Home Hadith Hadith 34239
Yahya related to me from Malik that Umara ibn Sayyad had heard
Said ibn al Musayyab say about abiding good deeds that they were a
slave's saying 'Allah is greater' (Allahu akbar) and 'Glory be to
Allah' (Subahana'llah) and 'Praise be to Allah' (al-hamdu lillah) and
'There is no god but Allah and there is no power and no strength
except by Allah.' (La ilaha illa'llah wa la hawla wa la
quwwata illa bi'llah.)
Muwatta Malik Book 15, Hadith 25

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Ubayd, the mawla of
Sulayman ibn Abd al-Malik, from Ata ibn Yazid al-Laythi that Abu
Hurayra said, "Whoever says 'Glory be to Allah' (Subhana'llah) thirty-
three times and 'Allah is Greater' (Allahu akbar) thirty-three times
and 'Praise be to Allah' (al-hamdu lillah) thirty-three times, and
seals the hundred with 'There is no god but Allah, alone without any
partner. The Kingdom and praise belong to Him and He has power over
everything' (La ilaha illa'llah, wahdahu la sharika lah, lahu'l mulku
wa lahu'l hamd, wa huwa ala kulli shay'in qadir) after every prayer
will have his wrong actions forgiven him even if they are abundant as
the foam on the sea."

Yahya related to me from Malik that Ziyad ibn Abi Ziyad said that
Abu'd-Darda had said, "Shall I not tell you the best of your deeds,
and those that give you the highest rank, and those that are the
purest with your King, and are better for you than giving gold and
silver, and better for you than meeting your enemy and striking their
necks?" They said, "Of course." He said, "Remembrance (dhikr) of Allah
ta ala."
