Question:
Is it true thatMishkat al-Masabih 2404?
Answer:
Yes, the remembrance of Allah Mighty and Majestic through tasbih, tahlil, and takbir brings great rewards and abundant good. It is reported that whoever says "Subhan Allah" (Glory be to Allah) one hundred times, Allah forgives him, and it is as if he had freed ten slaves, or as it came from him (peace and blessings be upon him). Likewise, the sins of those who remember Allah Mighty and Majestic are forgiven, even if they are like the foam of the sea. There are many texts from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraging the prescribed dhikr (remembrance of Allah). Allah has commanded His remembrance and the abundance of His remembrance, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Mishkat al-Masabih 2263 So, dhikr brings life to the hearts, whereas abandoning dhikr brings death to the hearts and heedlessness regarding Allah Glorified and Exalted is He. Yes, may Allah reward you.
Is it true that
if anyone says three times when going to bed, "I ask the forgiveness of God than whom there is no god, the Living, the Eternal, and I turn in repentance to Him," God will forgive him his sins, even if they are like the foam of the sea
