Fortress of the Muslim

Hisn al-Muslim 87

Arabic hadith text

رَضيـتُ بِاللهِ رَبَّـاً وَبِالإسْلامِ ديـناً وَبِمُحَـمَّدٍ نَبِيّـاً . (ثلاث مرات)

Translation

I am content with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion, and with Muhammad as my Prophet. (Three times.)

Translation notes
  • وَبِمُحَـمَّدٍ نَبِيّـاً .

    The English witness adds a blessing formula after Muhammad that is absent from the assigned Arabic text.

    Does this blessing belong to a separate editorial tradition rather than the Arabic wording of this occurrence?

  • (ثلاث مرات)

    The Arabic says “three times”; the witness adds that the recitation is in Arabic.

    Is “in Arabic” sourced from material outside this Arabic occurrence?
