799. Narrated Rifā'a bin Rāfi' Az-Zuraqī: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: One day we were offering Ṣalāt (prayer) behind the Prophet ﷺ. When he raised his head from bowing, he said, "Sami' Allāhu liman ḥamida." A man behind him said, "Rabbanā walakal ḥamd, ḥamdan kathīran ta'yiban mubārakan fīhi (O our Lord! All the praises and thanks are for You, many good and blessed praises). “When the Prophet ﷺ completed the Ṣalāt, he asked, “Who has said these words?” The man replied, “I.” The Prophet ﷺ said, “I saw over thirty angels competing to write it first.”
