Tahlil
Tasbih & Dhikr 100times
Tahlil
لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ
La ilaha illa-llah
There is no deity but Allah.
Plain text (no diacritics)
لا إله إلا الله
Virtue: The best of remembrance.
When is it said?
This dhikr has no fixed time: it is said by night and by day, while walking or waiting or doing anything that does not occupy the heart. The Prophet ﷺ would remember Allah at all his times.
The number attached to it is a deliberate sunnah rather than an approximation. Exceeding it is no sin, and falling short of it forfeits part of what was promised — but keeping steadily to a little is more beloved than a great deal that stops.
