Hadith on Dua: Gates of heaven opened for good supplication

Ibn Umar reported: We were praying with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and a man among the people said, “Allah is the Greatest of the Great. All abundant praise is due to Allah, glory be to Him, morning and evening.” The Prophet said after the prayer, “Who said these words?” A man said, “It was me, O Messenger of Allah.” The Prophet said, “I was amazed at how the gates of heaven were opened for it.

عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْقَوْمِ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيرًا وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَثِيرًا وَسُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ بُكْرَةً وَأَصِيلًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يعني بعد الصلاة مَنْ الْقَائِلُ كَلِمَةَ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْقَوْمِ أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ عَجِبْتُ لَهَا فُتِحَتْ لَهَا أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ
