The Prophet ﷺ would say this when returning from a military expedition or from Hajj:

لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ، وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، آيِبُونَ، تَائِبُونَ، عَابِدُونَ، لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ، صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ، وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ، وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ

La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lah, lahul-mulku, walahul-hamdu, wahuwa 'ala kulli shay'in qadir, ayibun, ta'ibun, 'abidun, lirabbina hamidun, sadaqallahu wa'dah, wanasara 'abdah, wahazamal-ahzaba wahdah

There is no deity but Allah alone, without partner; His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. We return, repenting, worshipping, and praising our Lord. Allah has fulfilled His promise, given victory to His servant, and alone defeated the Confederates.
