When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) raised his back from Rukū 'in prayer, he would say: "Allah hears he who praises Him", i.e., Whoever praises Allah Almighty, Allah Almighty responds to him. It was said: He praises and rewards him. Then, he would praise Allah by saying: "O Allah, our Lord, to You is the praise as much as fills the heavens, as much as fills the earth, and as much as fills whatever You will thereafter." Praise that fills the heavens and the earth and what is between them and fills anything Allah wills.Benefits
The Hadīth demonstrates what a praying person is recommended to say upon raising his head from Rukū‘.
It is prescribed to straighten one's back and stand with tranquility after rising from Rukū‘, for a person cannot say this dhikr unless he straightens his back and stands with tranquility.
This dhikr is prescribed for all prayers, obligatory and supererogatory.
