21. The reward of freeing the four slaves of Bani Ismail (AS)
Say ten times -
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ، وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
لَا اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَحْدَهٗ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهٗ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ، وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيْرٌ
Laa 'ilaaha 'illAllahu wahdahu laa shareeka lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu wa Huwa 'alaa kulli shay'in Qadeer
None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, without any partner. To Him belong all sovereignty and praise and He is over all things omnipotent.
Whoever says this dua ten times is like one who has freed four slaves from among the children of Ismaa'eel.
22. Sins will be forgiven even if like the foam of the sea
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, A person who says 100 times a day -
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ
سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ وَبِحَمْدِهٖ
SubhaanAllahi wa bihamdihi
Glorified is Allah and praised is He.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, A person who says 100 times a day (dua mentioned above) It will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea.
23. A dhikr which is light on tongue, Heavy on the balance
The Prophet (ﷺ) 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 those are -
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ، سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ
سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ وَبِحَمْدِهٖ، سُبْحانَ اللّٰهِ الْعَظِيْمِ
SubhaanAllahi wa bihamdihi, Subhaanal-laahil-'Adheem
Glory be to Allah and all praise is due to him, glory be to Allah the great.
