[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is nothing more honorable to Allah than supplication."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ أَكْرَمُ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنَ الدُّعَاءَ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Supplication (du'a') is itself the worship. (He then recited:) "And your Lord said: Call on Me, I will answer you" (xI.60). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1479)   

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ الدُّعَاءَ هُوَ الْعِبَادَةُ» ثُمَّ قَرَأَ {وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ} [غافر 60]  

[Machine] About Thar towards him, and as for the story of Jarir  

عَنْ ذَرٍّ نَحْوَهُ وَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ جَرِيرٍ  

[Machine] About Thar, he mentioned it with its chain of narration like it, and for this hadith there is a corroborating witness with a sound chain of narration from Abdullah ibn Abbas.  

عَنْ ذَرٍّ ذَكَرَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ بِمِثْلِهِ وَلِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ شَاهِدٌ بِإِسْنَادٍ صَحِيحٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ  

that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Supplication is the worship." Then he recited: 'And your Lord said: 'Call upon Me, I will answer you. Verily, those who scorn my My worship, they will surely enter Hell in humiliation (40:60).'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3247)   

{وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِي سَيَدْخُلُونَ جَهَنَّمَ دَاخِرِينَ} [غافر 60]  

Messenger of Allah (saas) said: "Whoever does not call upon Allah, He will be angry with him." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3827)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ لَا يَدْعُو اللَّهَ يَغْضَبْ عَلَيْهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever does not supplicate to Allah, He becomes angry with him. Indeed, Allah becomes angry with the one who does not supplicate to Him, and no one does that except himself."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ لَا يَدْعُو اللَّهَ يَغْضَبْ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَيَغْضَبُ عَلَى مَنْ يَفْعَلُهُ وَلَا يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُهُ» يَعْنِي فِي الدُّعَاءِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no group of people who sit together in a gathering and disperse from it without mentioning Allah in it, except that it is as if they have dispersed from the carcass of a dead donkey, and they will have regret on the Day of Resurrection."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا مِنْ قَوْمٍ جَلَسُوا مَجْلِسًا وَتَفَرَّقُوا مِنْهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ فِيهِ إِلَّا كَأَنَّمَا تَفَرَّقُوا عَنْ جِيفَةِ حِمَارٍ وَكَانَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَسْرَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

The same as No. 290. from the Prophet. (Using translation from Bukhārī 1199b)  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ  

[Machine] "A group of people who gather and then disperse without remembering Allah and sending peace and blessings upon His Prophet ﷺ , will have regret on the Day of Judgment."  

«مَا جَلَسَ قَوْمٌ مَجْلِسًا ثُمَّ تَفَرَّقُوا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ وَيُصَلُّوا عَلَى نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ إِلَّا كَانَ عَلَيْهِمْ حَسْرَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No group of people gathers and then disperses without mentioning the name of Allah, as if they have dispersed with nothing but the hoofprints of a donkey."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا اجْتَمَعَ قَوْمٌ ثُمَّ تَفَرَّقُوا لَمْ يَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ كَأَنَّمَا تَفَرَّقُوا إِلَّا عَنْ جِيفَةِ حِمَارٍ»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Duʿāʾ (supplication) is the weapon of the believer, the pillar of religion, and the nūr (light) of the heavens and the earth."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الدُّعَاءُ سِلَاحُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَعِمَادُ الدِّينِ وَنُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Precaution does not protect a person from Fate, and supplication benefits from what has descended and what has not descended. And indeed, calamity descends, and supplication intercepts it until the Day of Resurrection."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يُغْنِي حَذَرٌ مِنْ قَدَرٍ وَالدُّعَاءُ يَنْفَعُ مِمَّا نَزَلَ وَمِمَّا لَمْ يَنْزِلْ وَإِنَّ الْبَلَاءَ لَيَنْزِلُ فَيَتَلَقَّاهُ الدُّعَاءُ فَيَعْتَلِجَانِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

