He said: 'Say: SubhanAllah, wal-hamdulilah, wa la illaha ill-Allah, wa Allahu Akbar, wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa Billahil-aliy al-azim (Glory be to Allah, praise be to Allah, there is none worthy of worship except Allah, Allah is Most Great, and there is no power and no strength except with Allah the Exalted and Magnificent ).'"

    إبراهيم السكسكي ليس بذلك القوي ويكتب حديثه

    فيه إبراهيم السكسكي وهو من رجال البخاري ولكن عيب عليه إخراج حديثه وضعفه النسائي وقال ابن القطان ضعفه قوم فلم يأتوا بحجة
