1 أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم.
Dear sister @strivingoukhtii I know you are doing this with ikhlās and as such you want to correct something you feel is wrong. But one needs to have an adequate knowledge of what he/she wants to make correction on

2. يا أيها ذى التى قد جاء ترشدنا
سمعا لما قلت فاسمع أنت ما قلنا

نصحت جهدك لكن ليت تعذرنا
وقلت سبحان هذا كان بهتان

Whatever one does he should have a proof for it.
بل الإنسان على نفسه بسيرا

I hope you will read to the end. Pls don't get tired
3. SALATUL FATIHI IN THE FOLD OF QUR'AN AND SUNNAH

As Salat literally means ADDUĀH.

That is the most frequent use of it, save the Five daily prayers which has a specific form of carrying it out..

The prophet was reported to have said:
4. اللهم صل على آل أبي أوفى
Oh Allah have mercy upon the household of Abu Aufā...

It connotes a prayer for them..

A jahiliyyah poet says ;

إذا ما غضبنا غضبة مضرية ##
هتكنا حجاب الخوف أو قطرت دما
Whenever we get angry severely, we destroy without fear or blood will be
5. spilled if we are to be challenged.

إذا ما أعرنا سيدا من قبيلة ##
ذرى منبر صلى علينا وسلما

Whenever we assign a leader to a tribe as soon as he ascend the puppet he great us and pray for us.

Allah SWA enjoins the believing Muslims to engage in saying SALAWĀT (Prayers)
6. to the noblest of mankind prophet Muhammad SAW , and that is contained in Suratul Ahzab vs 56:

إن الله وملائكته يصلون على النبي يا أيها الذين آمنوا صلوا عليه وسلموا تسليما

Most certainly, Allah and His angels engages in sending prayers (SALAWĀT) to the prophet - Muhammad
7. - SAW, Oh you who believe send your prayers and enough salutations to him (SAW) .

And Allah promised that when we do this assignment in which Allah Himself partake on as against other worships, He will also say the prayer for us. He said :

هو الذى يصلى عليكم وملائكته
8. ليخرجكم من الظلمات إلى النور وكان بالمؤمنين رحيما

He - Allah - is the One that says prayer (mercy) for you (Mankind) and His angels in other to bring you out of darkness to light , and Allah is merciful to the believers.

And the prophet SAW was reported to have mentioned in
9. multiple Hadiths the benefits of sending this Salat upon him. The best of examples to show this goes thus:

ﺮﻭﻯ ﻣﺴﻠﻢ (408 ) ﻋَﻦْ ﺃَﺑِﻲ ﻫُﺮَﻳْﺮَﺓَ، ﺃَﻥَّ ﺭَﺳُﻮﻝَ ﺍﻟﻠﻪِ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢَ ﻗَﺎﻝَ :
10. «ﻣَﻦْ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﻋَﻠَﻲَّ ﻭَﺍﺣِﺪَﺓً ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻋَﺸْﺮًﺍ » .

Muslim from Abu Hurairah that the prophet SAW said :
" He who says a single Salāt upon me Allah will say ten to him ".

ﻭﻗﻮﻟﻪ : « ﻭﻣﻦ ﺻﻠﻰ ﻋﻠﻲ ﻋﺸﺮ ﻣﺮﺍﺕ ﺻﻠﻰ
11. ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻣﺎﺋﺔ ﻣﺮﺓ »
And again: " whoever says ten Salawāt upon me Allah will say 100 to him ".

