Many muslims when praying their daily prayers have to say the Salat Ibrahimiya.

The Salat Ibrahimiya is "Allahumma Salli 'ala Muhammad wa Ahl-e Muhammad Kama Sallayta 'ala Ibrahim wa Ahl-e Ibrahim wa baareek 'ala Muhammad wa Ahl-e Muhammad Kama Baarakta 'ala Ibrahim wa 'ala Ahl-e Ibrahim fi-l 'Alameen innaka Hameedum Majid." This translates to "Oh God exalt Muhammad and his progeny as you have exalted Ibrahim and his progeny, and bless Muhammad and his progeny as You have blessed Ibrahim and his progeny in these worlds as You are All Praiseworthy All Glorious."

Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to describe this or any of the following phrases as 'honorifics', since the latter are titles (as in the Persian form Hadrat-i Muhammad, where the honorific precedes the name). There seems to be no precise English word for the terms discussed here, but salawat could translate as 'blessings' or even 'prayers'.

There is also a number of other blessings that are used for Muhammad.
