Glory be to You!


‘Abdullah ibn Mushabbib al-Qahtāni

Glory be to Allah as many as what He created in the heavens.

Glory be to Allah as many as what He created in the earth.

Glory be to Allah as many as the creation between them.

Glory be to Allah as many as what He creates.

Allah Almighty commands His servants to glorify Him a lot at the times of sunrise and sunset. He says:

{So glorified is Allah when you reach the evening and when you reach the morning.}

[Surat ar-Rūm: 17]

He also says:

{And glorify Him in the morning and in the evening.}

[Surat al-Ahzāb: 42]

Given the significance of glorification, Allah Almighty will inspire the dwellers of Paradise to glorify Him as naturally as breathing.

{Their call therein will be, “Glory be to You, O Allah,” and their greeting therein will be: “Peace.” And the last of their call will be: “Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds!”}

[Surat Yūnus:10]

Ibn Rajab (may Allah have mercy upon him) said:“Every deed comes to an end, except for the remembrance of Allah, which does not come to a halt. All deeds cease when the world ceases to exist, and nothing of it will remain in the Hereafter, except for the  remembrance of Allah. The believer lives,dies, and gets resurrected upon the remembrance of Allah.”

Glory be to the One Who is glorified by all creatures and all tongues.

Glory be to Him for the favors He bestows upon us.

Glory be to the One Who is glorified by those who knew that glorification of Him is one of the best means of protection.

Glory be to the One Who disgraces the sinners or forgives grave sins and minor ones if He so wills.

Glory be to the One from Whom we ask the forgiveness of a Mighty Lord 

and seek refuge from severe retribution.

May Allah make us among those who glorify Him and extend praise to Him, and among the believers in His names and attributes who believe in His Oneness and extol Him; indeed, He is All-Hearing, Near.

{So glorified is Allah when you reach the evening and when you reach the morning.And to Him is all praise throughout the heavens and the earth. And [glorified is He] at night and when you are at noon.}

[Surat ar-Rūm: 17-18]
