The best Zikr is the Salwaat (ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA MUHAMMAD WA AALI MUHAMMAD). That is why it is obligatory in every Prayer and no Prayer (Salah) can be valid with out the Salawaat. Hadeeths on the greatness of Salawaat are too many.

Reciting Durood (Salawaat) is always highly recommended whenever the Prophet (SAWA) is mentioned. It is not enough to remember it in your heart, but we need to recite it. If the situation does not allow to say it loudly,then whisper it.

'The Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) clearly told the z Muslims to salute his progeny with him. He ordered Muslims to avoid the cut off salutation which does not salute his progeny with him. لا تُصَلّوا عليّ الصلاة البتراء.

Salawaat is part of compulsory parts of Namaz as it was tought to the Prophet (SAWA) by Allah (SWT). The Prophet (SAWA) recited Salawaat in every Namaz and ordered Muslims to recite Namaz as he recited.

Salawaat is the greatest Du'a and it includes the main faith in Allah and His Messenger (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS).

Deliberately leaving Salawaat invalidates the Namaz.
