And for you men and women, if, on journeys you stop and rest in a safe location, (there is required) in place of the whole ritual of worship (only) one prostration and the saying of the words, "subhan Allah dhi al-azama wa'l-ijlal wa'l-mawhiba wa'l-afdal" (Praise be to God, the Possessor of Greatness and Majesty, the Free Gift and the Graces)

Whoever is unable (to do this) will say, "subhan Allah" (Praise be to God). Thus is the duty sufficiently performed. He is the Satisfying, the Continuing, the Forgiving, the Merciful One.

After completing the prostration, you and the women are to sit at the temple of Unity (haykal al-tawhid) [Note 2] and say eighteen times, "subhan Allah dhi al-mulk wa'l- malakut" (Praise be to God, the Possessor of the kingdoms of this world and the next).

Thus God explains the ways of Reality and Guidance. They end, indeed, in one way which is the Straight Path (al-sirat al-mustaqim).

Give thanks to God for this great Grace.

Praise God for this free gift which encompassed the heavens and the earths.

Remember God for this mercy which preceded the worlds.
