that the remembrance of Allāh and sending prayers upon His Messenger is emphasized when intending to rise from a gathering. The sunnah is fulfilled in the remembrance and prayers with any wording, but the most complete in remembrance is "Glory be to You, O Allāh, and with Your praise. I testify that there is no deity but You. I seek Your forgiveness and repent to You," and in sending prayers upon the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) as in the end of the tashahhud. I said: The remembrance referred to is known as the expiation of the gathering, and there are several ḥadīths about it. I will mention one of them, which is the most complete: It is the expiation of the gathering: "Whoever says: 'Glory be to Allāh and with His praise, Glory be to You, O Allāh, and with Your praise. I testify that there is no deity but You. I seek Your forgiveness and repent to You,' and says it in a gathering of remembrance, it will be like a seal set upon it. And whoever says it in a gathering of idle talk, it will be an expiation for him."

- "Whoever says: 'Glory be to Allāh and with His praise, Glory be to You, O Allāh, and with Your praise. I testify that there is no deity but You. I seek Your forgiveness and repent to You,' and says it in a gathering of remembrance, it will be like a seal set upon it. And whoever says it in a gathering of idle talk, it will be an expiation for him." It was narrated by al-Ṭabarānī (1/79/2) and al-Ḥākim (1/537) through the route of Nāfiʿ ibn Jubayr ibn Muṭʿim from his father, as a marfūʿ ḥadīth. And he said: "Authentic according to the conditions of Muslim." Al-Dhahabī agreed with him, and it is as they said. Al-Mundhirī attributed it (2/236) to al-Nasāʾī and al-Ṭabarānī, saying: "Their narrators are the narrators of the authentic [collections]." Al-Haythamī said (10/142 and 423): "It was narrated by al-Ṭabarānī, and its narrators are the narrators of the authentic [collections]."