ﺭﻭﻯ ﻧﺤﻮﺍ ﻣﻨﻪ ﺍﻟﻄﺒﺮﺍﻧﻲ ﻓﻲ " ﺍﻟﻤﻌﺠﻢ ﺍﻷﻭﺳﻂ " (7235 ) ، ﻭﺍﻟﺼﻐﻴﺮ " (899 )

ﻋَﻦْ ﺃَﻧَﺲِ ﺑْﻦِ ﻣَﺎﻟِﻚٍ ﻗَﺎﻝَ
12. : ﻗَﺎﻝَ ﺭَﺳُﻮﻝُ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪِ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢَ :
« ﻣَﻦْ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﻋَﻠَﻲَّ ﺻَﻠَﺎﺓً ﻭَﺍﺣِﺪَﺓً ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻋَﺸْﺮًﺍ، ﻭَﻣَﻦْ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﻋَﻠَﻲَّ ﻋَﺸْﺮًﺍ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ
13. ﻣِﺎﺋَﺔً، ﻭَﻣَﻦْ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﻋَﻠَﻲَّ ﻣِﺎﺋَﺔً ﻛَﺘَﺐَ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪُ ﺑَﻴْﻦَ ﻋَﻴْﻨَﻴْﻪِ : ﺑَﺮَﺍﺀَﺓً ﻣِﻦَ ﺍﻟﻨِّﻔَﺎﻕِ، ﻭَﺑَﺮَﺍﺀَﺓً ﻣِﻦَ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺎﺭِ، ﻭﺃَﺳْﻜَﻨَﻪُ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪُ ﻳَﻮْﻡَ ﺍﻟْﻘِﻴَﺎﻣَﺔِ ﻣَﻊَ ﺍﻟﺸُّﻬَﺪَﺍﺀِ
14.
At-tabraniyy in Jamiul Kabir and Sageer, from Anass Bn Malik that the prophet SAW said:
"Whoever says one salāt upon me Allah will say ten to him, and whoever says ten Salawāt upon me Allah will say 100 to him and whoever says 100 Salawāt upon me Allah will write in between
15. his eyes (forehead) innocence from hypocrisy and innocence from hell and Allah will make him to dwell among the martyrs on the day of recompense.
So when the companions learnt about the commandment of Allah to say Salawāt upon his prophet they ran to him seeking to know what
16. the Salawāt may look like, since they already know about the Salutation (As Salam).

The Prophet SAW answer by saying the famous salatul Ibrahim

عن ﻛﻌﺐ ﺑﻦ ﻋﺠﺮﺓ ﺭﺿﻲ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ﻗﻴﻞ ﻳﺎ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺃﻣﺎ ﺍﻟﺴﻼﻡ ﻋﻠﻴﻚ ﻓﻘﺪ ﻋﺮﻓﻨﺎﻩ
17. ﻓﻜﻴﻒ ﺍﻟﺼﻼﺓ ﻋﻠﻴﻚ ﻗﺎﻝ ﻗﻮﻟﻮﺍ ﺍﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺻﻞ ﻋﻠﻰ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻭﻋﻠﻰ ﺁﻝ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻛﻤﺎ ﺻﻠﻴﺖ ﻋﻠﻰ آل ﺇﺑﺮﺍﻫﻴﻢ ﺇﻧﻚ ﺣﻤﻴﺪ ﻣﺠﻴﺪ ﺍﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺑﺎﺭﻙ ﻋﻠﻰ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻭﻋﻠﻰ ﺁﻝ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻛﻤﺎ ﺑﺎﺭﻛﺖ ﻋﻠﻰ آل ﺇﺑﺮﺍﻫﻴﻢ
18. ﺇﻧﻚ ﺣﻤﻴﺪ ﻣﺠﻴﺪ.
From Ka'ab bn Ujra may Allah be pleased with him said , it was said to the prophet SAW; as for Salutations (السلام) we have known it for long but how about the salāt upon you ? the prophet SAW said: Say Oh Allah say a Salāt upon Muhammad SAW and his
19. household as you have said to the household of Ibrahim AS , verily you are praise worthy and glorious. Oh Allah bless Muhammad saw and his household as you have blessed the household of Ibrahim AS indeed you are praise worthy and glorious.

