The dua for prayers upon the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) after the tashahhud is the salat or Salat or durood, which Muslims recite in their ritual salah 5 times a day. It is incumbent upon every Muslim to send blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) during their salah. It is an obligatory part of the ritual prayer, and forgetting to recite salat invalidates salah.
The dearest of all to Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) is the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), and to send blessings and prayers upon him is to attain the pleasure and goodwill of Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى). The dua for prayers upon the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) is also called Durood and is one of the most frequently recited duas in the Muslim world.
After a believer is done with reciting tashahhud or At-Tahiyyaat in the prayer (namaz), the next step is to send blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and ask Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) to send His favors and blessings upon the Prophet (ﷺ). It is an excellent way of invoking peace on Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and is an essential part of not only our prayers but also our day-to-day life (Sahih Muslim 406 a). The dua was suggested by the Prophet (ﷺ) himself when asked by the companions regarding sending salah and blessings upon him ( Sunan an-Nasa'i 1290). To put an emphasis on the benefits of reciting salat, Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) also reiterates the prayer upon Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) in the Quran. Allah says:
Indeed, Allah showers His blessings upon the Prophet, and His angels pray for him. O believers! Invoke Allah's blessings upon him and salute him with worthy greetings of peace. Al-Ahzab 33:56

Durood-e-Ebrahimi is recited as the dua for prayers upon the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) after the tashahhud during salah. After reciting Attahiyyaat, the saleh (believer offering prayer) recites the durood-e-Ebrahimi and then says salam. Outside of the ritual prayer, Muslims can recite any form of salat to show their love with their words.
The dua for prayers upon the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) after the tashahhud has the major benefit of getting your sins forgiven. It purifies the good deeds of the reciter, and his ranks are elevated. It provides sustenance from Allah's (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) side to the believer, and he is awarded from amongst His countless and limitless bounties. Other benefits include the protection of the believer from poverty. The prayer also grants a person safety from the wrath of Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى). Above all, reciting salat upon the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) is an act that Allah Himself partakes in – if a Muslim recites salah, they are performing an act that is beloved to Allah Azzawajal.
