Ubayy ibn Ka’b said that when the Messenger of God gave the salutation after witr, he said: Glory be to You, Sovereign, Most Holy. Abu Dawud and al-Nasa’i transmitted it. Al-Nasa’i adds that he said this three times, prolonging it on the last. In another report from al-Nasa’i, Abd al-Rahman ibn Abza reported from his father that the Prophet would say, Glory be to the Sovereign, Most Holy, three times after the salutation, raising his voice on the third.
