Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ بَيْنَا نَحْنُ نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ قَالَ رَجُلٌ فِي الْقَوْمِ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيرًا وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَثِيرًا وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ الْقَائِلُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْقَوْمِ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ عَجِبْتُ لَهَا فُتِحَتْ لَهَا أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَمَا تَرَكْتُهُنَّ مُنْذُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ.
English Translation
Isma'il ibn Ibrahim narrated to us: al-Hajjaj ibn Abi 'Uthman narrated to us, from Abu al-Zubayr, from 'Awn ibn 'Abdullah ibn 'Utba, from Ibn 'Umar, who said: While we were praying with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, a man among the people said: "Allah is greatest, greatly; praise be to Allah abundantly; and glory be to Allah morning and evening." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Who said such-and-such?" A man among the people said, "I did, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "I marveled at it - the gates of heaven were opened for it." Ibn 'Umar said: I have not left them off since I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say that.
