The Virtues of Emphatic Remembrance


Understanding Virtue through the Prophetic Teachings (Lesson Thirty-Two):

In this lesson, Shaykh Faraz discusses the reward and power of tasbih through emphatic remembrance so that it assists us in rising in rank with Allah (The Most Exalted). Safiyya relates (Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered while she was sitting engaged in magnification (tasbih) of Allah with four thousand date-pits. He said, “You were making tasbih with these? Should I not teach you something more than that you have made tasbih with?” I said: Teach me. He replied (peace and blessings be upon him), “Say: Subhan Allahi `adada khalqihi (‘Glory be to Allah by the number of His creation’).” [Tirmidhi (3549)]
