Question:
Also, from the questions of the woman from the Prophet's City, she asks about a person saying "Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi, Subhan Allah al-Azim, Allahu Akbar" as many times as the leaves of the trees, the drops of rain, or the number of people. Is this sufficient in place of sayingSunan an-Nasa'i 1353Da'if (Darussalam)? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
This is not sufficient in place of the dhikr (remembrance of Allah) transmitted with these specific words: "Allahu Akbar" thirty-three times, "Subhan Allah" thirty-three times, and "Alhamdulillah" thirty-three times. And he says to complete the hundred: "La ilaha illa Allah wahdahu la sharika lah, lahul-mulk wa lahul-hamd wa huwa 'ala kulli shay'in qadir" (There is no god but Allah alone, without partner; to Him belongs dominion and to Him belongs praise, and He is over all things competent). This is what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded and encouraged, so it should be done. If the Muslim adds to this from beneficial supplications, there is no harm in that. Yes.
