What is the reference for the narration which states if you recite ‘Subhanallah’ one hundred times you will get one thousand good deeds?
Answer
Imam Muslim (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith. The full narration is as follows:
Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) once asked the Sahabah, ‘Are you unable to earn one thousand good deeds a day’? Someone said, ‘How can we earn one thousand good deeds a day’? Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) replied, ‘Make one hundred Tasbih [Subhanallah] and one thousand good deeds will be recorded for you or one thousand sins will be erased” [Some versions state, One thousand good deeds will be recorded and one thousand sins erased].
(Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 2698)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
