((اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى أَزْوَاجِهِ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ، كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. وَبَارِكْ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى أَزْواجِهِ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ، كَمَا بَارَكْتَ عَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ)).
(Allahumma salli AAala Muhammad wa-AAala azwajihi wathurriyyatihi kama sallayta AAala ali Ibraheem, wabarik AAala Muhammad, wa-AAala azwajihi wathurriyyatih, kama barakta AAala ali Ibraheem. innaka Hameedun Majeed.)
(O Allah, send prayers upon Muhammad and upon the wives and descendants of Muhammad, just as You sent prayers upon the family of Ibraheem, and send blessings upon Muhammad and upon the wives and descendants of Muhammad, just as You sent blessings upon the family of Ibraheem. Verily, You are full of praise and majesty.)

Context & meaning
The request is made twice with one word changed. Prayers are asked for upon Muhammad ﷺ and upon his wives and descendants; then blessings are asked for upon the same three. Each half carries the same comparison — just as You sent prayers, and just as You sent blessings, upon the family of Ibraheem. The final line stops requesting and describes Him instead, as full of praise and majesty.
When & how to recite
Abu Humaid as-Sa'idi reported it, and the chapter places it after the Tashahhud.
Reflection
Wives and descendants are named separately rather than folded into a single word, while the comparison uses family for Ibraheem. The two halves differ only in prayers against blessings.
