To move on with the final remaining avgar
that I did not share and not elaborate
on because they are avgar that have already
come with us.
Rather, we're just going to now mention
what they are and how they're supposed to
be said and how many times and so
on. So we'll begin with the first one
of these and that is subhanallahi
wabihamdihi
We shared that last time into detail, right?
But there is a hadith that is mentioned
narrated that the messenger
that the messenger of Allah Almighty wasalam said,
whoever says Subhan Allahu wa bihamdihi in the
morning and in the evening a 100 times
will not be surpassed on the day of
judgement by anyone with better deeds except the
one who says the same words or more.
Ibn Haban, rahimahullah
narrated
his narration mentions that it is to be
said 100 times in the morning
and 100 times again in the evening.
Said anyone who says it a hundred times
in the morning
and a hundred times in the evening Subhanallah,
he will be Hamdi Then his sins are
forgiven even if they were to be the
size of the foam of the ocean.
SubhanAllah.
Now
okay
There is another narration
that mentions
That it be said a hundred times in
the morning, and a 100 times in the
evening.
And that hadith is authentic as well.
Nabi He said, anyone who says, SubhanAllah,
a 100 times in the morning, and a
100 times in the evening, No one from
the creation will bring anything like the one
which He will bring. Yeah. And He's
number 1 from the creation.
So
now in conclusion with this zikr of Subhanallahi
waddi hamdi, what you need to memorize is
this.
It is legislated
to say
a 100 times in the morning, a 100
times in the evening. Or,
Subhanallah
A 100 times in the morning, a 100
times in the evening.
Or
Subhanallahi,
wa bihamdihi, Subhanallahi, Muhamdihi, Subhanallahi,
Muhamdihi.
Merge them together.
You may also do so and say a
100 times in the morning, a 100 times
in the evening. This matter is very flexible.
Many narrations were mentioned in this. And
how does one do? You mix them around.
Maybe on a Monday, you'll say, subhanallah, behamdi,
100 times, 100 times.
Then later
during the week, subhanallah,
he
like that. That's the best thing when there
are many narrations.
The solution is that you mix around.
Sometimes this one and another day. This one,
maybe in the morning, this in the evening,
something else.
Anyway, so that's the idea with this.
We come to the next one. That is
also found, and that is
There are many narrations
concerning this and its virtue.
I now know the majority of us might
see it in the apps or know that
it's to be said a 100 times sometimes.
I'll I'll
clarify the numbers for you. But then people
feel somewhat of a bit of a difficulty
and a burden,
and they skip it.
And no matter how many times we speak
about La ilaha illallah, the reality is we
are always in desperate need of a reminder
of its virtue.
And it's enough that once
Musa alaihi salaam that is hadith narrated by
Abu saiidu hububilillahu
anilid sahir
that I can remember you with.
So Allah
said,
give me something different, give me something unique,
something you give me and no one else.
So then Allah
that if the 7 heavens,
and everything in them
except for me,
So everything Allah created in the heavens, that
includes Al Aush
and the angels and the carriers of Al
Aush and the 70,000 that enter Al Bayt
Al Ma'amur
every day and don't come back to it
and all the 7 heavens and everything in
between them if all of that was put
in one side of the scale
and 1 La ilaha illallah was put in
the other side of the scale
then this side of the scale will outweigh
by heaps what was on this side of
the scale
But, you know,
as interested as you are amazed in the
hadith,
the more interesting fact I find
is that even prophets
are reminded
by Allah of the virtue of La ilaha
illallah.
Even prophets were in need
of Being reminded of its heaviness and its
virtue
So imagine Musa alaihis
Musa alaihis salam knows a lot better than
all of us.
He's Allah spoke to him.
He reached a level in life
about his knowledge of Allah to the point
where he was ready to ask Allah, arini,
let me see
you. That's the kind of knowledge you had
about Allah that he actually reached that stage
in life.
How many times have you asked Allah,
let me see you. This was
Nabi used to ask Allah
to give him that that that that sweetness
of seeing the face of Allah
on the day of judgment in the paradise.
The more you know Allah, the more eager
and passionate you become for this matter.
