Dhikr of Salām
Issue No.990- In the last rak‘at of all prayers, after reciting tashahhud, it is obligatory to recite salām, and salām has three formulas: 1- اَلسَّلامُ عَلَيْکَ اَيُّهَا النَّبِىُّ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَ بَرَکاتُهُ, 2- اَلسَّلامُ عَلَيْنا وَ عَلي عِبادِ اللهِ الصالِحينَ, 3- اَلسلامُ عَلَيْکُمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَ بَرَکاتُهُ. The obligatory salām is the third one, and if one recites specifically this one, it would be sufficient. However, it is not sufficient if only the second one is recited, as an obligatory precaution. The first salām is recommended.
