The Importance And Virtues Of Zikrullah (rememberance Of Allah) by tola9ja: 8:23pm On Feb 17, 2013
Allah says in the Qur'an "Remember Allah abundantly, in order that you
become successful" Quran (Surah 8: Verse 45) "Only in the remembrance of Allah
(swt) will your heart find peace" Quran (Surah 13: Verse 28) "Those men and women who engage
much in Allah's praise. for them Allah
has prepared forgiveness and a Great
Reward" Quran (Surah 33: Verse 35) "When any group of men remember
Allah, angels surround them and
mercy covers them, tranquility
descends upon them, and Allah
mentions them to those who are with
Him." (Muslim) We also know that remembering
Allah is of the greatest deed: "The rememebrence of Allah (swt) is
the greatest (deed)" Quran (Surah 29: Verse 45) and of the the worst things we can
do is not to remember Allah: "Satan has mastered them and caused
them to forget the Remembrance of
Allah. Those are satan's party; and
satan's party shall assuredly be the
losers" Quran (Surah 58: Verse 19) "Whosoever turns away from the
Remembrance of Allah, He will hurl
him into a stern punishment". Quran (Surah 72: Verse 17) "Whosoever turns away from My
remembrance, his life will be made
tight and narrow on the Day of
Resurrection We shall raise him blind" Quran (Surah 20: Verse 124) Allah tells us to remember him no
matter what we do whether that be
lying or sitting down: "They are the most wise who
remember Allah, standing sitting and
lying down" Quran (Surah 4: Verse 190) We should remember Allah no matter
what we are doing and we should
ALWAYS try to keep our tongues moist
with his rememberance and
glorification. However we cannot
glorify him in the toilet. That is why we are recommended to
haste in doing whatever we have to
do in the toilet so that we can continue
to add to our good deed accounts. The tongue is connected to the heart
and we should try not to merely get
into the habit of glorifying him with
only the tongue but we should try and
make connection to the heart
whenever we are glorifying and praising him. All good deeds are not rewarded the
same. They are dependant upon how
much sincerety and khushoo a person
has whilst doing the good action as
well as the intention of the good act. So we should all endevour to try and
make a connection from our tongues
to our hearts especially in Salah and
try not to make our minds wonder
elsewhere otherwise it is said that we
are robbing our Salah and therefore lessening the reward for it. Same way
with zikr we should make a
connection with the heart to get the
full benefits from zikr aswell as more
of a reward from it. Here are some very beneficial Zikr's
that we can all do especially in the
remaining days of this Ramadhan and
throughout the year everyday and we
should try to every minute and
second. Some beneficial dhikr include: Subhan'Allah- 'Praise be to Allah' Al-Hamdullilah- 'Thanks be to Allah' Allahu Akbar – 'Allah is the Greatest.' La ila ha illallah- There is no worthy of worship except allah Abu haraira(ra) Narrates: Prophet
(saw) said: whoever says: Subhanallahi Wa Bihamdihi – (I deem Allah free of any resemblances
to anything whatever in any repeat,
and I glorify his praises) one hundred
times a day will have his sins forgiven
even though they may be as much as
the foam of the sea – (Bukhari,b73:c19) Another naration says a date palm
will be planted for him in Paradise (Tirmidhi) Read much of this Zikr: Subhaan-Allahi walhamdu-lillaahi,
wa laa ilaa-ha illa-la ill-lal-lahu
wallahu Akbar, walaa haula wala
quoow-wata illa billa hil-Aliyyil-
azeem. "Glory is for Allaah and all Praise is
due to Allah. There is none worthy
of worship except Allaah. Allaah is
the greatest. There is no power and
no strength except with Allaah the
Most High, the Great." Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon
him) said: "Is anyone of you incapable of earning one thousand
Hasanah (rewards) a day?" Someone from the gathering asked, "How can anyone of us earn a thousand
Hasanah?" Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: "Glorify Allah a hundred times by just saying
“Subhanallah” and a Good deeds will
be written for you, or a thousand sins
will be wiped away.” [Muslim 4:2073]Allah says in the Qur'an "Remember Allah abundantly, in order that you
become successful" Quran (Surah 8: Verse 45) "Only in the remembrance of Allah
(swt) will your heart find peace" Quran (Surah 13: Verse 28) "Those men and women who engage