If you find that you haven't asked Allah
for you to see him on the day
of judgment
Then that kind of says that your knowledge
about Allah is very low.
Don't increase it Because if your knowledge about
Allah increases,
there is absolutely
no doubt, a passion will exist in your
heart that you want to see him.
So
Musa has reached that level,
but even then he needs to be reminded
of the importance and the great virtue of
La ilaha illallah.
So brothers and sisters in Islam, we never
take this matter lightly.
It was mentioned
that it is part of Af Gaol Sabahir
Mas'a to be said once
in the morning, once in the evening. That's
a narration.
Once.
Another narration
mentions 10 times in the morning and 10
times in the evening and Risaallahu
alaihi wa sallam, he said
anyone who said in the early morning, meaning
10 times,
then Allah would record for him 10 hasanat.
Wipe away 10 bad deeds.
And it would earn him the reward of
freeing 10 sleeves.
The reward of freeing 1 sleeve is your
freedom from the hellfire.
For every limb you free, that's your limb
being freed from the fire
So that's you being freed from the fire
10 times over. Wow. It's a huge word
If you say this word and you're adhering
to its meaning and living by it, that's
the key of the paradise
This is all you need to live this
worldly life. So it's it's virtue is massive.
It's unimaginable.
Will protect him from a Shaytan
the biggest evil on earth and the greatest
destruction on earth and Whoever says it in
the evening
will be given the very same things that
Allah promised in this hadith and that hadith
is authentic So this hadith suggests 10 times
in the morning, and, again, 10 times in
the evening.
Other Hadith mentioned that it is to be
said a 100 times
in the
day.
Some Hadith mentioned a 100 times in the
morning, a 100 times in the evening, and
some said a 100 in the day. So
if you took by the narration of a
100 in the day you can split them
and say 50 in the morning 50 in
the afternoon
right
And in that hadith and Nabi salallahu alaihi
wa sallam promised
that a person will be given a 100
good deeds and a 100 sins wiped away.
And who commits a 100 sins a day?
He
and if the most rebellious I don't think
he gets to a 100 sins a day.
But if that happened and it occurred from
the believer,
then rush to the forgiveness of Allah
through what Allah
taught us.
You say it a 100 times, you clear
out a 100 sins, and you'll be saved
from
until the evening. And Huva says in the
morning, you'll see until,
the evening of that day. Now,
like, so now
the final say on these,
hadith is narrated
once, 10 times, a 100,
and there is another narration that mentions,
200 times. And we said that 200 means
a 100 in the morning, a 100 in
the evening.
So the conclusion is whoever says at once,
that's great. That's good.
Whoever says it 10 times as better than
once
whoever says a 100 times Masha'Allah
as better than 10
And whoever says it 200,
so that's a 100 in the morning, 100
in the evening,
that's great. And whoever says it more than
that
is better and better
for this one and the previous one SubhanAllah
you're
allowed to go over a100
You're not confined by a100 like the
others. Because Nabi sallallahu alaihi wasallam said, no
one will be better than him on the
day of judgment, except someone who said it
like him or
increased.
So that's the evidence
for why you're able and allowed to say
it more than a 100 times.
So have something at least 10. 10 is
very easy. 10 in the morning. 10 in
the evening.
10 is difficult. 1 in the morning. 1
in the evening, so that you can take
something of its reward.
Another one that we have from the
That also to be said a 100 times
each in the morning and a 100 times
each in the afternoon and nabi salallahu alayhi
wasalam he said in the authentic hadith anyone
who says subhanallah a 100 times before sunrise
and a 100 times before sunset
It will be
better than donating a 100 camels.
And whoever says, alhamdulillah
a 100 times in the morning before sunrise
and a 100 times before sunset. It will
be better than a 100
horses, which you send feastsabidullah
and above them is a 100 warriors.
Look at the reward. And whoever says Allahu
Akbar a 100 times before sunrise and a
100 times before sunset,
It will be better than freeing 100
sleeves.
