Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 31815 — The speech Allah has chosen
٣١٨١٥ - حدثنا مصعب بن المقدام قال: حدثني إسرائيل عن أبي سنان ضرار بن مرة عن أبي صالح الحنفي عن أبي سعيد الخدري وأبي هريرة قال: قال رسول اللَّه ﷺ: "إن اللَّه اصطفى من الكلام أربعًا: سبحان اللَّه والحمد للَّه ولا إله إلا اللَّه واللَّه أكبر"، ثم قال: "من قال: سبحان اللَّه كتب له عشرون حسنة وحط عنه عشرون سيئة، ومن قال: اللَّه أكبر فمثل ذلك، ومن قال: لا إله إلا اللَّه فمثل ذلك، ومن قال: الحمد للَّه رب العالمين من قبل نفسه (كتبت) (١) له (٢) ثلاثون حسنة وحط عنه ⦗٣٥٩⦘ ثلاثون سيئة" (٣).
Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri and Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah has chosen four phrases out of all speech: Allah is free from every imperfection; all praise belongs to Allah; there is no god but Allah; and Allah is the Greatest." Then he said: "Whoever says: 'Allah is free from every imperfection,' twenty good deeds are written for him and twenty of his sins are erased. Whoever says: 'Allah is the Greatest,' has the same reward. Whoever says: 'There is no god but Allah,' has the same reward. And whoever says of his own accord: 'All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds,' thirty good deeds are written for him and thirty of his sins are erased."
