Short form of Durud [salutations] and Istighfar

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by HadithAnswers.com

I would like to know which is the smallest durud [salutations] and istighfar which one can recite everyday.

Normally in durud [salutations] I recite only “sallallahu ‘alayhi wassalam” and in istighfar  “astaghfirullah”. Is it okay to recite only this much?

Answer

What you have been reciting is sufficient.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