البخارى ، كتاب تفسير الفرآن، سورة الأحزاب، باب قوله : إن الله وملائكته يصلون على النبى.

وكذا فى فتح البار فى شرح صحيح البخارى ، الإمام ابن حجر العسقلانى، ج 8 ص 392.

See Sahihul Bukhari and Fathul Bari volume 8 page 392

And Imam Ahmad in his Musnad seconded this hadith
21 same way Al-bukhari and other narrators mentioned it without the mention of :

كما صليت على إبراهيم... كما باركت على إبراهيم...

Note the narration shows :
كما صليت على آل إبراهيم ....كما باركت على آل إبراهيم
Al-Imam An Nasai and Ibn mājah narrated the hadith by the addition
22
كما صليت على إبراهيم وبارك على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما باركت على ( إبراهيم وعلى آل إبراهيم )........

ﻋﻦ ﺃﺑﻲ ﺳﻌﻴﺪ ﺍﻟﺨﺪﺭﻱ ، ﺭﺿﻲ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ، ﻗﺎﻝ : ﻗﻠﻨﺎ : ﻳﺎ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ، ﻫﺬﺍ السلام ﻓﻜﻴﻒ ﻧﺼﻠﻲ ﻋﻠﻴﻚ : ﻗﺎﻝ : " ﻗﻮﻟﻮﺍ :
23. ﺍﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺻﻞ ﻋﻠﻰ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻋﺒﺪﻙ ﻭﺭﺳﻮﻟﻚ ، ﻛﻤﺎ ﺻﻠﻴﺖ ﻋﻠﻰ ﺁﻝ ﺇﺑﺮﺍﻫﻴﻢ . ﻭﺑﺎﺭﻙ ﻋﻠﻰ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻭﻋﻠﻰ ﺁﻝ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ، ﻛﻤﺎ ﺑﺎﺭﻛﺖ ﻋﻠﻰ ﺁﻝ ﺇﺑﺮﺍﻫﻴﻢ "

رواه البخاري ...
From Abu Saeed Al-khudriyy may Allah be pleased with him
24. said, she said: Oh prophet of Allah, we know about Salutations (السلام) upon you, but how is prayers (salāt) upon you ?

The prophet said: Say ; " Oh Allah say Salāt upon Muhammad SAW your servant and prophet, as you have said it upon the household of Ibrahim, and bless
25. Muhammad SAW and his household as you have blessed the household of Ibrahim..

Recorded by Bukhari.

ﻗﺎﻝ ﺍﻹﻣﺎﻡ ﺃﺣﻤﺪ : ﻗﺮﺃﺕ ﻋﻠﻰ ﻋﺒﺪ ﺍﻟﺮﺣﻤﻦ : ﻣﺎﻟﻚ، ﻋﻦ ﻋﺒﺪ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺑﻦ ﺃﺑﻲ بكر ، ﻋﻦ ﺃﺑﻴﻪ ، ﻋﻦ ﻋﻤﺮﻭ ﺑﻦ ﺳﻠﻴﻢ ﺃﻧﻪ ﻗﺎﻝ

Imam Ahmad said: I read to Abdur Rahmān ; Malik from Abdullah bn Abu bakr from his Father, from Amr bn Salim that he said: Abu Hameed As Saeediyy informed that
28. they said: Oh Prophet of Allah, how do we say Salāt upon you ? He said :
Say ; Oh Allah say a salat upon Muhammad, his wives and progeny, as you have said it upon the household if Ibrahim and bless Muhammad SAW, his wives and progeny, as you have blessed the household of
29. Ibrahim, indeed you are praise worthy and glorious

