Many muslims when praying their daily prayers have to say the Salat Ibrahimiya.

The Salat Ibrahimiya is "Allahumma Salli 'ala Muhammad wa Ahl-e Muhammad Kama Sallayta 'ala Ibrahim wa Ahl-e Ibrahim fi-l 'Alameen innaka Hameedun Majid." This translates to "Oh God exalt Muhammad and his progeny as you have exalted Ibrahim and his progeny in these worlds as You are All Praiseworthy All Glorious."

There is also a number of other honorifics that are used for Muhammad.
