1. Whoever says:’La ilaha ‘illa Allaahu

wahdahu la shareeka lahu, lahul mulku wa
lahul hamdu wa huwa ala kulli shayin
qadeer’ One hundred times in one day, then it
is equivalent to him freeing ten slaves, a
hundred good deeds are written for him, a
hundred bad deeds are erased, it is a
protection for him against shaytaan during
that day until the evening, and no one comes
with a better deed than him except for the
man who does more actions than him.

2.Whoever enters the marketplace and says:

‘There is none worthy of worship except Allah
who has no partners, for Him is the
Dominion, and for Him is all Praise, He
brings life and He causes death, and He is
Alive and does not die, in His Hand is all
good, and He is able to do all things,’ [La ilaha
ill-Allah, Wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul-
Mulk, wa lahul-Hamd, yuhyiyy wa yumit, wa
Huwa Hayyun la yamut, bi Yadihil-Khayr wa
Huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in Qadir] then Allah will
write one million good deeds for him, and
will wipe away one million of his bad deeds,
and will raise him one million levels and will
build a home for him in Paradise.” [‘Sahih al-
Jami’ #6231]

3. “Whoever reads [Surah Ikhlaas] until he

finishes it ten times, then Allaah builds a
Palace for him in Paradise as well as
additional benefits. ‘Umar said: ‘Then we will
have a lot of Palaces, O Messenger of Allaah!’
The Prophet — salallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam —
said: Allaah has more and what is better.”
[Silsilah Ahadeeth as-Saheehah by Shaykh al-
Albaani №589]

4. “Whoever says: ‘Glorified is Allah, the Most

Great, and praised is He’ [Subhan Allah
al-’Adhim wa bi-Hamdih] will have a date
palm planted for him in Paradise.”[‘Sahih al-
Jami’ #5531]

5. Whoever says Subhana allaahi wa

bihamdihi -One hundred times in one day,
then his mistakes / sins are cancelled out,
even if they are like the foam on the ocean.

6. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said: Is one of you so weak
that he cannot acquire a thousand good deeds
everyday? So a questioner from amongst
those sitting there asked him: How can
anyone of us gain a thousand rewards? He
said: say: — “Far is Allaah from imperfection
and all praise is for him” — “Subhana allaahi
wa bihamdihi” A hundred times, so a
thousand good deeds are written for him or a
thousand sins are cancelled for him.

7. It was narrated that Abu Umamah (may

Allah be pleased with him) said: The

Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be

upon him) said: “Whoever recites Ayat Al-

Kursi immediately after each prescribed

Prayer, there will be nothing standing
between

him and his entering Paradise except death.”

[an-Nasa’i and Ibn Hibban]

8. “Whoever ate something, then said: ‘Praise

be to Allah who has fed me this food and
provided it for me, without any strength or
power on my part’ [al-Hamdu lillah aladhi
at’amani hadha wa Razaqnih bi ghayr hawlin
minni wa la quwwa] is forgiven his past and
future sins.

9. And whoever wears a garment and says:

Praise be to Allah who has clothed me with
this garment and provided it for me without
any strength or power on my part [al-Hamdu
lillah aladhi kasani hadha at-thawb wa
Razaqnih bi ghayr hawlin minni wa la
quwwa] is forgiven his past and future sins.”
[‘Sahih al-Jami’ #6086]

10. “Whoever asks Allah for Paradise three

times [Allahumma inni as’aluk al-Jannah],
then Paradise will say: ‘O Allah! Enter him
into Paradise!’ And whoever seeks protection
with Allah from the Fire three times
[Allahumma najjini min an-Nar], the Fire will
say: ‘O Allah! Protect him from the Fire!’”
[Reported by at-Tirmidhi, and it is authentic]

9. ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud said: ‘Whoever reads

‘al-Mulk’ (chapter 67 of the Qur`an) every
night, Allah will protect him from the
torment of the grave. At the time of the
Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), we
used to call it al-mani’ah (that which
protects). In the Book of Allah, it is a chapter
which — whoever recites it every night — has
done very well.” [‘Sahih at-Targhib wat-
Tarhib’ #1475]

