English Translation

Rawh told us: Hajjaj told us: Shu'bah told us, from Muhammad b. Abd al-Rahman, the freed slave of the family of Talhah, who said: I heard Kurayb, the freed slave of Ibn Abbas, relate from Ibn Abbas, from Juwayriyyah bint al-Harith, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, came to me in the early morning while I was engaged in glorifying Allah, then he went off on some errand and returned close to midday. He said, "Have you remained sitting all this time?" I said, "Yes." He said: "Shall I not teach you words that, if weighed against all that you have glorified since you began, would outweigh them, or if measured against them, would match them?" - meaning, equal to all that she had glorified: "Glory be to Allah, the number of His creation" - three times; "Glory be to Allah, the weight of His Throne" - three times; "Glory be to Allah, according to the pleasure of His Self" - three times; "Glory be to Allah, the extent of His words" - three times.