And whoever says
a 100 times before sunrise, a 100 times
before,
sunset. No one will come with better deeds
than him except someone who said it more
than him once again it's been repeated in
this hadith by so now we understand this
one and how we're going to manage and
deal with it. Well, humbly, there's no confusion
in that. Another one we have is
But brothers and sisters in Islam and Hadith
that is mentioned about this, there is a
difference of opinion.
So Hadith mentions that
said,
Allah, azza wa jal,
whoever says it 10 times in the morning,
10 times in the evening,
will earn the intercession of the messenger
on the day of judgment.
However, the majority of our ulama weakened this
narration.
It is weak
a minority
mentioned that it is authentic,
but I choose to go with the majority
for certain reasons that it's not it's time
to mention them here,
But if you want to go with a
minority that says it's authentic, no problems. If
you see someone doing it 10 times in
the morning, in the evening,
don't condemn him and say anything to him
because even the weakness of it is a
light weakness. It's not yeah. It's strong in
its weakness.
And,
salat al Nabi sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, of
course, is for all times in the morning,
in the evening, and especially on a Friday.
And whoever wants to earn the intercession of
Nabi sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
You don't have to be disheartened to know
that this hadith is weak Nabi
has given us something else that is authentic
as well.
And that is whoever says after the
or salatul
kaima at the Mohammed and in wasila told
Fabbila or bath whomakamamamamood
and in Lediwata
You can at times add in a call
at to Khalifa, and at times not add
it.
He earns the intercession of the messenger, sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam, on the day of judgment.
Now what does it mean? Nabi,
he's your lawyer.
If you're in trouble, he saves you from
that trouble.
This is huge.
If you said this after Al Adhan
So it's wise
and appropriate of a believer
from time to time to come to the
Masjid early
to heed the Adhan
and then to say after the Mu'adhim
so he can earn this reward
Stay in contact with this zikr. Don't cut
it out of your life And the last
time you said it was Bahuwala maybe on
Friday when you eat that's if you came
early to salatul Jum'ah
and if you didn't when was the last
time you heard the Adhan?
Some Adhan included
the other on the clock, the alarm clock,
or from the phone.
So if your phone
said the other, like a Sheikh Abdul Fatimir
Rahim Allah, he said,
if the Adhan was
being heard from the phone.
If you haven't prayed of salat yet
and the Adhan is on the time of
salat then yes You can repeat after the
Marvin and then say Allah more Abadi doubt
it Talma
Sheikh Ibn Basrah
added one more condition.
He said that the other must be alive,
should be ad live. Someone making it live
in your hearing.
So I don't
think we have this here.
But, for example, if you're in Saudi Arabia
or in the, yeah, in Saudi Arabia and
you had the television on, for example,
you heard the at the live event from
Al Haram.
At the time, you haven't prayed the salat
here. Then, yes, according to,
you
can see and and do those soon after,
after the adhered. Now,
And,
finally, the last one we have is Al
Istirfar,
seeking Allah's
forgiveness.
There's also a Hadith that was narrated by
Abu Musa,
We said we were seated with the messenger,
and he said,
that I have sought Allah's forgiveness in it
a hundred times
now this brothers and sisters in Islam is
a weak narration
and the most stronger narration is that the
messenger salallahu alayhi wasalam
He would say what in neela astaghfirullahahu
alayhi filiyomiakfaamisagreenamabra
I would seek Allah's forgiveness and repent to
Allah more than 70 times a day. And
in another narration,
a 100 times a day.
So when I still fall is not be
confined to morning and evening,
it's one of the day and night of
girl,
So it's not we don't say about that.
It's preferred
that you say it after fajib to sunrise,
and then you have an extended time. No.
You got the whole day in the whole
night
to do a 100 istighfar
And it could be said
a star for Allah wa atubu ilay
The minimum would be a star for Allah
Shokan rahamahullah He derived from kawli ta'ala and
he start for a buckum from a tubulay
He said that a person can say
So you have many ways, and the best
is to combine between and still follow it
tober to say astaghfirullah.
Brothers and sisters in Islam. This is also
very important
because
if Allah forgives you,
then
you earn Allah's pleasure into the paradise, Right?
That's the equation. That's why we said,
rush to the forgiveness of your Lord then
rush to the paradise
Why is the forgiveness mentioned before the paradise?