“Nothing increases one’s life span except righteousness and nothing repels the Divine decree except supplication, and a man may be deprived of provision by a sin that he commits.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4022)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يَرُدُّ الْقَدَرَ إِلَّا الدُّعَاءُ وَلَا يَزِيدُ فِي الْعُمُرِ إِلَّا الْبِرُّ وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُحْرَمُ الرِّزْقَ بِالذَّنْبِ يُصِيبُهُ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Supplication benefits from what has come down and what has not yet come down, so upon you is to supplicate, O servants of Allah."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الدُّعَاءُ يَنْفَعُ مِمَّا نَزَلَ وَمِمَّا لَمْ يَنْزِلْ فَعَلَيْكُمْ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ بِالدُّعَاءِ»  

that the Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no Muslim who calls upon Allah, without sin or cutting family ties, but that Allah will give him one of three answers: (1) He will quickly fulfill his supplication, (2) He will store it for him in the Hereafter, or (3) He will divert an evil from him similar to it.”

They said, “In that case we will ask for more.” The Prophet said, “Allah has even more.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 11133)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَدْعُو اللَّهَ بِدَعْوَةٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا مَأْثَمٌ وَلَا قَطِيعَةُ رَحِمٍ إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ إِمَّا أَنْ يَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ دَعْوَتَهُ أَوْ يَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهَا أَوْ يَدَّخِرَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مِثْلَهَا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِذًا نُكْثِرُ قَالَ «اللَّهُ أَكْثَرُ»  

“Call upon Allah while being certain of being answered, and know that Allah does not respond to a supplication from the heart of one heedless and occupied by play.” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3479)   

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «ادْعُوا اللَّهَ وَأَنْتُمْ مُوقِنُونَ بِالْإِجَابَةِ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَقْبَلُ دُعَاءً مِنْ قَلْبٍ غَافِلٍ لَاهٍ»  

[Machine] "About the Prophet ﷺ, he said, 'Do not feel incapable in making supplication, for no one is ever destroyed by supplicating.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَعْجِزُوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَهْلِكُ مَعَ الدُّعَاءِ أَحَدٌ»  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "Allah will answer the call of the believer on the Day of Judgment until He places him before Him. Then He will say, 'My servant, I commanded you to supplicate to Me and promised to answer you. Were you supplicating to Me?' The servant will say, 'Yes, O Lord.' Allah will say, 'Did you not supplicate to Me with a supplication except that I answered it for you? Did you not supplicate to Me on such and such day due to distress that befell you, that I relieve you from it?' The servant will respond, 'Yes, O Lord.' Allah will then say, 'Indeed, I stored this for you in Paradise.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Allah does not leave unanswered a supplication made by a believing servant. Either He hastens its fulfillment in this world or He stores it for the Hereafter.' The believer will say in that situation, 'I wish none of my supplications had been answered hastily.'"  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ يَدْعُو اللَّهُ بِالْمُؤْمِنِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ حَتَّى يُوقِفَهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَيَقُولُ عَبْدِي إِنِّي أَمَرْتُكَ أَنْ تَدْعُونَي وَوَعَدْتُكَ أَنْ أَسْتَجِيبَ لَكَ فَهَلْ كُنْتَ تَدْعُونِي؟ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ يَا رَبِّ فَيَقُولُ أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَمْ تَدْعُنِي بِدَعْوَةٍ إِلَّا اسْتَجَبْتُ لَكَ فَهَلْ لَيْسَ دَعَوْتَنِي يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا لِغَمٍّ نَزَلَ بِكَ أَنْ أُفَرِّجَ عَنْكَ فَفَرَّجْتُ عَنْكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ نَعَمْ يَا رَبِّ فَيَقُولُ فَإِنِّي عَجَّلْتُهَا لَكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَدَعَوْتَنِي يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا لِغَمٍّ نَزَلَ بِكَ أَنْ أُفَرِّجَ عَنْكَ فَلَمْ تَرَ فَرَجًا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا رَبِّ فَيَقُولُ إِنِّي ادَّخَرْتُ لَكَ بِهَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَا يَدَعُ اللَّهُ دَعْوَةً دَعَا بِهَا عَبْدُهُ الْمُؤْمِنُ إِلَّا بَيَّنَ لَهُ إِمَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ عُجِّلَ لَهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ ادُّخِرَ لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ قَالَ فَيَقُولُ الْمُؤْمِنُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْمَقَامِ يَا لَيْتَهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ عُجِّلَ لَهُ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ دُعَائِهِ  

