Imam Ahmad recorded from Ibn `Abbas that whenever the Messenger of Allah
would recite
[سَبِّحِ اسْمَ
رَبِّكَ الاّعْلَى ]
(Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High.) he would say,
«سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ
الْأَعْلَى»
(Glory to my Lord, the Most High.) Ibn Jarir recorded from Ibn Ishaq
Al-Hamdani that whenever Ibn `Abbas would recite
[سَبِّحِ اسْمَ
رَبِّكَ الاّعْلَى ]
(Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High.) he would say, "Glory to my
Lord, the Most High,'' and whenever he would recite
[لاَ أُقْسِمُ
بِيَوْمِ الْقِيَـمَةِ ]
(I swear by the Day of Resurrection.) (75:1) and then reach the end of it
[أَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ
بِقَـدِرٍ عَلَى أَن يُحْيِىَ الْمَوْتَى ]
(Is not He able to give life to the dead) (75:40) he would say, "Glory to
You, of course.'' Qatadah said,
[سَبِّحِ اسْمَ
رَبِّكَ الاّعْلَى ]
(Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High.) "It has been mentioned to us
that whenever the Prophet of Allah used to recite it he would say,
«سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ
الْأَعْلَى»
(Glory to my Lord, the Most High.)''
