Two phrases light on the tongue

كَلِمَتَانِ خَفِيفَتَانِ عَلَى اللِّسَانِ، ثَقِيلَتَانِ فِي الْمِيزَانِ، حَبِيبَتَانِ إِلَى الرَّحْمَنِ: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ

Kalimatani khafifatani 'ala-l-lisan, thaqilatani fi-l-mizan, habibatani ila-r-Rahman: SubhanAllahi wa bi-hamdih, SubhanAllahi-l-'Azim.

"Two phrases light on the tongue, heavy on the scale, beloved to the Most Merciful: SubhanAllahi wa bi-hamdih, SubhanAllahi-l-'Azim."

Narrated by Abu Hurayrah. Sahih al-Bukhari 6406, Sahih Muslim 2694

A short reflection

Twelve syllables. Repeat them while you walk, while you queue, while you wait. The scales are being filled.