[Machine] Jabir ibn Abdullah said, "The Prophet ﷺ came out to us and said, 'O people, indeed Allah has gardens among the angels that come to sit in gatherings of remembrance on earth, so spread yourselves in the gardens of Paradise.' They asked, 'And where are the gardens of Paradise?' He said, 'The gatherings of remembrance. So rise and go in the remembrance of Allah and remind yourselves. Whoever would like to know their position with Allah, let them look at Allah's position with them. Indeed, Allah will lower the servant from their position as according to their own self.'"  

جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ لِلَّهِ سَرَايَا مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ تَحِلُّ وَتَقِفُ عَلَى مَجَالِسِ الذِّكْرِ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَارْتَعُوا فِي رِيَاضِ الْجَنَّةِ» قَالُوا وَأَيْنَ رِيَاضُ الْجَنَّةِ؟ قَالَ «مَجَالِسُ الذِّكْرِ فَاغْدُوا وَرُوحُوا فِي ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَذَكِّرُوهُ أَنْفُسَكُمْ مَنْ كَانَ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَعْلَمَ مَنْزِلَتَهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ فَلْيَنْظُرْ كَيْفَ مَنْزِلَةُ اللَّهِ عِنْدَهُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يُنْزِلُ الْعَبْدَ مِنْهُ حَيْثُ أَنْزَلَهُ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: "Verily, Allah has angels who roam the earth in search of gatherings of remembrance. When they find such a gathering, they surround it with their wings until it reaches the heavens. Then Allah asks them, although He already knows the answer: 'From where have you come?' They reply: 'We have come from Your servants on Earth who glorify You, praise You, and declare Your greatness. They seek Your forgiveness, ask for Your protection, and beseech You.' Allah then asks: 'What do they ask of Me?' And He already knows the answer. They reply: 'They ask for Paradise.' Allah asks: 'Have they seen it?' They reply: 'No, O Lord.' He then asks: 'How would it be if they were to see Paradise?' They respond: 'They would be even more eager in their worship and obedience to You.' He asks: 'From what do they seek protection?' And He already knows the answer. They reply: 'From the Fire.' Allah asks: 'Have they seen it?' They reply: 'No, O Lord.' He then asks: 'How would it be if they were to see it?' They respond: 'They would be even more fearful and committed to avoiding it.' Then Allah says: 'Bear witness, O angels, that I have forgiven them and granted them what they asked for, and I have accepted their seeking of my protection.' They say: 'Our Lord, among them is a servant who is a sinner. He happens to be sitting amongst them, although he is not truly one of them.' Allah says, 'He too is forgiven, for they are a people whose sitting companions will not be unfortunate.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ لِلَّهِ مَلَائِكَةً سَيَّارَةً وَفُضَلَاءَ يَلْتَمِسُونَ مَجَالِسَ الذِّكْرِ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَإِذَا أَتَوْا عَلَى مَجْلِسِ ذِكْرٍ حَفَّ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا بِأَجْنِحَتِهِمْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَيَقُولُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى مِنْ أَيْنَ جِئْتُمْ؟ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ فَيَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا جِئْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِ عِبَادِكَ يُسَبِّحُونَكَ وَيُكَبِّرُونَكَ وَيَحْمَدُونَكَ وَيُهَلِّلُونَكَ وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ وَيَسْتَجِيرُونَكَ فَيَقُولُ مَا يَسْأَلُونَنِي؟ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ فَيَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا يَسْأَلُونَكَ الْجَنَّةَ فَيَقُولُ وَهَلْ رَأَوْهَا؟ فَيَقُولُونَ لَا يَا رَبِّ فَيَقُولُ كَيْفَ لَوْ رَأَوْهَا؟ فَيَقُولُ وَمِمَّ يَسْتَجِيرُونَنِي؟ وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ فَيَقُولُونَ مِنَ النَّارِ فَيَقُولُ هَلْ رَأَوْهَا؟ فَيَقُولُونَ لَا فَيَقُولُ فَكَيْفَ لَوْ رَأَوْهَا؟ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اشْهَدُوا أَنِّي قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَهُمْ وَأَعْطَيْتُهُمْ مَا سَأَلُونِي وَأَجَرْتُهُمْ مِمَّا اسْتَجَارُونِي فَيَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا إِنَّ فِيهِمْ عَبْدًا خَطَّاءً جَلَسَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُمْ فَيَقُولُ وَهُوَ أَيْضًا قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَهُ هُمُ الْقَوْمُ لَا يَشْقَى بِهِمْ جَلِيسُهُمْ  