After learning the four various type of salatul Ibrahimiyyah , the companions went ahead to carry on with the salawat as thought, and amongst them came other forms of salāt not directly recited by the prophet and never
30 mentioned the prophet thought them such.
ﻋﻦ ﻋﺒﺪ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺑﻦ ﻣﺴﻌﻮﺩ ، ﺭﺿﻲ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ، ﻗﺎﻝ: ﺇﺫﺍ ﺻﻠﻴﺘﻢ ﻋﻠﻰ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ ﻓﺄﺣﺴﻨﻮﺍ ﺍﻟﺼﻼﺓ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻓﺈﻧﻜﻢ ﻻ ﺗﺪﺭﻭﻥ ﻟﻌﻞ ﺫﻟﻚ ﻳﻌﺮﺽ

ﻣﺠﻴﺪ ، ﺍﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺑﺎﺭﻙ ﻋﻠﻰ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻭﻋﻠﻰ ﺁﻝ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﻛﻤﺎ ﺑﺎﺭﻛﺖ ﻋﻠﻰ ﺇﺑﺮﺍﻫﻴﻢ ﻭﻋﻠﻰ ﺁﻝ ﺇﺑﺮﺍﻫﻴﻢ ﺇﻧﻚ ﺣﻤﻴﺪ ﻣﺠﻴﺪ

From Ibn Mas'ud RA who said : whenever you send salawāt to the prophet SAW say it in the good form, perhaps the
salawāt are getting to the Prophet SAW. He said: They said; please teach us. He said: say;

اللهم اجعل صلواتك ورحمتك وبركاتك على سيد المرسلين .......

Imam Aliy has a broader one which has some of the words of the SALATUL FĀTIHI which is our centre of discussion today...
ﺣﺪﻳﺚ ﺁﺧﺮ ﻣﻮﻗﻮﻑ : ﺭﻭﻳﻨﺎﻩ ﻣﻦ ﻃﺮﻳﻖ ﺳﻌﻴﺪ ﺑﻦ ﻣﻨﺼﻮﺭ ﻭﺯﻳﺪ ﺑﻦ ﺍﻟﺤﺒﺎﺏ ﻭﻳﺰﻳﺪ ﺑﻦ ﻫﺎﺭﻭﻥ ، ﺛﻼﺛﺘﻬﻢ ﻋﻦ ﻧﻮﺡ ﺑﻦ ﻗﻴﺲ : ﺣﺪﺛﻨﺎ ﺳﻼﻣﺔ ﺍﻟﻜﻨﺪﻱ : ﺃﻥ ﻋﻠﻴﺎ ، ﺭﺿﻲ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ، ﻛﺎﻥ ﻳﻌﻠﻢ ﺍﻟﻨﺎﺱ
ﻫﺬﺍ ﺍﻟﺪﻋﺎﺀ :
A mawquf hadith narrated from Saeed bn Mansoor and Zaid bn Al- Habbab and Yazid Bn Haroon all from Nuh bn Qais that Salamata Al-kindiyyu told us that Aliy RA use to teach the following salat
ﺍﻟﻠﻬﻢ ﺩﺍﺣﻲ ﺍﻟﻤﺪﺣﻮﺍﺕ ﻭﺑﺎﺭﺉ ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻤﻮﻛﺎﺕ

The both hadith from Abdullahi Ibn Mas'ud RA and Aliy RA depicts that the prophet only thought the Companions a format on how to say your Salawāt to him.
If there was to be a one and only way to say Salat to the prophet , the prophet himself wouldn't have been reported to have mentioned only Salatul Ibrahim in more than 3 ways and methods ..

Assalat here means Addu'a as we have explained, so it only take one who doesn't want
the truth to still think sending prayers to the prophet has only one form.

Again, the prophet SAW was also reported to have said that after the Adhān to prayer is called :
سلوا لى الوسيلة
Pray for means (to intercede)...,
That's after the Adhan as a Muslim who hear the adhān
you are expected to say:

اللهم رب هذه دعوة تامة وصلاة قائمة آت محمد الوسيلة والفضيلة والدرجة الرفيعة وابعثه المقام المحمود الذى وعدته....
And if any one say a salat and ask for the Wasilah for the prophet as directed by him those fuddy duddy will still tell you its not accepted
since they are custodians of heaven and hell...may Allah safeguard our Imān for us.

