Excellence of remembrance and glorification of Allah
قَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَنْ قَالَ: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ فِي يَوْمٍ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ حُطَّتْ خَطَايَاهُ وَلَوْ كَانَتْ مِثْلَ زَبَدِ الْبَحْرِ
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says: "Glorified is Allah and praised is He" one hundred times a day, will have his sins forgiven even if they are like the foam of the sea".
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever says: "None has the right to be worshiped but Allah alone, Who has no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He is Able to do all things" ten times, will have the reward for freeing four slaves from the Children of Isma'il".
وَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم: كَلِمَتَانِ خَفِيفَتَانِ عَلَى اللِّسَانِ، ثَقِيلَتَانِ فِي الْمِيزَانِ، حَبِيبَتَانِ إِلَى الرَّحْمَنِ: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Two words are light on the tongue, weigh heavily in the balance, and are loved by the Most Merciful: 'Glorified is Allah and praised is He, Glorified is Allah the Magnificent'."
وَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم: لَأَنْ أَقُولَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "For me to say: 'Glory is to Allah, and praise is to Allah, and there is none worthy of worship but Allah, and Allah is the Most Great' is dearer to me than all that the sun rises upon."
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Is anyone of you incapable of earning one thousand Hasanah (rewards) in a day?" Someone from his gathering asked: "How can anyone of us earn a thousand Hasanah" He said: "Glorify Allah a hundred times and a thousand Hasanah will be written for you, or a thousand sins will be wiped away".
وَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم: (يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى كَنْزٍ مِنْ كُنُوزِ الْجَنَّةِ)؟ فَقُلْتُ: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: (قُلْ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ)
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "O Abdullah bin Qais, should I not point you to one of the treasures of Paradise?" I said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah". So he told me to say: "There is no power and no might except by Allah".
وَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم: أَحَبُّ الْكَلَامِ إِلَى اللَّهِ أَرْبَعٌ: سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، لَا يَضُرُّكَ بِأَيِّهِنَّ بَدَأْتَ
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "The most beloved words to Allah are four: Glorified is Allah, praise is for Allah, there is none worthy of worship but Allah, and Allah is the Most Great. It does not matter which of them you begin with."
A desert Arab came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said: "Teach me a word that I can say". The Prophet told him to say: "There is none worthy of worship but Allah, Who has no partner, Allah is the Great, the Most Great, and praise is to Allah in abundance, glory is to Allah, Lord of the worlds. There is no power and no might but by Allah the Mighty, the Wise". He said: "That is for my Lord, but what about me?" The Prophet (ﷺ) told him to say: "O Allah forgive me, and have mercy on me and guide me, and provide for me".
The good deeds which endure are: "Glorified is Allah, The praise is for Allah, There is none worthy of worship but Allah, Allah is the Most Great and There is no power and no might except by Allah".
Ahmad (Hadith no. 513).
How the Prophet made Tasbeeh
كَيْفَ كَانَ النَّبيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُسَبِّحُ؟
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: (رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعْقِدُ التَّسْبِيحَ) وَفِي زِيَادَةٍ: (بِيَمِينِهِ)
Abdullah Bin Amru said: "I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) counting the glorification of his Lord on his right hand".
When evening descends, bring your children indoors for the devils scatter out at this hour. Then after the passing of an hour (the first hour) of the night, (you may) let them (the children) go. Close your doors while mentioning the Name of Allah, for the devil may not open a closed door. Fasten your waterskins mentioning the Name of Allah. Cover your eating vessels mentioning the Name of Allah even if you just put something over it, and extinguish your lamps.
Al-Bukhari, Muslim 3/1595.
