<strong>The</strong> Prophet <strong>of</strong> <strong>Al</strong>lah said, “ When the sanctfier says ‘Subhan <strong>Al</strong>lah’, then the angels<br />

under the Firmament too will repeat ‘Subhan <strong>Al</strong>lah’. And the reciter will get ten times<br />

more reward. When the person says’<strong>Al</strong>hamdu lillah’, then <strong>Al</strong>lah rewards him with the<br />

world and the Hereafter. <strong>The</strong>se are the words that will be on the mouth <strong>of</strong> the people who<br />

enter the precincts <strong>of</strong> the Heaven because they used to recite the same words while on the<br />

earth. When the person says, ‘La ilaha il <strong>Al</strong>lah’, <strong>Al</strong>lah orders awarding to him a place<br />

in the Heaven for uttering these words, because ‘Hal jazaal ehsan illal ehsaan’.<br />

When the Jewish scholar heard this, he said, “ O Mohammed! You tell the<br />

truth!”<br />

• Hazrat Ameer al Momineen (a.s.) said, “ A group <strong>of</strong> beggars came to the Prophet<br />

<strong>of</strong> Islam (a.s.) and said, ‘ Ya Rasool <strong>Al</strong>lah (a.s.)! <strong>The</strong> affluent have money and<br />

they can perform the Haj. We don’t have the means to fulfill this important tenet!<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have slaves, whom they can free to earn <strong>Al</strong>lah’s goodwill. We can’t do that.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have wealth that they can do charity. We cannot be charitable! <strong>The</strong>y can go<br />

for Jehad, we cannot do that!’ <strong>The</strong> Prophet <strong>of</strong> Islam (a.s.) replied,’ One who<br />

repeats the words “ <strong>Al</strong>laho Akbar” a hundred times, he will get the reward<br />

equal to that for releasing a hundred slaves. One who repeats the words “Subhan<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah” a hundred times he will get the reward for a Haj in which a hundred<br />

camels had been <strong>of</strong>fered as sacrifice by him.. One who repeats the words “<strong>Al</strong><br />

hamdu Lillah” a hundred times, he will get the reward for a Jehad for which he<br />

had donated a hundred steeds.. When a person repeats the words ‘La ilaha il<br />

<strong>Al</strong>lah” a hundred times, the reward will be the maximum.’ This news reached the<br />

affluent people and they too started reciting the words. <strong>The</strong> beggars came back to<br />

the Prophet (a.s) and said, “ O Prophet <strong>of</strong> <strong>Al</strong>lah! <strong>The</strong> rich too have started doing<br />

the same as you have asked us to do!’ <strong>The</strong> Prophet (a.s) replied, ‘ This is <strong>Al</strong>lahs<br />

Bounty! He can give to whoever He wishes to !’”<br />

• Imam Reza (a.s.) has said, “ One who recites a hundred times each <strong>of</strong> the<br />

following words,’ <strong>Al</strong>hamdulillah’ ‘Subhan <strong>Al</strong>lah’ ‘La ilaha il <strong>Al</strong>lah’ and<br />

says the Durood ‘<strong>Al</strong>lahu ma salle ala Mohammedin wa aale Mohammed’<br />

a hundred times, and later on says ‘ <strong>Al</strong>la humma zawwijni min al hoor il<br />

ain’, <strong>Al</strong>lah will grant him the Hoor al <strong>Ain</strong> in the Heaven. <strong>The</strong>se five hundred<br />

words will be the Mehr (alimony) for the Hoor al <strong>Ain</strong>. This is the reason why 500<br />

Deenar is fixed as the alimony for the momina women!”<br />

THE REWARD FOR TAHLEEL OR DECLARATION OF ALLAH’S<br />

UNITY<br />

<strong>The</strong> Prophet <strong>of</strong> Islam (a.s.) has said, “ <strong>Al</strong>lah told to Hazrat Moosa (a.s.) that if<br />

whatever is there on the earth and the sky is put in one pan <strong>of</strong> a balance and in the<br />

other the words ’La ilaha il <strong>Al</strong>lah’ are put, the pan in which these words are put
