Up and Down

[al-muslimah]

Salam Alaycoum

There was a wonderful saying that my father once told me about when Al Sahaba used to go up on high places they used to say "Allahu Akbar" and followed down to lower places they used to say "Subhan Allah" (such on mountins)..I couldn't find the hadeeth or something to prove it.. but i thought its nice to be like them and say the same thing. Now whenever I get in the car and my father drives on bridges or something like that I would say the same thing.

Did you know about this before?

May Allah bless you sister,your father and your entire family,here's the hadith,


Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: When we ascended (a height) we would proclaim: "Allahu Akbar (Allah is Greatest),'' and when we descended (from the height) we would proclaim: "Subhan Allah (Allah is free from imperfection).'''
[Al-Bukhari].

Ibn `Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Whenever the Prophet (PBUH) and his army ascended a height, they would proclaim: "Allahu Akbar (Allah is Greatest),'' and when they climbed down, they would proclaim: "Subhan Allah (Allah is free from imperfection).''
[Abu Dawud].

Commentary: While climbing up some height, superiority complex may creep into man's head. He should, therefore, pronounce Divine greatness saying that Allah is the Greatest of all, the Most High, and all creatures are low and humble and subordinate to Him. On climbing down we should say: "Subhan Allah (Allah is free from imperfection).
