Salat Al-Aishah(RADIYALLAHU ANHA):

“The Salutation of Aisha” [salatu-l 'â'ishah] is the Prophetic benediction that distinguishes the Arusi-Qadiri spiritual path [tariqah]. It is one of the three elements of the Arusi-Qadiri litany [wirdu-t tarîq].
In the Shafi’i fiqh compendium, fathu-d dayyân fi fiqhi khairi-l adyân, our Grand-Shaikh, Imam al-’Arus (may Allah perfume his resting abode), introduces the salutation as follows:
… I give below the salutation [salat] that my spiritual master [shaikh] (i.e. Taika Sahib Abdu-l Qadir al-Kirkari), may Allah have mercy on him, advised me to recite.  This is the same salutation that Lady Aisha (Allah be pleased with her) recited ten-thousand (10,000) times every day. When the Prophet (Allah bless him and gave him peace) came to know of it, he said to her, “You reciting this salutation once will bring you the merit of reciting a hundred-thousand (100,000) salutations.”
Our Shaikhuna has mentioned in his panacea for the body and soul, Al-Munjiyat, that reciting this salutation 1,000 times on Friday nights (i.e. Thursday evenings) is a means to beholding the vision of the beloved Prophet’s blessed countenance in one’s dreams, Allah bless him and give him peace.
A slightly different version of this salutation without the words “… wa sallim wa bârik …” and “… wa ālihi wa sahbihi …” is also popularly known as durûd-e-sa’âdat. It is found in the third hizb of the famed, Dala’il Al-Khairat of Imam Abu ‘Abdu-Llah Muhammad b. Sulaiman al-Jazuli, Allah be pleased with him.
The luminous Koran exegete [mufassir] Imam Abu-l Fadl Jalalu-d Din al-Suyuti, Allah be pleased with him, is reported to have said that a single recitation of this salutation (i.e. durûd-e-sa’âdat) yields 600,000 rewards, and anyone who recites it 1,000 times will be fortunate in both worlds.
Success is from Allah.

The Salutation of Aisha(RA)

اَللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ وَ بَارِكْ عَلٰى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَّاٰلِهٖ وَصَحْبِهٖ، عَدَدَ مَا فِيْ عِلْمِ اللّٰه صَلَاةً دَائِمَةً بِدَوَامِ مُلْكِ اللّٰه
Allāhumma salli wa sallim wa bārik ‘alā sayyidinā Muhammadin wa ālihi wa sahbihi, adada mā fī ‘ilmi-Llāhi salātan dā’imatan bi dawāmi mulki-Llāh
O Allāh, bestow your benedictions, peace and blessings upon our liege-lord Muhammad, his family and companions, in the number that is in Thy Knowledge, such that those benedictions may continue forever eternal as Thy Kingdom.
And Allah is the Guide.
