Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the dhikr, it is reported that someone said: "There is no god but Allah alone, He has no partner, His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He is over all things competent." In some narrations,
None has the right to be worshipped by Allah, Alone, without partner, to Him belongs all that exists, and to Him belongs the praise, [He gives life and causes death,] and He has power over all thingsلا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له، له الملك وله الحمد، يحيي ويميت، وهو على كل شيء قدير
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3553Sahih (Darussalam)
. Which is more authentic for the dhikr?

Answer:
It is all valid, if Allah wills. It is all from the words of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). So do not say which is lesser. But say which is better. What is more abundant is better. What has more words and praise of Allah is better. Yes.
