Question:
Is it permissible to remember Allah in one's heart, without moving the lips? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes, remembering Allah in the heart is prescribed, but remembering Allah with the tongue and speech is better. This is based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in what he narrated from his Lord (Mighty and Majestic), that He said: Allah the Exalted says:Mishkat al-Masabih 2264 meaning the angels. The point is that remembering Allah is prescribed whether it is in the heart or with words, but with words is better and more excellent. Yes.