Now back to Salatul Fatih, it recites thus :

اللهم صل على سيدنا محمد الفاتح لما أغلق والخاتم لما سبق ناصر الحق بالحق والهادى إلى صراطك المستقيم وعلى آله حق قدره ومقداره العظيم.
Meaning :
Oh Allah say a salat to our leader Muhammad ; The opener to the closed And the seal to the forgone (prophets and messengers) supporter of truth with truth and the guide/conductor to the straight path and to say salawāt to his household with the value of his worth (to you Allah)
and his magnificent magnitude.

If you look at it again you can easily draw a similarly between this Salāt and that of Sayyiduna Aliy RA

Salatul Fatih is a standout Salat which has faced criticism from many so called scholars whom hates the personality it was first heard from ..
Record has it that Sheikh Muhammad Al-Bakriyy (one of the prominent sufi and Walliyyullahi of his time ) made a devotion to Allah to teach him a prayer upon the prophet which garner a lot of benefits and as such he set out for worship towards it, and finally a little slumber
got him and he was thought the Salatul Fatih in his dream by the prophet SAW and upon waking up he saw a paper close to him carrying this same Salatul Fatih on it.
See books of Sufism and non sufist while making commentary about Salatul Fatih.
Before you start to confuse yourself
of how should a religious practice gotten from a mere dream taken ?

The answer is YES , why ? Because the Adhan we call today was taught to a companion in his dream and Umar Bn Al Khattab affirmed he also saw the same dream then the prophet direct them to teach Bilal the Adhan
as he has a Louder and sweeter voice. of how should a religious practice gotten from a mere dream taken ?

The answer is YES , why ? Because the Adhan we call today was taught to a companion in his dream and Umar Bn Al Khattab affirmed he also saw the same dream then the prophet
direct them to teach Bilal the Adhan as he has a Louder and sweeter voice.
Now Adhan is gotten from a dream same as Salatul Fatih, if your insinuation that Salatul Fatih is not accepted by Allah simply because it was gotten from a dream then you should as well condemn the Adhan
and have a stand that Allah doesn't accept it too..

May Allah save us from hypocrisy..

And to further confirm the validity of Salatul Fatih, Sheikh Ahmad Tijani RA was taught the salāt by the prophet in a wake mode not dream

Does this have bases in Islam ?
Let's ask the Qura'an and the hadith

Q10 vs 62
ﺃﻻ ﺇﻥ ﺃﻭﻟﻴﺎﺀ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻻ ﺧﻮﻑ ﻋﻠﻴﻬﻢ ﻭﻻ ﻫﻢ ﻳﺤﺰﻧﻮﻥ ( 62 )
Nay ! The friends of Allah knows no fear nor sadness

ﺍﻟﺬﻳﻦ ﺁﻣﻨﻮﺍ ﻭﻛﺎﻧﻮﺍ ﻳﺘﻘﻮﻥ ( 63 )
(They are) those who believe
and always fear Allah.

ﻟﻬﻢ ﺍﻟﺒﺸﺮﻯ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻟﺤﻴﺎﺓ ﺍﻟﺪﻧﻴﺎ ﻭﻓﻲ ﺍﻵﺧﺮﺓ ﻻ ﺗﺒﺪﻳﻞ ﻟﻜﻠﻤﺎﺕ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺫﻟﻚ ﻫﻮ ﺍﻟﻔﻮﺯ ﺍﻟﻌﻈﻴﻢ ( 64 )

They have Al-bushrah in the life here on earth and the hereafter, there is no change to the decree of
llah, that is a great success.
The prophet SAW was asked the meaning of Al-bushrah , he said : its a good dream which a pious servant of Allah sees or another person sees for him.

