Abu Hurairah (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that the Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “Allah

of Resurrection). One of them will be a person who remembers Allah and
his eyes are then flooded with tears.” (Reported by Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadeeth 486)
The Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Whosoever

The Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Shall
I not tell you about the best of your deeds, the most pure (i.e.,
righteous and sincere) of them to your Creator, that which will entitle
you to the highest ranks, which is better for you than donating gold and
silver for the sake of Allah, which is better than fighting your
enemies in Jihaad where you kill them or they kill you (i.e., you become
martyrs)?” The people replied: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” So he said:
“The mention of Allah.” (Reported by Tirmidhi)
Abu Hurairah (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “Whoever
says: ‘La ilaha illa Allah wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahu-l-mulk wa
lahu-l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shai’in qadir.’”(‘There is no God but
Allah, the only true God, who has no partner. To Him belongs the kingdom
(of the universe) and to Him all praises are due, and He has the power
to do everything.’) one hundred times will get the same reward as given
for manumitting ten slaves; and one hundred good deeds will be written
in his accounts, and one hundred sins will be deducted from his
accounts, and it (his saying) will be a shield for him from Satan on
that day till night, and nobody will be able to do a better deed except
the one who does more than he.” (Reported by Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadeeth 412 and 4, Hadeeth 514)
Abu Hurairah (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “Whoever
says, ‘subhan Allahi wa bihamdihi’, (All glory and praises are for

they were as much as the foam of the sea.” (Reported by Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadeeth 414)
Abu Hurairah (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Whoever
says at morning and evening time ‘subhana Allahi, wa bihamdihi.’ (All
glory and praises are for Allah) one hundred times a day, none shall
come on the day of resurrection with anything better except someone who
has said the same or even more.” (Reported by Muslim, Hadeeth 6509)
Abu Hurairah (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “If
anyone extols Allah (says: “Subhan Allah “) after every prayer
thirty-three times, and praises Allah (says: “Alhamdu lillah”)
thirty-three times; and declares His Greatness (says: ‘Allah u Akbar”)
thirty-three, times, ninety-nine times in all, and say to complete a
hundred: ‘There is no god but Allah, having no partner with Him, to Him
belongs sovereignty and to Him to praise due, and He is Potent over
everything’ (says: ‘La ilaha illa Allah wahdahu la sharika lahu,
lahu-l-mulk wa lahu-l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shai’in qadir.’); his sins
will be forgiven even if these are as abundant as the foam of the sea.”
(Reported by Muslim, Hadeeth 1243)
Abu Malik Al Ashari (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “Cleanliness
is half of faith and Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah) fills the
scale. Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah) and Alhamdulillah (Praise be to
Allah) fill up what is between the heavens and the earth. Prayer is a
light, and charity is proof (of one’s faith). Endurance is a brightness
and the Qur’an is a proof on your behalf or against you. All men go out
early in the morning and sell themselves, thereby setting themselves
free or destroying themselves.” (Reported by Muslim, Hadeeth 432)
‘Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “Every
one of the children of Adam has been created with three hundred and
sixty joints. He who declares the Glory of Allah, praises Allah,
declares Allah to be One, glorifies Allah, seeks forgiveness from Allah,
removes stone, or thorn, or bone from people’s path and enjoins what is
good and forbids evil, to the number of those three hundred and sixty,
will walk that day having removed himself from Hell.” (Reported by Muslim, Hadeeth 2199)
Abu Dharr (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “In
the morning charity is due from every bone in the body of every one of
you. Every utterance of Allah’s glorification is an act of charity.
Every utterance of praise of Him is an act of charity; every utterance
of profession of His Oneness is an act of charity; every utterance of
profession of His Greatness is an act of charity; enjoining good is an
act of charity; forbidding what is disreputable is an act of charity;
and two rak’ahs which one prays in the forenoon will suffice.” (Reported by Muslim, Hadeeth 1557)
Abu Hurairah (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “There
are two expressions which are very easy for the tongue to say, but they
are very heavy in the balance and are very dear to the Beneficent
(Allah), and they are, ‘Subhan Allah Al-’adhim and ‘Subhan Allah wa
bihamdihi’. (How perfect Allah is and I praise Him.).” (Reported by Bukhari and Muslim)
Samurah Bin Jundab (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “The
most beloved words to Allah are the following four phrases, Subhan
Allah, Alhamdu lillah, La_ ila ha illa Allah, Allahu Akbar. (Glory be to
Allah, All Praises be to Allah. There is no deity but Allah, Allah is
the greatest.)... It does not matter which of them you start with.” (Reported by Muslim, Hadeeth 5329)
Abu
Musa Al Ashari (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that the Prophet
(sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) started ascending a high place or hill. A
man (amongst his companions) ascended it and shouted in a loud voice,
“La ilaha illa Allah wa Allahu Akbar.” (At that time) Allah’s Messenger
was riding his mule. Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam)
said, “You are not calling upon a deaf or
an absent one,” and added, “O Abu Musa (or, O ‘Abdullah)! Shall I tell
you a sentence from the treasure of Paradise?” I said, “Yes.” He said,
“La haula wala quwwata illa billah.” (There is neither power nor
strength indeed except in Allah.).” (Reported by Bukhari, Vol. 8, Hadeeth 418 and Muslim)
Sa’d Bin Abu Waqqas (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, “Is
one amongst you powerless to get one thousand virtues every day?”
Amongst those who had been sitting there, one asked: “How one amongst us
can get one thousand virtues every day?” He said: “Say, ‘subhan Allah’
(Hallowed be Allah) one hundred times for (by reciting them) one
thousand virtues are recorded (to your credit) and one thousand vices
are blotted out.” (Reported by Muslim, Hadeeth 6517)
Abu
Hurairah (radhyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that “Abu Dharr said to the
Prophet of Allah, ‘The wealthy people have all the rewards; they pray as
we pray; they fast as we fast; and they have surplus wealth which they
give in charity; but we have no wealth which we may give in charity.’
Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: ‘Abu
Dharr, should I not teach you phrases by which you acquire the rank of
those who excel you? No one can acquire your rank except one who acts
like you.’ He said, Why not, Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam)? He (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: ‘Exalt
Allah (say: Allah is Most Great) after each prayer thirty-three times;
and praise Him (say: Praise be to Allah) thirty-three times; and glorify
Him (say: Glory be to Allah) thirty-three times; and end it by saying,
‘There is no god but Allah alone, He has no partner, to Him belongs the
Kingdom, to Him praise is due and He has power over everything.’ His
sins will be forgiven, even if they are like the foam of the sea.’” (Reported by Abu Daud, Hadeeth 1499)
Allah’s Messenger (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said, "Whoever
enters a market and says: 'Laa ilaaha ill Allah wahdahu laa shareeka
lah, lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu yuhyi wa yumeetu wa huwa laa yamoot, bi
yadihil khayr, wahuwa `alaa kulli shay'in qadeer' [There is no one
worthy of worship but Allah, He is alone without partner, to Him belongs
dominion and praise, He causes life and death and He is the Living and
does not die. In His Hand is all the good, and He is over all things
competent.] Allah will write for him a million good deeds; erase a
million of his bad deeds and raise him a million levels." (Reported by Tirmidhi, classed as Hasan by Sheikh Albani)
Seeking Allah’s forgiveness:
The Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “For
he who always seeks the forgiveness of Allah, Allah will relieve him
from all adversities, make a way out for him from all hardships and
provide him from means which he could never have expected.” (Reported by Nasaa’i)
