Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. You have been generous, Shaykh Salih, in mentioning the dhikr, some of its times, and some of its virtues. Are there any books that indicate this and benefit the Muslim so that he may always be close to the remembrance of Allah?
Answer:
The best dhikr is what is reported in the Book and the Sunnah. The Qur'an contains many Qur'anic supplications with which the Muslim calls upon his Lord, such as the supplication in the last verse of Surat al-Baqarah.
The supplication in the last verse of Surat al-Imran, and all the other supplications that Allah the Exalted mentioned in His Book. Also, the supplications with which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate and taught them to his Ummah, which are narrated in the books of authentic hadith. There are also specialized books on dhikr, such as the Book of Dhikr by Imam al-Nawawi, such as Al-Wabil al-Sayyib min al-Kalim al-Tayyib (The Abundant Rain of Sweet Words) by Imam Ibn al-Qayyim, such as...
...Al-Kalim al-Tayyib (The Sweet Word) by Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, and the treatise on dhikr, Tuhfat al-Akhyar (The Gift of the Righteous), by our Shaykh, Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Baz, may Allah grant him success and preserve him. It is printed and distributed.
These are reliable books containing great dhikr. Therefore, a person should strive to acquire them and remember Allah with the dhikr reported from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) found in them. They are also clear, as the times for the dhikr and the hours suitable for them are explained in them. Some of the dhikr is absolute, which a person can say at any time and in any state. Yes.