ﻗﺎﻝ ﺍﻹﻣﺎﻡ ﺃﺣﻤﺪ ﻋﻦ ﻋﺒﺎﺩﺓ ﺑﻦ ﺍﻟﺼﺎﻣﺖ ؛ ﺃﻧﻪ ﺳﺄﻝ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺻ
ﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ ﻓﻘﺎﻝ : ﻳﺎ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ، ﺃﺭﺃﻳﺖ ﻗﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺗﻌﺎﻟﻰ : ( ﻟﻬﻢ ﺍﻟﺒﺸﺮﻯ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻟﺤﻴﺎﺓ ﺍﻟﺪﻧﻴﺎ ﻭﻓﻲ ﺍﻵﺧﺮﺓ ) ؟
ﻓﻘﺎﻝ : " ﻟﻘﺪ ﺳﺄﻟﺘﻨﻲ ﻋﻦ ﺷﻲﺀ ﻣﺎ ﺳﺄﻟﻨﻲ ﻋﻨﻪ ﺃﺣﺪ ﻣﻦ ﺃﻣﺘﻲ -
ﺃﻭ : ﺃﺣﺪ ﻗﺒﻠﻚ " ﻗﺎﻝ " : ﺗﻠﻚ ﺍﻟﺮﺅﻳﺎ ﺍﻟﺼﺎﻟﺤﺔ ، ﻳﺮﺍﻫﺎ ﺍﻟﺮﺟﻞ ﺍﻟﺼﺎﻟﺢ ﺃﻭ ﺗﺮﻯ ﻟﻪ . "

Imam Ahmad from Ubadatah bn Sāmit that he asked the prophet SAW saying: Oh prophet of Allah please tell the meaning of the saying of Allah لهم البشرى
The Prophet SAW said: you have asked me what nobody has ever asked me among my nation, indeed Al-bushrah means a righteous dream seen by a Muslim or seen for him..

ﻭﻛﺬﺍ ﺭﻭﺍﻩ ﺃﺑﻮ ﺩﺍﻭﺩ ﺍﻟﻄﻴﺎﻟﺴﻲ ، ﻋﻦ ﻋﻤﺮﺍﻥ ﺍﻟﻘﻄﺎﻥ ، ﻋﻦ ﻳﺤﻴﻰ ﺑﻦ ﺃﺑﻲ
ﻴﺮ ، ﺑﻪ ﻭﺭﻭﺍﻩ [ ﺹ: 280 ] ﺍﻷﻭﺯﺍﻋﻲ ، ﻋﻦ ﻳﺤﻴﻰ ﺑﻦ ﺃﺑﻲ ﻛﺜﻴﺮ ، ﻓﺬﻛﺮﻩ . ﻭﺭﻭﺍﻩ ﻋﻠﻲ ﺑﻦ ﺍﻟﻤﺒﺎﺭﻙ ، ﻋﻦ ﻳﺤﻴﻰ ، ﻋﻦ ﺃﺑﻲ ﺳﻠﻤﺔ ﻗﺎﻝ : ﻧﺒﺌﻨﺎ ﻋﻦ ﻋﺒﺎﺩﺓ ﺑﻦ ﺍﻟﺼ
ﺎﻣﺖ ، ﺳﺄﻝ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ ﻋﻦ ﻫﺬﻩ ﺍﻵﻳﺔ ، ﻓﺬﻛﺮﻩ

Abu Dawood Ad dayalusi also narrated it from Imrān Al-Qattan from Yahaya bn Abiy katheer ....

