BackSalat-e-Fatima-Zahra

It is narrated that Lady Fatimah al-Zahra, peace be upon her, used to offer a two-unit prayer taught by Archangel Gabriel. In the first unit, she used to recite Surah al-Fatihah and repeat Surah al-Qadr one hundred times. In the second unit, she used to recite Surah al-Fatihah and Surah al-Tawheed. After Taslim (i.e. the concluding part of a prayer), she would say the following :

سُبْحَانَ ذِي ٱلْعِزِّ ٱلشَّامِخِ ٱلْمُنِيفِ
Glory be to the Lord of Honor and Sublime Authority.
سُبْحَانَ ذِي ٱلْجَلاَلِ ٱلْبَاذِخِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
Glory be to the Lord of Majesty and Exalted Greatness.
سُبْحَانَ ذِي ٱلْمُلْكِ ٱلْفَاخِرِ ٱلْقَدِيـمِ
Glory be to the Lord of eternal, splendid sovereignty.
سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَبِسَ ٱلْبَهْجَةَ وَٱلْجَمَالَ
Glory be to Him Who dressed Himself with splendor and beauty.
سُبْحَانَ مَنْ تَرَدَّىٰ بِٱلنُّورِ وَٱلْوَقَارِ
Glory be to Him Who is clad in light and dignity.
سُبحَانَ مَنْ يَرَىٰ اثَرَ ٱلَّنمْلِ فِي ٱلصَّفَا
Glory be to Him Who makes out the footprints of the ant on the stone.
سُبحَانَ مَنْ يَرَىٰ وَقْعَ ٱلطَّيْرِ فِِي ٱلْهَوَاءِ
Glory be to Him Who knows (the exact time and place of) the bird dipping down through the air.
سُبْحَانَ مَنْ هُوَ هٰكَذَا لاَ هٰكَذَا غَيْرُهُ
Glory be to Him Who is like this and no one (other than Him) is like this.
