May Allah reward you with good. What is the authenticity of this hadith from Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him)
Sa'd b. Abu Waqqas said: Once when we were with God’s messenger he asked whether any of us was incapable of acquiring a thousand blessings daily, and when one of those who were sitting with him asked how any of them could acquire a thousand blessings he replied, “If he says ‘Glory be to God' a hundred times, a thousand blessings will be recorded for him or a thousand sins will be removed from him.”