11. “Whoever asks Allah sincerely for

martyrdom [Allahumma inni as’aluk ash-
shahadah], Allah will cause him to reach the
status of the martyrs even if he dies in his
bed.” [‘Sahih al-Bukhari’ #1909]

12. “Whoever wishes that his provision be

increased and his age lengthened, let him
maintain the ties of kinship.” [Bukhari and
Muslim]

13. “Prayer in this Masjid of mine is superior

to a thousand prayers elsewhere, except for
Masjid Al-Haram, and prayer in Masjid Al-
Haram is superior to one hundred thousand
prayers elsewhere.” [Ahmad and ibn Majah]

14. “Prayer in congregation is superior to

praying individually twenty-seven times.”
[Bukhari and Muslim]

15. “He who prays Isha’ in Jama’ah

[congregation] is as if he has prayed for half
the night. As to him who (also) prays Fajr in
congregation, it is as if he has prayed all
night.” [Malik and the wording is that of
Muslim who also reported it]

16. “The most superior prayer of a person is

in his home, except for obligatory prayers.”
[Bukhari and Muslim]

17. “Whoever Ghassala (washes his head, and

it is said: has intercourse with his wife so that
it be a means to lower the gaze from the
Haram that day) on the day of Jumu’ah, then
comes in the earliest time and before the first
Khutbah, walks and doesn’t ride, stays near
the Imam, listens and does not speak — for
each step [he makes] he has actions of one
year, the reward of fasting and standing in
prayer in it.” [Ahl As-Sunan]

18. “Whoever prays Al-Ghadah (i.e. Fajr) in

congregation, then sits remembering Allah
until sunrise, then prays two units of
prayer(salatul ishraq/duha), has a complete
reward of Hajj and ‘Umrah [The Prophet
(Peace and blessings be upon him) repeated
‘complete’ three times for emphasizing].”
[Ath-Tirmidhi, classed as Sahih by al-Albani]

19. “Whoever goes to the mosque not desiring

except to learn or teach what is good has the
reward of a pilgrim who completed his Hajj.”
[At-Tabarani, classed as Sahih by Al-Albani]

20. “‘Umrah in Ramadan is equal to a Hajj

with me ( with Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi
wassalam).” [Bukhari]

21. “Whoever leaves his home in a state of

purity to perform obligatory prayer, his
reward is like that of a pilgrim (while) in the
state of ihram [i.e. he receives reward similar
to that of spending time in ihram during
Hajj].” [Abu Dawud, classed as Sahih by Al-
Albani]

22. “The Messenger of Allah (Peace and

blessings be upon him) used to seek
forgiveness for [the people of] the first row
three times, and for [the people of the]
second row once.” [An-Nasa’i and Ibn Majah].

23. “Allah and His Angels make Salawat upon

[the people of] the first row.” [Ahmad, with a
good Isnad]

24.”Whoever provides food for breaking of

the fast of a fasting person receives the
reward of the fasting person, without the
reward of the fasting person being reduced in
any way.” [At-Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah]

25. “Whoever seeks forgiveness for believing

men and believing women, Allah will write
for him a good deed for each believing man
ad believing woman.” [At-Tabarani, classed as
Hasan by Al-Albani]

26. “That I walk with my Muslim brother in

[fulfilling his] need is dearer to me than being
in I’tikaf in the Masjid for a month.” [Ibn Abi
Dunya, classed as Hasan by al-Albani]

27. Indeed the major supplication for

forgiveness is to say

Allaahumma anta rabbee, la ilaha illa anta,

Khalaqtanee, wa ana abduka,

wa ana ala ahdika wa wa’dika mastata’tu,

a’outhu bika min sharri ma

sanatu, aboo’u laka bini’matika alayya, wa

aboo’u bee thambee, faghfirlee

fa’innahu la yaghfiru ath-thunooba ‘illa ‘anta-

So if the worshipper says this when the

morning arrives, truly believing in it

and he dies, enters Paradise, and if he says

this when the evening arrives

truly believing in it enters Paradise.

