عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «كَلِمَتَانِ خَفِيفَتَانِ عَلَى اللِّسَانِ، ثَقِيلَتَانِ فِي الْمِيزَانِ، حَبِيبَتَانِ إِلَى الرَّحْمَنِ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ الْعَظِيمِ، سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ».

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Two words are light on the tongue, heavy on the scale, and beloved to the Most Merciful: 'Subḥānallāhi-l-‘aẓīm' and 'Subḥānallāhi wa biḥamdih.'"
