This may be interpreted as follows:
All reverence, all worship, all sanctity are due to God.
Peace be upon you, O prophet and the mercy of God and His blessings.
Peace be upon us all and on the righteous servants of God.
I bear witness that there is no god but God alone,
And I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and His Messenger
(This part is recited after the second unit in every prayer consisting of three or four
units and then the worshipper stands up for the third unit.)
The Second Part
Allahumma salli ‘ala Muhammad Çááåã Õá Úáì ãÍãÏ
Wa ‘ala ale Muhammad æ Úáì Âá ãÍãÏ
Kama sallayta ‘ala Ibraheem ßãÇ ÕáíÊ Úáì ÇÈÑÇåíã
Wa ‘ala ale Ibraheem æ Úáì Âá ÇÈÑÇåíã
Wa Barek ala Muhammad æ ÈÇÑß Úáì ãÍãÏ
Wa ala ale Muhammad æ Úáì Âá ãÍãÏ

Wa 'ala ale Ibrahem æ Úáì Âá ÇÈÑÇåíã
Fil –‘ala Meena innaka hameeddun majeed Ýí ÇáÚÇáãíä Åäß ÍãíÏ ãÌíÏ
This may be interpreted as follows:
O God! Exalt Muhammad and the people of Muhammad,
As You did exalt Abraham and the people of Abraham.
And bless Muhammad and the people of Muhammad
As You did bless Abraham and the people of Abraham
Indeed You are praiseworthy, and glorious
(The two parts of the Tashahhud are recited in the last unit concluding any prayer,
With the end of the second part followed by the peace greetings, the prayer is
completed. The second part alone is recited in the funeral prayer after the third
Takbeer.)
