[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ came out while I was sitting moving my lips, so he said, "Why are you moving your lips?" I said, "I am remembering Allah, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Should I not tell you of something that, if you say it, and then continue to say it day and night, you will never fail to reach it?" I said, "Yes, please do." He said, "Say: 'Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah)' as many times as the number of His creation, and as many times as the number of everything in His Book, and as many times as the number of everything in His creation, and as many times as the number of everything in His creation, and as many times as the number of everything in His creation, and as many times as the number of everything in His creation, and as many times as the number of everything in His creation. And glorify and magnify Him like that."

خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَنَا جَالِسٌ أُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَيَّ فَقَالَ «بِمَ تُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَيْكَ؟» قُلْتُ أَذْكُرُ اللهَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَقَالَ «أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِشَيْءٍ إِذَا قُلْتَهُ ثُمَّ دَأَبْتَ اللَّيْلَ وَالنَّهَارَ لَمْ تَبْلُغْهُ؟» قُلْتُ بَلَى فَقَالَ «تَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَدَدَ مَا أَحْصَى كِتَابُهُ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَدَدَ مَا فِي كِتَابِهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَدَدَ مَا أَحْصَى خَلْقُهُ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَلَى مَا فِي خَلْقِهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ مِلْءَ سَمَاوَاتِهِ وَأَرْضِهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَدَدَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ مِلْءَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَتُسَبِّحُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَتُكَبِّرُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ»

[Machine] "From the Prophet Muhammad, ﷺ , who said: Whoever says 'alhamdulillah' (praise be to Allah) as many times as the number of his creations, and 'alhamdulillah' fills what he has created, and 'alhamdulillah' is as many times as what is in the heavens and the earth, and 'alhamdulillah' fills what is in the heavens and the earth, and 'alhamdulillah' is as many as what His book has counted, and 'alhamdulillah' fills what His book has counted, and 'alhamdulillah' is as many times as everything, and 'alhamdulillah' fills everything, and 'subhanallah' (glory be to Allah) is like it. So, that is the greatest."

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ saw me while I was moving my lips, so he said, "What are you saying, O Abu Umamah?" I said, "I am remembering Allah." He said, "Shall I not tell you of something that is more abundant in remembrance of Allah than you? You say: 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) equal to the number of His creations, and 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) filling what He has created, and 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) equal to what is in the heavens and what is on the earth, and 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) equal to what His Book has enumerated, and 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) filling what His Book has enumerated, and 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) equal to everything, and 'Alhamdulillah' (Praise be to Allah) filling everything." Then he said, "Teach them to those who come after you."
