6409. Narrated Abū Mūsā Al-Ash’arī: The Prophet ﷺ started ascending a high place or hill. A man (amongst his companions) ascended it and shouted in a loud voice, “Lā ilāha illallāhu wa-Allāhu Akbar (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh; and Allāh is the Most Great).” (At that time) Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ was riding his mule. Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ said, “You are not calling upon a deaf or an absent one.” And added, “O Abū Mūsā (or, O ‘Abdullāh)! Shall I tell you a sentence from the treasures of Paradise?” I said, “Yes.” He said, “Lā ḥaula wa lā quwwata illā billāh.”