"The laws of Islam are burdensome for me. Tell me of something that I will be able to adhere to. He said: 'Always keep your tongue moist with the remembrance of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3793)  

لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ شَرَائِعَ الْإِسْلَامِ قَدْ كَثُرَتْ عَلَيَّ فَأَنْبِئْنِي بِشَيْءٍ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِهِ فَقَالَ «لَا يَزَالُ لِسَانُكَ رَطْبًا مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The ones who excel are the Mufridoon." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, who are the Mufridoon?" He said, "Those who constantly remember Allah."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «سَبَقَ الْمُفَرِّدُونَ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا الْمُفَرِّدُونَ؟ قَالَ «الَّذِينَ يُهْتَرُونَ فِي ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Indeed, Allah says, 'I am with My servant as long as he remembers Me and his lips move in My remembrance."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ أَنَا مَعَ عَبْدِي إِذَا هُوَ ذَكَرَنِي وَتَحَرَّكَتْ بِي شَفَتَاهُ  

"Shall I not tell you of the best of your deeds, the most pleasing to your Sovereign, those that raise you most in status, that are better than your gold and silver, or meeting you enemy (in battle) and you strike their necks and they strike your necks?" They said: " WHat is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "Remembering Allah(Dhikr)." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3790)   

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَلَا أُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ أَعْمَالِكُمْ وَأَزْكَاهَا عِنْدَ مَلِيكِكُمْ وَأَرْفَعِهَا فِي دَرَجَاتِكُمْ وَخَيْرٌ لَكُمْ مِنْ إِعْطَاءِ الذَّهَبِ وَالْوَرِقِ وَأَنْ تَلْقَوْا عَدُوَّكُمْ فَتَضْرِبُوا أَعْنَاقَهُمْ وَيَضْرِبُوا أَعْنَاقَكُمْ؟» قَالُوا وَمَا ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «ذِكْرُ اللَّهِ ﷻ» وَقَالَ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ «مَا عَمِلَ آدَمِيٌّ مِنْ عَمَلٍ أَنْجَى لَهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ ﷻ»  

[Machine] "Abu al-Qasim ﷺ said: 'Any group of people who gather and prolong their sitting without mentioning Allah and sending blessings upon his Prophet ﷺ , they will be held accountable by Allah. If He wills, He will punish them, and if He wills, He will forgive them.'"  

أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ «أَيُّمَا قَوْمٍ جَلَسُوا فَأَطَالُوا الْجُلُوسَ ثُمَّ تَفَرَّقُوا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ وَيُصَلُّوا عَلَى نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ إِلَّا كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ تِرَةٌ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ عَذَّبَهُمْ وَإِنْ شَاءَ غَفَرَ لَهُمْ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to say "Subhanak Allahumma rabbi wa bihamdik, la ilaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk" whenever he would rise from a gathering. So, I asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, why do you often say these words when you rise?" He replied, "Whoever says these words when rising from a gathering, all his sins committed in that gathering will be forgiven."  

مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ مِنْ مَجْلِسٍ إِلَّا قَالَ «سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ رَبِّي وَبِحَمْدِكَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ» فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا أَكْثَرَ مَا تَقُولُ هَؤُلَاءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ إِذَا قُمْتَ قَالَ «لَا يَقُولُهُنَّ مِنْ أَحَدٍ حِينَ يَقُومُ مِنْ مَجْلِسِهِ إِلَّا غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا كَانَ مِنْهُ فِي ذَلِكَ الْمَجْلِسِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Allah, Mighty and Exalted, says, "I am as My servant thinks of Me, and I am with him when he remembers Me. Mentioning Me is a way to bring me closer, and making supplication is a unique way to gain nearness to Me. Indeed, Muhammad ibn Al-Qasim is trustworthy and in this chain of narration Saleh narrates, 'Jazra said.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ اللَّهُ ﷻ عَبْدِي أَنَا عِنْدَ ظَنِّكَ بِي وَأَنَا مَعَكَ إِذَا ذَكَّرْتَنِي «ذِكْرُ الظَّنِّ مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ وَذِكْرُ الدُّعَاءِ غَرِيبٌ صَحِيحٌ فَإِنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ الْقَاسِمِ ثِقَةٌ وَفِي هَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ يَقُولُ صَالِحٌ جَزْرَةَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no servant who directs his face towards Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, in supplication, except that Allah grants him what he asks for, either by hastening its fulfillment or by saving it for him."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَنْصِبُ وَجْهَهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ ﷻ فِي مَسْأَلَةٍ إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهَا إِمَّا أَنْ يُعَجِّلَهَا وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَدَّخِرَهَا  

[Machine] "From Abu Uthman Al-Nahdi."  

عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah is Ḥayī (shy) and Karīm (generous). He is too shy to let His servant extend his hands in supplication and then return them empty."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَيِيٌّ كَرِيمٌ يَسْتَحِي مِنْ عَبْدِهِ أَنْ يَبْسُطَ إِلَيْهِ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَرُدَّهُمَا خَائِبَتَيْنِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Verily, Allah is Merciful, Modest, and Generous. He is too modest to let his servant raise his hands to Him and then not put anything good in them."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ اللَّهَ رَحِيمٌ حَيِيٌّ كَرِيمٌ يَسْتَحِي مِنْ عَبْدِهِ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ إِلَيْهِ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ لَا يَضَعُ فِيهِمَا خَيْرًا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever is granted in supplication from among you, the gates of Paradise are opened for him, and a servant does not ask Allah for anything more beloved to Him than to ask for well-being (health and wellness)."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ فُتِحَ لَهُ فِي الدُّعَاءِ مِنْكُمْ فُتِحَتْ لَهُ أَبْوَابُ الْجَنَّةِ وَلَا يَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ عَبْدٌ شَيْئًا أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ الْعَافِيَةَ»  

"I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'The best of remembrance is La ilaha illallah (None has the right to be worshipped but Allah), and the best of supplication is Al-Hamdu Lillah (praise is to Allah).'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3800)  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «أَفْضَلُ الذِّكْرِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَفْضَلُ الدُّعَاءِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ»  

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ begin a supplication by saying: "Subhan Rabbi al-A'la al-Wahhab."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَسْتَفْتِحُ دُعَاءً إِلَّا اسْتَفْتَحَهُ بِسُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْعَلِيِّ الْأَعْلَى الْوَهَّابِ  

[Machine] I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "Glorify and exalt the Lord of Majesty and Honor."  

