Remembrance 1 from Chapter 44

At-taḥiyyātu li-llāh, wa-ṣ-ṣalawātu wa-ṭ-ṭayyibāt, as-salāmu ‘alayka ayyuha-n-Nabiyyu wa rahmatu-llāhi wa barakātuh, as-salāmu ‘alaynā wa ‘alā ‘ibādi-llāhi-ṣ-ṣāliḥīn, ashhadu an lā ilāha illa-llāh, wa ashhadu anna Muḥammadan ‘abduhu wa Rasūluh.

First is the report of Ibn Mas‘ūd that the Messenger of Allah said: “Greetings (taḥiyyāt) belong to Allah, as do prayers (ṣalawāt) and good things (ṭayyibāt). Peace be upon you, O Prophet, and the mercy and blessings of Allah. Peace be upon us and upon the righteous servants of Allah. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muḥammad is His slave and Messenger.” ^[1].Al-Bukhārī and Muslim reported this in their Ṣaḥīḥs.
