Full Hadith
Ibn Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported that whenever Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) mounted his camel while setting out on a journey, he glorified Allah (uttered Allah-o-Akbar) thrice, and then said:Hallowed is He Who subdued for us this (ride) and we were not ourselves powerful enough to use It as a ride, and we are going to return to our Lord. O Allah, we seek virtue and piety from Thee in this journey of ours and the act which pleaseth Thee. O Allah, lighten this journey of ours, and make its distance easy for us. O Allah, Thou art (our) companion during the journey, and guardian of (our) family. O Allah, I seek refuge with Thee from hardships of the journey, gloominess of the sights, and finding of evil changes in property and family on return. And he (the Holy Prophet) uttered (these words), and made this addition to them: We are returning, repentant, worshipping our Lord. and praising Him.

Allaahu akbar, [3 Times] Laa ilaaha illallaahu wahdahoo laa shareeka lahoo lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu wa huwa 'alaa kulli shay`in qadeer, aayiboona taa`iboona 'aabidoona saajidoona lirabbinaa haamidoon, saqallaahu wa'dahoo wa nasara 'abdahoo wa hazamal ahzaaba wahdah. [1 Time]
Allah is (the) Greatest [3 Times] None has the right to be worshipped but Allah; He is One and has no partner. All the kingdom is for Him, and all the praises are for Him, and He is Omnipotent. We are returning with repentance, worshipping, prostrating, and praising our Lord. Allah has kept up His promise and made His slave victorious, and He Alone defeated all the clans of (non believers). [1 Time]
Bukhari 1797