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «أَلِظُّوا بِيَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Glorify and honor with me, O Possessor of Glory and Generosity."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَلِظُّوا بِيَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ asked them, "Do you want, O people, to exert yourselves in supplication?" They said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Say, 'O Allah, help me in remembering You, expressing gratitude to You, and worshiping You excellently.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَهُمْ «أَتُحِبُّونَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَنْ تَجْتَهِدُوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ قُولُوا اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى ذِكْرِكَ وَشُكْرِكَ وَحُسْنِ عِبَادَتِكَ  

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Increase in the remembrance of Allah until people consider you insane.' This is an authentic newspaper for Egyptians with a sound chain of narration, and Abu Haytham Sulaiman ibn Uthbah Al-Utwari is reliable from the people of Egypt."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أَكْثِرُوا ذِكْرَ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا مَجْنُونٌ» هَذِهِ صَحِيفَةٌ لِلْمِصْرِيِّينَ صَحِيحَةُ الْإِسْنَادِ وَأَبُو الْهَيْثَمِ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عُتْبَةَ الْعُتْوَارِيُّ مِنْ ثِقَاتِ أَهْلِ مِصْرَ  

[Machine] "When a matter was brought to the Prophet, peace be upon him, which pleased him, he would say, 'Praise be to Allah by whose blessings good deeds are perfected.' And when a matter was brought to him that displeased him, he would say, 'Praise be to Allah in every circumstance.'"  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا أَتَاهُ الْأَمْرُ يَسُرُّهُ قَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي بِنِعْمَتِهِ تَتِمُّ الصَّالِحَاتُ» وَإِذَا أَتَاهُ الْأَمْرُ يَكْرَهُهُ قَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Those who remember Allah with majestic glorification, praise, magnification, and glorification, gather around the Throne. They have a sound like the sound of bees, and they say to their companion, 'Doesn't one of you love to have something with the Most Merciful that reminds him of Him?'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّهَ مِنْ جَلَالِ التَّمْجِيدِ وَالتَّسْبِيحِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ وَالتَّهْلِيلِ يَتَعَاطَفْنَ حَوْلَ الْعَرْشِ لَهُنَّ دَوِيٌّ كَدَوِيِّ النَّحْلِ يَقُلْنَ لِصَاحِبِهِنَّ أَلَا يُحِبُّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ شَيْءٌ يُذَكِّرُهُ بِهِ»  

[Machine] Abu Asim al-Nabil narrated to us that Abdul Hamid ibn Ja'far narrated to him, who said that Saleh ibn Abi 'Ariib narrated to him, from Kathir ibn Murrah, from Muadh ibn Jabal, who said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever's last words are 'There is no god but Allah' will enter Paradise."  

ثنا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ النَّبِيلُ ثنا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنِي صَالِحُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرِيبٍ عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ كَانَ آخِرُ كَلَامِهِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever says 'There is no god but Allah, alone without partner, to Him belongs dominion and praise, and He is able to do all things' one hundred times in a day, no one will have done better than him except for someone who does more than that." I heard the teacher Abu al-Walid al-Qurashi saying, "I heard Ibrahim ibn Abi Talib saying, 'I heard Ishaq ibn Ibrahim saying, 'If the narrator is trustworthy, then he is like Ayyub reporting from Nafi' reporting from Ibn Umar.'"  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ قَالَ فِي يَوْمٍ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ لَمْ يَسْبِقْهُ أَحَدٌ كَانَ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا يُدْرِكُهُ أَحَدٌ كَانَ بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا مَنْ عَمِلَ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ» سَمِعْتُ الْأُسْتَاذَ أَبَا الْوَلِيدِ الْقُرَشِيَّ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ يَقُولُ إِذَا كَانَ الرَّاوِي عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ ثِقَةً فَهُوَ كَأَيُّوبَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ  

[Machine] "We were in the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he said, 'Is there a stranger among you?' meaning the people of the Book. We replied, 'No, O Messenger of Allah.' He then ordered the door to be closed and said, 'Raise your hands and say, "There is no god but Allah." ' We raised our hands for a while, then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed his hand down and said, 'All praise is due to Allah. O Allah, you have sent me with this word, commanded me to follow it, and promised me Paradise in return for it. Surely, you do not break your promise.' Then he said, 'Rejoice, for surely Allah has forgiven you.'"  

