every righteous slave in the heaven and the earth.] I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allaah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and messenger. [This was while he was among us, but after he was taken, we would say: [Peace be on the Prophet] (205)
