عَنِ ابنِ عُمرَ رَضِيَ اللّهُ عَنْهُمَا قالَ: كانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلّى اللّهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّمَ إذا قَفَلَ مِنَ الحَجِّ أَوِ العُمْرَةِ كُلَّما أَوْفى عَلى ثَنِيَّةٍ أَوْ فَدْفَدٍ كَبَّرَ ثَلاثًا، ثُمَّ قالَ: «لَا إِلٰهَ إلّا اللّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ المُلْكُ، ولَهُ الحمْدُ، وَهُوَ على كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عابِدُونَ ساجِدُونَ لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ، صَدَقَ اللّهُ وَعْدَهُ، وَنَصرَ عبْدَهُ، وَهَزَمَ الأَحزَابَ وحْدَهُ» مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ. وفي رِوَايَةٍ لمُسْلِمٍ: إِذا قَفَل مِنَ الجُيُوشِ أوِ السَّرَايا أَوِ الحَجِّ أوِ العُمْرَةِ.
Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) reported: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from Hajj or Umrah, whenever he ascended a height or high ground he would say "Allah is the Greatest" three times, then he would say: "There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner; His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. We return, repenting, worshipping, prostrating to our Lord, and praising Him. Allah has fulfilled His promise, granted victory to His servant, and defeated the confederates alone." Agreed upon (al-Bukhari and Muslim). In a narration of Muslim: When he returned from the armies or the expeditions, or from Hajj or Umrah.
