Jabir (RA) sketches the trip of prophet Muhammad
(PBUH) to the mounts of Safa and Marwah
as follows:
“…He first mounted As-Safaa until he saw the
House [Al-Masjid Al-Ḥaraam]. Facing the Qiblah, he started his Du‘aa’ by
saying: ‘Laa illaah illa Allah, Allahu Akbar,’ then he said: ‘Laa ilaaha illa
Allah wahdahu laa shareeka lahu, lahul-mulk wa lahul-hamd, wa huwa ‘ala kulli
shay’in qadeer, laa ilaaha illaa Allah wahdahu, anjaza wa‘dahu, wa nasara
‘abdahu, wa hazam al-ahzaba wahdah.’”[Muslim]
(Translation: There is no god but Allah, He is
One and has no partner. His is the sovereignty, to Him praise is due, and He is
Powerful over everything. There is no God but Allah alone, He fulfilled His
promise, made victorious His servant and defeated the confederates alone.)
Jaabir (RA) further added:
“… The Prophet (PBUH) said these words three
times, making supplications in between. He then descended and walked towards
[Mount] Marwah. When his feet touched the bottom of the valley, he walked with
a fast pace; and when he began to ascend, he returned to his normal walking
pace until he reached [Mount] Marwah. There he did as he had done at As-Safa….”
[Muslim]
