1906. It was narrated from 'Aqil bin Abu Tālib that he married a woman from Banu Jusham, and they said: "May you live in harmony and have many sons." He said: "Do not say that, rather say what the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Allāhumma bārik lahum wa bārik alaihim' (O Allāh, bless them and bestow blessings upon them.)" (Hasan)

Arabic text

1906 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَشْعَثُ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ عَقِيلِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، أَنَّهُ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي جُشَمَ، فَقَالُوا: بِالرَّفَاءِ، وَالْبَنِينَ، فَقَالَ: لَا تَقُولُوا هَكَذَا، وَلَكِنْ قُولُوا كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَهُمْ، وَبَارِكْ عَلَيْهِمْ»

Commentary

Congratulating the bridegroom, and the bride of marriage, and making supplication of good for them, is in accordance with the Sunnah. The best way to congratulate and supplicate is to say the blessed words which the noble Prophet ﷺ uttered with his blessed tongue.
