Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: When the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم sat on his camel to go out on a journey, he said: Allah is Most Great three times. Then he said: Glory be to Him Who has made subservient to us, for we had not the strength for it, and to our Lord do we return. O Allah, we ask Thee in this journey of ours, uprightness, piety and such deeds as are pleasing to Thee. O Allah, make easy for us this journey of ours and make its length short for us. O Allah, Thou art the Companion in the journey, and the One Who looks after the family and property in our absence. When he returned, he said these words adding: Returning, repentant, serving and praising our Lord. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and his armies said: Allah is Most Great when they went up to high ground; and when armies said: Allah is most Great when they went up to high ground; and when they descended, they said: Glory be to Allah. So the prayer was patterned on that.
