Question:
Peace be upon you. The caller is Hasan Ahmad from Yemen. He says in his question: Honorable Shaykh, peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy and blessings. To proceed: I ask about the authenticity of this hadith narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said," Whoever says: "La ilaha illal-lah wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahu-l-mulk wa lahul- hamd wa huwa 'ala kulli shai'in qadir," one hundred times will get the same reward asصلى الله عليه وسلم من قال لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيء قدير في يوم مئة مرة كانت له عدل
Sahih al-Bukhari 6403
ten slaves, and one hundred good deeds are recorded for him, and one hundred sins are erased from him,عشر رقاب وكتبت له مئة حسنة ومحيت عنه مئة سيئة
and it was a protection for him from Satan for that day until evening, and no one came with anything better than what he brought except a man who did more than him. And he said:
Whoever says, 'Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi,' one hundred times a day, will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea.مَنْ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ فِي يَوْمٍ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ حُطَّتْ خَطَايَاهُ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ مِثْلَ زَبَدِ الْبَحْرِ
Sahih al-Bukhari 6405
