وَعَن ربيعَة بن كَعْب الْأَسْلَمِيّ قَالَ: كُنْتُ أَبِيتُ عِنْدَ حُجْرَةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَكُنْتُ أَسْمَعُهُ إِذَا قَامَ من اللَّيْل يَقُول: «سُبْحَانَ رب الْعَالمين» الْهَوِي ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: «سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ» الْهَوِيِّ. رَوَاهُ النَّسَائِيُّ وَلِلتِّرْمِذِيِّ نَحْوُهُ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيح

Rabiah ibn Kab al-Aslami said: I used to spend the night near the chamber of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and when he got up during the night I would hear him say for a long time: Glory be to the Lord of all worlds. Then he would say for a long time: Glory be to God and praise be to Him. Al-Nasai transmitted it. Al-Tirmidhi transmitted something similar and said: This is a hasan sahih hadith.
