عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنهما: أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ عِنْدَ الْكَرْبِ: «لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ الْعَظِيمُ الْحَلِيمُ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَرَبُّ الْأَرْضِ وَرَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ».

Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported: The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say in times of distress: "Lā ilāha illa-llāhu-l-‘aẓīmu-l-ḥalīm, lā ilāha illa-llāhu rabbu-l-‘arshi-l-‘aẓīm, lā ilāha illa-llāhu rabbu-s-samāwāti wa rabbu-l-arḍi wa rabbu-l-‘arshi-l-karīm."
