Supplication said when at Mount Safa & Mount Marwah

Jabir said when describing the Prophet's (saw) pilgrimage: and when he approached mount Safa he recited: (ุฅูู†ู‘ูŽ ุงู„ุตู‘ูŽููŽุง ูˆุงู„ู…ูŽุฑู’ูˆูŽุฉูŽ ู…ูู†ู’ ุดูŽุนุงุฆุฑู ุงู„ู„ู‡โ€ฆ) ุฃูŽุจู’ุฏูŽุฃู ุจูู…ูŽุง ุจูŽุฏูŽุฃูŽ ุงู„ู„ู‡ู ุจูู‡ู ...so he started with Safa and climed it until he could see the Kabah, he then faced it and said: ุงู„ู„ู‡ู ุฃูƒู’ุจูŽุฑูุŒ ุงู„ู„ู‡ู ุฃูŽูƒู’ุจูŽุฑูุŒ ุงู„ู„ู‡ู ุฃูŽูƒู’ุจูŽุฑู ...and then he would say the following three times making a supplication (one should make a personal supplication) after each time: ู„ูŽุง ุฅูู„ู‡ูŽ ุฅูู„ู‘ูŽุง ุงู„ู„ู‡ู ูˆูŽุญู’ุฏูŽู‡ู ู„ูŽุง ุดูŽุฑููŠูƒูŽ ู„ูŽู‡ูุŒ ู„ูŽู‡ู ุงู„ู…ูู„ู’ูƒู ูˆูŽู„ูŽู‡ู ุงู„ุญูŽู…ู’ุฏู ูˆู‡ููˆูŽ ุนูŽู„ู‰ ูƒูู„ู‘ู ุดูŽูŠุกู ู‚ูŽุฏูŠุฑูŒุŒ ู„ูŽุง ุฅูู„ูŽู‡ูŽ ุฅูู„ู‘ูŽุง ุงู„ู„ู‡ู ูˆูŽุญู’ุฏูŽู‡ู ุฃูŽู†ู’ุฌูŽุฒูŽ ูˆูŽุนู’ุฏูŽู‡ูุŒ ูˆูŽู†ูŽุตูŽุฑูŽ ุนูŽุจู’ุฏูŽู‡ู ูˆูŽู‡ูŽุฒูŽู…ูŽ ุงู„ุฃูŽุญู’ุฒูŽุงุจูŽ ูˆูŽุญู’ุฏูŽู‡ู ...he (saw) would repeat this action at Marwah.

Indeed Safa and Marwah are from the places of worship of Allah... Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest. I begin with what Allah began with. Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest. None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner.To Him belongs all sovereignty and praise and He is over all things amnipotent. None has the right to be worshipped except Allah alone. He fulfilled His promise, aided His Servant and single-handedly defeated the allies.

The importance of the mosque in Islam

The mosque is not just a place of prayer. It is a center of community life, learning and spirituality. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said that prayer in congregation at the mosque is equivalent to 27 times individual prayer.
