Sunan an-Nasai 1062 (Book 12, Hadith 34) #15670
Praising Allah and its Rewards

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) hearing a man praising Allah and the angels competing to write it down.

It was narrated that Rifa'ah bin Rafi said: "We were praying behind the Messenger of Allah one day and when he raised his head from bowing he said: 'Sami Allahu liman hamidah (Allah hears the one who praises Him)'. A man behind him said: 'Rabbana wa lakal-hamd, hamdan kathiran tayyiban mubarakan fih. (O our Lord, and to You be praise, much blessed and pure praise)' When the Messenger of Allah had finished, he said: "Who is the one who spoke just now?" The man said: 'I did, O Messenger of Allah'. The Messenger of Allah said: 'I saw thirty-some angels rushing to see which of them would write it down first'."
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي نُعَيْمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَحْيَى الزُّرَقِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، قَالَ كُنَّا يَوْمًا نُصَلِّي وَرَاءَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَلَمَّا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الرَّكْعَةِ قَالَ ‏"‏ سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ رَجُلٌ وَرَاءَهُ رَبَّنَا وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ ‏.‏ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنِ الْمُتَكَلِّمُ آنِفًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ بِضْعَةً وَثَلاَثِينَ مَلَكًا يَبْتَدِرُونَهَا أَيُّهُمْ يَكْتُبُهَا أَوَّلاً

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us of an incident that happened when the Prophet Muhammad was leading prayer. A man behind him praised Allah, saying “Rabbana wa lakal-hamd, hamdan kathiran tayyiban mubarakan fih” which translates to “O our Lord, and to You be praise, much blessed and pure praise”. When the Prophet finished his prayer he asked who said it and when the man admitted it was him, he said that he saw thirty-some angels rushing to see which of them would write it down first. This shows us how important praising Allah is as even angels are eager to record our praises for Him. It also teaches us that we will be rewarded for our good deeds as this man was rewarded with seeing these angels in action.
