Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 592a
This Hadith from A’isha describes what the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) would say after pronouncing salutation in prayer. He would not remain seated longer than the time it took to say: “O Allah, You are Peace, and peace comes from You; Blessed are You, Possessor of Glory and Honour.” In another wording, the phrase is “O Possessor of Glory and Honour.” This Hadith is closely linked to the well-known Allahumma Antas Salam dua after salah. It teaches that the moment after prayer can be filled with a short and meaningful remembrance. The focus is not on long speech here, but on praising Allah as Peace and recognizing that peace comes from Him.
What we learn from this hadith
- The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said the dua of peace after salam.
- The wording praises Allah as the source of peace.
- The Hadith shows a short remembrance after prayer.
- Allah is praised as Possessor of Glory and Honour.