28. — The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

There is not one from amongst the

worshippers, that if he says, in the

morning of everyday and the evening of every

night: -

Bismil-lahil-lathee la yadhurru ma’a ‘issmihi

shay’un fil ‘ardhi wa la fissama’i

wa huwa ‘as-samee’ul –‘aleem Three times

nothing harms him what so ever.

29. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

Who ever recites the last two Ayaat from

Soorah al-Baqarah at night, then

those two verses will be sufficient for him.

30.The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

Shall I not show you what will be better for

you than a servant? When you

lie down on your bed, say SubhanAllaah 33

times, say al-hamdulillaah 33

times and say Allaahu akbar 34 times.

31. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

Who ever wakes up at night, and says: -

La ilaha ‘illa Allaahu wahdahu la shareeka

lahu, lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu

wa huwa ala kulli shayin qadeer Subhana

allaahi, wal hamdu lillaahi, wa la

illaah ila Allaah, wa Allaahu akbar

La hawla wa la quwwata illa billaa

Then he says : O Allaah forgive me

(Allaahumma aghfirlee), or he

supplicates and his supplication is answered,

and if he makes Wudu and

prays then his prayer is accepted.

32. Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of

Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Anyone amongst you who sat in a place of
worship waiting for the prayer is in prayer
and his ablution is not broken, the angels
invoke blessing upon him (in these words): O
Allah! pardon him. O Allah! have mercy upon
him. [Sahih Muslim]

33.The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

Our Lord –Tabarak wa Ta’ala- descends every

night to the lowest heavens,

when there remains the last third part of the

night, and He says who is there

that supplicates to me so that I may answer

his supplication, who is there

that asks of me so that I may grant him what

he asks for, who is there that

seeks my forgiveness so that I may forgive

him.

34. It is narrated from Abu Hurairah that the

Prophet(pbuh) said: “Whosoever says at
nightfall, A’udhu bi kalimati-Llahit-tammati
min sharri ma khalaq, no harm shall affect
him.” [Saheeh Muslim]

35.The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

O my son if you enter your home then say

Salaam it will be a blessing for

you and your family.

36. hose who sleep in a state of purity. Imam

Ibn Hibban narrated from Abdullah Ibn
‘Umar -may Allah be pleased with him- , who
said that The messenger of Allah -peace and
prayer of Allah be upon him- said, “Whoever
sleeps while he’s in purity state(wudu), the angel
will accompany him in his garment. He will not
wake up until the angel pray, ‘O Allah, forgive
your slave so and so since he is sleeping in purity
state.’” (Classed sahih by Sheikh Al Albani in
his work “Shahih At Targhib wat Tarhib”, I/37)

37. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

If you hear the Muaddthin, then repeat what

he says, then send prayers upon

me, since indeed the one who sends prayers

upon me once, Allaah sends ten

prayers upon him. Then ask Allaah for me to

be an intercessor since it is a

high station in Paradise, which is not befitting

except for a servant from the

servants of Allaah and I hope that I am the

one, so whoever asks

intercession for me then intercession will

take place for him.

38. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

Who ever says, when he hears the call to

prayer:

Allaahumma rabba hathihi ‘addawatittamati,

was-salatil qa’imati, ‘ati

Muhammadan ál-waseelata wal faaheelata,

wab’ath-hu maqqaman

mahmoodan ‘allathee wa’adtahu -then my

intercession occurs for him on the day of
Judgment.

39. Those who take Sahur (eating and

drinking before dawn for someone intend to
fast at that day, -transl.). Imam Ibn Hibban
and Imam Ath Thabrani both narrated from
Abdullah Ibn Umar -may Allah be pleased
with him-, that the Messenger of Allah said,
“Indeed, Allah and His angels pray for those who
take sahur.” (classed sahih by Al Albani in his
work ‘Shahih At Targhiib wat Tarhiib’ I/519)

40. Those who visit the sick. Imam Ahmad

narrated from ‘Ali Ibn Abi Thalib -may Allah
be pleased with him-, that the Messenger of
Allah -peace and prayer of Allah be upon him
said, “A believer doesn’t visit his sick brother,
but Allah will send to him 70.000 angels who’
ll pray for him anytime during the day, until
afternoon, and anytime during the night,
until dawn.” (Al Musnad no. 754, Sheikh
Ahmad Shakir commented, “The status is
sahih.”)

41. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

Two things which are not rejected, or rarely

rejected: A supplication made at

the time of the call to prayer, and at the time

when the battle becomes

Severe.

42. Men who pray in the front rows in

congregational prayer. Imam Abu Dawud
(and Ibn Khuzaima) narrated from Barra’ Ibn
‘Azib -may Allah be pleased with him-, that
the Messenger of Allah said, “Indeed, Allah
and His angels pray for those who fill the front
rows.” (Classed sahih by Al Albani in his work
“Shahih Sunan Abi Dawud” I/130)

43. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

Whoever says SubhanAllaah at the end of

every prayer 33 times, says alhamdulillaah 33
times, and says Allaahu akbar 33 times, then
this adds up to

99, and if he says — La ilaha ‘illa Allaahu

wahdahu la shareeka lahu, lahul mulku wa
lahul hamdu wa huwa ala kulli shayin qadeer
-To complete a hundred, then his
mistakes/sins are forgiven even if they were
equivalent to the foam on the sea.

44. Hasbi-allahu la ilaha illa Huwa ‘alaihi

tawakkaltu

wa Huwa Rab-bal ‘arshil ‘azeem — Allah is

sufficient for me. There is no GOD but He.

I have placed my trust in Him, He is Lord of

the Majestic Throne, A’ameen

(Whoever says this 7 times in the morning

after fajr,

and 7 times after Asr, Allah will take care of

whatever worries him

/her of the matter of this world and the

hereafter)[Narrated Abu Dawood,

45. The Messenger of Allaah -sallAllaahu

alayhi wa sallam- said:

The supplication of Yunas, when he

supplicated while he was in the belly of

the whale: imperfection, indeed I am from

amongst the Thalimoon (oppressors) — La
ilaha ‘illa ‘anta, subhanaka ‘innee kuntu
minath-thalimeena

No Muslim ever supplicates with this for

anything except that Allaah

responds to him.

46. Whoever says — Indeed, we belong to

Allaah and indeed to Him is our return — O
Allaah recompense me for my affliction and
replace it with something better than that —
Inna lil-lahi wa inna ‘ilayhi raji’oona,
‘allahumma’jurnee fee museebatee, wa
ákhliflee khayran minha Except that Allaah
compensates him in what he has been
afflicted with, and gives him that which is
better than the previous thing.

47. Allah’s Messenger (‫ )ﷺ‬said: «If one, after

perfecting ablution, recites the following
supplication: “Ash-hadu an la ilaha ill-Allahu
wahdahu la sharika lahu, wa ash hadu anna
Muhammadan ‘abduhu wa Rasuluhu”, (I
testify that there is no one worthy of worship
but Allah, He is Alone and has no partner and
Muhammad (‫ )ﷺ‬is his slave and Messenger),
all the eight gates of Paradise will be opened
for him and he may enter through any gate he
wishes» (Muslim).

48. Saying- La Hawla wa la Quwatta illa Billah

(There is no Might or Power except with
Allah)

[the above is] a treasure from the treasures of

Paradise.

49.Forgiving sins — Abu Hurairah (May Allah

be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (‫ )ﷺ‬used to say in his

prostration: Allahum-maghfir li dhanbi
kullahu: diqqahu wa jillahu, wa ‘awwalahu
wa akhirahu, wa alaniyatahu wa sirrahu (O
Allah! Forgive all my sins, the small and the
great, first and the last, the open and the
secret).”

50. Allahumma anta Rabbi la ilaha illa anta,

Anta Khalaqtani wa ana abduka, wa ana ‘ala
ahdika wa wa’dika mastata’tu, A’udhu bika
min Sharri ma sana’tu, abu’u Laka bini’matika
‘alaiya, wa Abu Laka bidhanbi faghfirli innahu
la yaghfiru adhdhunuba illa fanta

(O Allah! You are my Lord! None has the right

to be worshipped but You. You created me
and I am Your slave, and I am faithful to my
covenant and my promise as much as I can. I
