“The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, left her (Lady Juwairiah, wife of the Prophet, may Allah be pleased with her, Mother of Believers) room one morning after the dawn prayer while she was praying.

He returned after the sun had risen and found her still sitting in her place, whereupon he inquired’ ‘Have you remained like this since I left you?’ She replied that she had. Then the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said, ‘After I left you, I recited four phrases three times.

They are: Exalted is Allah with His praise as the number of His creation, as His pleasure as the weight of His Throne, as the ink of His Words."
