The Subhanaka dua
-
Subhanaka
We say it standing, at the start of the prayer.
سُبْحَانَكَ اللّٰهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ، وَتَبَارَكَ اسْمُكَ، وَتَعَالَى جَدُّكَ، وَلَا إِلٰهَ غَيْرُكَ
Subhanaka Allahumma wa bihamdika, wa tabarakasmuka, wa ta'ala jadduka, wa la ilaha ghairuk.
Glory be to You, O Allah, and all praise. Blessed is Your name, high is Your majesty, and there is no god but You.