إِنَّا لَعِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذْ قَالَ «هَلْ فِيكُمْ غَرِيبٌ؟» يَعْنِي أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ قُلْنَا لَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَأَمَرَ بِغَلْقِ الْبَابِ فَقَالَ «ارْفَعُوا أَيْدِيكُمْ فَقُولُوا لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ» فَرَفَعْنَا أَيْدِيَنَا سَاعَةً ثُمَّ وَضَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ بَعَثْتَنِي بِهَذِهِ الْكَلِمَةِ وَأَمَرَتْنِي بِهَا وَوَعَدْتَنِي عَلَيْهَا الْجَنَّةَ إِنَّكَ لَا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَبْشِرُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ غَفَرَ لَكُمْ»  

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ , "Whoever says 'There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, alone, without any partners. To Him belongs the kingdom and all praise, and He is capable of all things' ten times, they will be rewarded as if they have freed a slave."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ فَهُوَ كَعِتَاقِ نَسَمَةٍ  

[Machine] From Abu Abdullah Al-Jassari, who heard it from Hyyun min Anazah, who heard it from Abdullah ibn As-Samit, who heard it from Abu Dharr, who said: I said, "O Messenger of Allah, which speech is most beloved to Allah, from my mother and father?" He said, "Whatever Allah has chosen for His angels to say, 'Glory be to my Lord, and praise be to Him'."  

عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْجَسْرِيُّ حَيٌّ مِنْ عَنَزَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِأُمِّي وَأَبِي أَيُّ الْكَلَامِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ مَا اصْطَفَاهُ اللَّهُ لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّي وَبِحَمْدِهِ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّي وَبِحَمْدِهِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever says: ‘Glory is to Allah, the Magnificent, and with His Praise (Subḥān Allāhil-Aẓīm, wa biḥamdih)’ a date-palm tree is planted for him in Paradise.” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3464)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ غُرِسَتْ لَهُ نَخْلَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ  

[Machine] I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the interpretation of "Subhan Allah". He said, "It is the glorification of Allah and His purity from all evil."  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ تَفْسِيرِ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «هُوَ تَنْزِيهُ اللَّهِ عَنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to frequently say, "Subhanak Allahumma wa bihamdik Allahumma ighfir li" (Glory be to You, O Allah, and praise be to You. O Allah, forgive me). But when the verse "When the help of Allah comes and the victory" [Surah An-Nasr, verse 1] was revealed, he said, "Subhanak Allahumma Allahumma ighfir li, innaka antal Wahhab" (Glory be to You, O Allah! O Allah, forgive me. You are the Generous Bestower). This is a valid chain of narration if Abu Ubaydah ibn Abdullah ibn Mas'ud heard it from his father and they did not omit it.  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُكْثِرُ أَنْ يَقُولُ «سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي» فَلَمَّا نَزَلَتْ {إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَالْفَتْحُ} [النصر 1] قَالَ «سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْوَهَّابُ» هَذَا إِسْنَادٌ صَحِيحٌ إِنْ كَانَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ سَمِعَ مِنْ أَبِيهِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَاهُ  

[Machine] He heard the Prophet ﷺ saying: Whoever says "Subhanallah (Glory be to Allah), Alhamdulillah (All praise be to Allah), La ilaha illa Allah (There is no god except Allah), Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest), and there is no power or strength except with Allah," Allah says: "My servant has submitted and surrendered."  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ قَالَ اللَّهُ أَسْلَمَ عَبْدِي وَاسْتَسْلَمَ