Because this is the door is the key
if you're forgiven if you do the deeds
that forgive
Then the doors of the paradise are open
the biggest obstacle the barrier that sits between
you and Allah, azza wa Jal, are your
sins. So if you seek tober and it's
so far, it removes them, and your relationship
with Allah, azza wa Jal, is open.
But so that's done a 100 times at
the yeah. It was even mentioned that Abu
Hurayrah, he's
authentic mentioned in, Al Hillia for Abu Naim,
Abu Horeida used to seek is still far
12,000
times
12,000 times.
And that book there,
Al Khaliyah
for Abu Nain,
If you ever come across it and you
read the narrations in there, you'll be absolutely
shocked.
There are hadith that are authentic. There are
hadith that are weak. But Allah, their hadith
speak about the relationship of the companions with
Taverin and so on and how they had
with the Afghan
from something I came across was Abu Darda
albi Allahu Anhu. We have 40000
times.
And the final discussion we have here, because
these are bigger in count, the other others
were 3, 4 times, 7 times. So these
ones now a 100,
10 times and a 100, a 100, and
so on.
The best is to count with your hand.
Count with your hand. Abullah al Amr, radiAllahu
anhu, was in the term of the he
said,
He used to count at the meaning like
this. He used to do, is to do
I'm not a circle. So he used to
count at the like this.
1, the Abu Dawood, there is an addition,
an authentic addition.
He used to do it with his right
hand.
So the of course, there is no doubt
the very best with all the Afghan when
you're counting to do with your hand and
preferably the right and to do this.
You do the left. No problems.
You do this.
No problems.
And I give you the very best and
most authentic version was like this with the
right hand. You do anything else, no problems.
If used
beads or if you had stones and you
were counting your avgar with stones,
that's also
fine and there is no issue.
But with the mustaha, if someone used it
or even the digital
count, the digital count,
be careful that you don't hang the Masbaha
around your neck or around your hand or
you walk around with it, because then this
could cause
showing off
right
so
do your best to keep it away maybe
in your pocket or something
and don't make a habit out of it.
And if you need it if you need
it, especially when you're counting a 100 times
and you want to keep record and track
of the counting, no problems. Sometimes people like
Abu Horaira. Yeah. One of our macheyikh used
to say if Abu Horaira was authentic 12,000
is still far, then surely he was counting
it with something.
Right?
The problem is to count don't count
the the thing as counting Hasanat.
See, this
they spoke about this counting being disliked.
What they meant is counting it in terms
of Hasanat.
Don't count your Hasanat. The believer should not
count his Hasanat. Hadith.
So long Hadith, he said,
Count your evil deeds, so that you can
do good deeds for them in replacement.
So if you're if you're using it just
to count to keep track of the number
of the times you said it then that
insha Allah Ta'ala should be fine
We do not find any of
saying that this is something that is or
disliked or a dida or something of that
sort.
Now, Wallahu 'alam, this concludes our discussion for
the entire series of the shield, the explanation
of the morning and the evening afkar.
Afghar.
Next trip, if Allah Azawajal will
start with something of a series, something new.
Perhaps,
we'll send around a poll to see
what you favor.
Maybe it could be the Avgar of sleep.
Right since a lot of people say the
Umay is sleeping.
We need to know the afghal before we
sleep.
Maybe it gives us some energy to wake
up inshallah.
We can do the afghar and no, or
we can only do something about a salat,
like the afghar of salat go through the
dhikr of a salat.
Why we say what we say in the
standing position
in the law, in a sujood, in sitting
between the 2 sujood.
There's a very interesting and an amazing discussion
in that. And most definitely most definitely, it
will enhance
your experience and your kushoor in a salat.
So there's more than one ID maybe perhaps
later on inshallah. We'll send the poll out
if you're aware and you see it
Vote and see what you want and then
shall not to Allah will go ahead with
that Allahu Adam jazakkumullahahu
Khayla asking Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to grant
us goodness and to accept from us all
and to enable us
that we remain consistent in his Dhikr. Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala. We will remain grateful to him
and we remain
obedient sleeves of his until the day we
meet him.
