Fortress of the Muslim
Hisn al-Muslim 237
Arabic hadith text
خير الدعاء دعاء يوم عرفة ، وخيرُ ما قلت أنا والنبيُّون من قبلي : لا إله إلا الله وحدهُ لا شريك لهُ ، لهُ الملكُ ولهُ الحمدُ وهو على كل شيء قدير.
Translation
The best supplication is the supplication of the Day of ʿArafah, and the best of what I and the Prophets before me have said is: “There is no deity but Allah alone, without partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things.”
Translation notes
لا إله إلا الله وحده
The witness expands the declaration with “none has the right to be worshipped,” while the Arabic source is more concise.
Should this interpretive gloss be noted for editorial review?
