From Ayesha RadhiAllaahu anha the Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam used to say a lot:
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ
Subhana Allaahi wa bihamdihi Astaghfirullaah wa Atoobu ilayhi
Far is Allaah from imperfection and Praise belongs to Him. I seek forgiveness from Allaah and I repent to Him.’
Ayesha said: I said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah! I see that you say a lot:
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ
Subhana Allaahi wa bihamdihi Astaghfirullaah wa Atoobu ilayhi
Far is Allaah from imperfection and Praise belongs to Him. I seek forgiveness from Allaah and I repent to Him?
The Messenger said:
‘My Lord informed me that I will see a sign in my Ummah. And when I see it I should say a lot:
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ
Far is Allaah from imperfection and Praise belongs to Him. I seek forgiveness from Allaah and I repent to Him.’ I have indeed seen it. When comes the Help of Allaah to you, and the conquest of Makkah, And you see that the people enter Allaah’s religion (Islaam) in crowds, so glorify the Praises of your Lord, and ask for His Forgiveness. Verily, He is the One Who accepts the repentance and forgives.’
[Collected by Muslim]
In the narration of both Bukhari & Muslim:
‘From Ayesha RadhiAllaahu anha that the Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam used to say a lot before he passed away. . .’
In a narration from Bukhari & Muslim:
Ayesha RadhiAllaahu anha said that the Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam used to say a lot in his Ruku and Sajood:
سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا وَبِحَمْدِكَ ، اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي
Far are You O our Lord from imperfection and all praise is for You, O Allaah forgive me’ and would explain the Qur’aan.’
[Bukhari & Muslim]
Imam Nawawi said:
‘the meaning of the statement: ‘and would explain the Qur’aan’ is that he would do that which the Qur’aan ordered in the saying of Allaah Ta’ala: <<so glorify the Praises of your Lord, and ask for His Forgiveness. Verily, He is the One Who accepts the repentance and forgives.’>>
[Sharh Saheeh Muslim]

عَلَامَةً فِي أُمَّتِي
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ
: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يُكْثِرُ مِنْ قَوْلِ : “ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ ، قَالَتْ : فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَرَاكَ تُكْثِرُ مِنْ قَوْلِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ ؟
فَقَالَ : “ خَبَّرَنِي رَبِّي ، أَنِّي سَأَرَى عَلَامَةً فِي أُمَّتِي ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُهَا ، أَكْثَرْتُ مِنْ قَوْلِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ ، فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهَا إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَالْفَتْحُ سورة النصر آية 1 ، فَتْحُ مَكَّةَ ، وَرَأَيْتَ النَّاسَ يَدْخُلُونَ فِي دِينِ اللَّهِ أَفْوَاجًا { 2 } فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَاسْتَغْفِرْهُ إِنَّهُ كَانَ تَوَّابًا { 3 } سورة النصر آية 2-3 “ .
عن عائشة قالت: كان رسول الله ﷺ يكثر أن يقول قبل موته : سبحان الله وبحمده، أستغفر الله، وأتوب إليه.
متفق عليه
في رواية للبخاري ومسلم : كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يُكثِر أن يقول في ركوعه وسجوده : سبحانك اللهم ربنا وبحمدك اللهم اغفر لي . يتأوّل القرآن .
ومعنى يتأوّل القرآن : أي يفعل ما أُمِرَ بِهِ في قول الله عز وجل : (فَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّكَ وَاسْتَغْفِرْهُ إِنَّهُ كَانَ تَوَّابًا) . قاله النووي .
