The dhikr prescribed upon entering the Sacred Mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, the discussion continues regarding some questions concerning the 'Umrah that some Muslims may have performed in this great month, seeking its reward and virtue. In this question, he asks: What is the established dhikr prescribed for the Muslim when he enters the Sacred Mosque?

The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.

The presenter:
O Allah, send prayers and peace upon him.

The Shaykh:
And upon his family and his Companions. As for what follows: The dhikr prescribed upon entering the Sacred Mosque is like the dhikr prescribed in the other mosques, in that one enters with his right foot and says, "In the name of Allah, I seek refuge," saying, "In the name of Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon the Messenger of Allah," and then enters with the intention of worship in this great mosque, with the intention of prayer, tawaf, reciting the Qur'an, and dhikr. Yes.
