OD-217 Hisn al-Muslim 217 Recited once
Instruction
يُكَبِّرُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَرَفٍ ثَلاَثَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ:

Ibn ʿUmar reported that the Messenger of Allah on return from a battle or from performing the pilgrimage would say at every high point: Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest. and then he would say:

لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ، وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، آيِبُونَ، تَائِبُونَ، عَابِدُونَ، لِرَبِّنا حَامِدُونَ، صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ، وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ، وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزابَ وَحْدَهُ
Transliteration

Lā ilāha illā llāhu waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahu l-mulku, walahu l-ḥamdu, wahuwa ʿalā kulli shayʾin qadīrun, āyibūna, tāʾibūna, ʿābidūna, li-rabbin ḥāmidūna, ṣadaqa llāhu waʿdahu, wa naṣara ʿabdahu, wa hazama l-ʾaḥzba waḥdah

Translation

None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner. To Him belongs all sovereignty and praise, and He is over all things omnipotent. We return, repent, worship and praise our Lord. Allah fulfilled His promise, aided His Servant, and single-handedly defeated the allies.
