A tasbih (prayer beads) over two meters long, containing more than two thousand beads

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I found at one of my relatives' houses a tasbih (prayer beads) that is over two meters long and has more than two thousand beads. She claims that she uses it to recite the tasbih because she wants to increase her remembrance of Allah. Is her action correct?

Answer:
This is the practice of the Sufis; it is the symbol of the Sufis, the tasbih of the Sufis. Advise her against this action, and tell her to recite the tasbih with her fingers, counting the remembrance with her fingers. This is what is prescribed for you. Do not imitate the Sufis with these thick tasbih. Yes.
