عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَفْضَلُ الْكَلَامِ أَرْبَعٌ: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ " وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: " أَحَبُّ الْكَلَامِ إِلَى اللَّهِ أَرْبَعٌ: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا يَضُرُّكَ بِأَيِّهِنَّ بَدَأْتَ ". رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Translation

Samurah ibn Jundub reported that the Messenger of God (peace be upon him) said: ‘The best words are four: “Glory be to God,” “Praise be to God,” “There is no deity but God,” and “God is greatest.”’ Another version says: ‘The words most beloved to God are four: “Glory be to God,” “Praise be to God,” “There is no deity but God,” and “God is greatest.” It does not matter with which of them you begin.’ Muslim transmitted it. The Arabic source grades it sahih (al-Albani).
