Sunan Ibn Majah, 927

Rapporté par Abu Dharr : On a dit au Prophète (ﷺ), et peut-être que (l’un des rapporteurs) Sufyan a dit : J’ai dit : “Ô Messager d’Allah ! Ceux qui ont des biens et des richesses nous dépassent en récompense. Ils disent la même chose que nous, mais ils dépensent alors que nous ne dépensons pas.” Il m’a dit : “Veux-tu que je t’apprenne quelque chose qui, si tu le fais, te permettra de rattraper ceux qui t’ont devancé et de dépasser ceux qui viendront après toi ? Après chaque prière, loue Allah (‘Al-Hamdu Lillah’), glorifie-Le (‘Subhan Allah’) et exalte-Le (‘Allahu Akbar’) trente-trois, trente-trois et trente-quatre fois.” Sufyan a dit : “Je ne sais pas lequel devait être dit trente-quatre fois.”

It was narrated that Abu Dharr said:“It was said to the Prophet (ﷺ) and perhaps (one of the narrators) Sufyan said: I said: O Messenger of Allah! Those who have property and wealth have surpassed us in reward. They say the same as we do, and they spend but we do not spend.’ He said to me: ‘Shall I not tell you something which, if you do it, you will catch up with those who have surpassed you and you will excel over those who come after you? Praise Allah (by saying Al- Hamdu Lillah) after every prayer, and glorify Him (by saying Subhan- Allah) and extol Him (by saying Allahu Akbar), thirty-three, thirty- three, and thirty-four times.’” Sufyan said: “I do not know which of them was to be recited thirty-four times.”
