Is it better in the first tashahhud to stand up when the tashahhud is finished, or to send blessings upon the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, in the first tashahhud, what is better: to stand up when the tashahhud is finished, or is it better to send blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and then say?

Answer:
The majority hold that one stands up when the sending of blessings upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is finished in the tashahhud, at the point of the two testimonies: "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger." The majority hold this view, and the sending of blessings upon the Prophet in the tashahhud is in the last tashahhud. This is the position of the majority of the scholars of knowledge. Some scholars hold that one sends blessings upon the Prophet in the first tashahhud, and Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him) issues fatwas based on this. Yes.
