Fortress of the Muslim
Hisn al-Muslim 196
Arabic hadith text
سُبْحـانَكَ اللّهُـمَّ وَبِحَمدِك، أَشْهَـدُ أَنْ لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتوبُ إِلَـيْك
Translation
Glory be to You, O Allah, and praise be to You. I bear witness that there is no deity but You. I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance.
Translation notes
أَشْهَـدُ أَنْ لا إِلهَ إِلاّ أَنْتَ
The witness adds “worthy of worship,” an interpretive expansion absent from this Arabic wording.
Should the witness expansion be addressed in an editorial note?