And AL-Auzaiih from Yahaya bn Abi Katheer ...
Also Ali bn Al-mubārak from Yahaya from Abi salamah said ; Tell us about Ubadatu Bn Sāmit asking the prophet about this verse ...and he mentioned the above hadith

ﺣﺪﺛﻨﺎ ﺃﺑﻮ ﺍﻟﻴﻤﺎﻥ ﺃﺧﺒﺮﻧﺎ ﺷﻌﻴﺐ ﻋﻦ ﺍﻟﺰﻫﺮﻱ ﺣﺪﺛﻨﻲ ﺳﻌﻴﺪ ﺑﻦ ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻴﺐ
ﺃﻥ ﺃﺑﺎ ﻫﺮﻳﺮﺓ ﻗﺎﻝ ﺳﻤﻌﺖ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ ﻳﻘﻮﻝ ﻟﻢ ﻳﺒﻖ ﻣﻦ ﺍﻟﻨﺒﻮﺓ ﺇﻻ ﺍﻟﻤﺒﺸﺮﺍﺕ ﻗﺎﻟﻮﺍ ﻭﻣﺎ ﺍﻟﻤﺒﺸﺮﺍﺕ ﻗﺎﻝ ﺍﻟﺮﺅﻳﺎ ﺍﻟﺼﺎﻟﺤﺔ

Abul yaman told us, Shuaib AZ zuhuri informed us, Saeed
bn Al-musayyib told me that Abu Hurairah RA said:

I heard the prophet SAW, saying: Nothing is left of prophethood (after me) save Al-mubashirat, they asked ; what is Al-mubashirāt ?
He said : a righteous dream

And Sheikh Tijani as we mentioned said to have learnt the Salāt
from the prophet SAW, is that also evident ?

YES ...

see Al-Bukhari, Muslim, Ibn Majah and the rest ....:

عن ﺃﺑﻲ ﻫﺮﻳﺮﺓ ﻗﺎﻝ : ﻗﺎﻝ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﷺ: «ﻣﻦ ﺭﺁﻧﻲ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻟﻤﻨﺎﻡ ﻓﺴﻴﺮﺍﻧﻲ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻟﻴﻘﻈﺔ - ﺃﻭ ﻛﺄﻧﻤﺎ ﺭﺁﻧﻲ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻟﻴﻘﻈﺔ
، ﻻ ﻳﺘﻤﺜﻞ ﺍﻟﺸﻴﻄﺎﻥ ﺑﻲ »
From Abi Hurairah said: the prophet SAW said:

" Whoever sees me in his dream shall see in a wake mode, or is like he saw me in a wake mode, for the devil can never copy my image.

ﻣﺘﻔﻖ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ.
Bukhari and Muslim
The claim of Sheikh tijani then becomes a fact.

In summary, Salāt upon the prophet comes in different mode, because the word itself means prayer.

We have just seen different type of salawat from above now, and that of ALIY RA is a very perfect reference for Salatul Fatih..
We don't have time to say more but Lastly, the SALATUL FATIHI itself completely carries what the Qur'an and Hadith has said about the prophet it goes thus:

اللهم صل على محمد

محمد رسول الله .....سورة القتال

وآمنوا بما نزل على محمد ....سورة محمد 2
الفاتح لما أغلق ...
قال رسول الله ص : آتى أبواب الجنة يوم القيامة فيقول الخازن من أنت فأقول محمد ، فيقول بك أمرت ألا أفتح لأحد قبلك
I will come to the doors of Paradise on judgement day, and the guard will say , who are you ? I will say Muhammad, he will say you are the
one I was ordered to open the door for before anyone.

والخاتم لم سبق.......

ما كان محمد أبا أحد من رجالكم ولكن رسول الله وخاتم النبيين....سورة الأحزاب 40

ناصر الحق بالحق والهادى إلى صراطك المستقيم

وإنك لتهدى إلى صراط المستقيم ...سورة الشورى 52
So brethren you are left with the option to say a good Salāt upon the prophet or say the one you hear people say, all are accepted and Allah knows the rewards.
May Allah bless us with the sweetness of IMĀN...
وصلى الله على سيدنا محمد الفاتح لما أغلق والخاتم لما سبق ناصر الحق
بالحق والهادى إلى صراط المستقم وعلى آله حق قدره ومقداره العظيم..
