Narrated recitation

التَّحِيَّاتُ لِلَّهِ، وَالصَّلَوَاتُ وَالطَّيِّبَاتُ، السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ، السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَى عِبَادِ اللَّهِ الصَّالِحِينَ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ

Approximate Roman guide: At-tahiyyatu lillahi, was-salawatu wat-tayyibat…

Our concise English rendering
Greetings, prayers, and good things belong to Allah. Peace, Allah’s mercy, and His blessings be upon you, Prophet. Peace be upon us and Allah’s righteous servants. I testify that none is worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger.

This lesson follows the wording in the cited Ibn Masud report. The short Roman guide covers the opening only. Other authentic tashahhud wordings are also narrated, including Muslim 403a.
