the Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever states in the marketplace: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Allah, Alone, without partner, to Him belongs the dominion, and to Him is all the praise, He gives life and causes death, and He is Living and does not die, in His Hand is the good, and He has power over all things, (La Ilaha Illallah, Wahdahu La Sharika Lahu, Lahul-Mulku Wa Lahul-Hamdu,Yuhyi Wa Yumitu, Wa Huwa Hayyun La Yamutu, Biyadihil-Khairu, Wa Huwa Ala Kulli Shai’in Qadir)’ Allah shall record a million good deeds for him, wipe a million evil deeds away from him, and build a house in Paradise for him.

the Prophet said: “Whoever says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Allah, and Allah is the Greatest, (La Ilaha Illallah, Wa Allahu Akbar)’ His Lord affirms his statement and says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Me, and I am the Greatest,’ and when he say: ‘There is none worthy of worship except for Allah, Alone, (La Ilaha Illallah, Wahdahu)’ Allah says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except for Me and I am Alone.’ And when he say: ‘There is none worthy of worship except for Allah, Alone, without partner, (La Ilaha Illallah, Wahdahu La Sharika Lahu)’ Allah says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Me, Alone, I have no partner.’ And when he say: ‘There is none worthy of worship except for Allah, to Him belongs all that exists, and to Him is the praise, (La Ilaha Illallah, Lahul-Mulku Wa Lahul-Hamdu)’ Allah says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Me, to Me belongs all that exists, and to Me is the praise.’ And when he says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Allah, and there is no might or power except by Allah, (La Ilaha Illallah, Wa La Hawla Wa La Quwwata Illa Billah)’ Allah says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Me, and there is no might or power except by Me.’” And he used to say: “Whoever says it in his illness, then dies, the Fire shall not consume him.”

The Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever sees a person afflicted and say: ‘All praise is due to Allah Who saved me from that which He has afflicted you with, and blessed me greatly over many of those whom He has created, (Al-Hamdulillahi Alladhi Afani Mimmabtalaka Bihi Wa Faddalani Ala Kathirin Mimman Khalaqa Tafdila)’ then he shall be saved from that affliction for as long as he lives.”

The Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever sees an afflicted person then says: ‘All praise is due to Allah who saved me from that which He has afflicted you with, and blessed me greatly over many of those whom He has created, (Al-Hamdulillahi Alladhi Afani Mimmabtalaka Bihi Wa Faddalani Ala Kathirin Mimman Khalaqa Tafdila)’ he shall not be struck by that affliction.”

The Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever sits in a sitting and engages in much empty, meaningless speech and then says before getting from that sitting of his: ‘Glory is to You, O Allah, and praise, I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except You, I seek You forgiveness, and I repent to You, (Subhanaka Allahumma Wa Bihamdika Wa Ashhadu An La Ilaha Illa Anta, Astaghfiruka Wa Atubu Ilaik)’ whatever occurred in that sitting would be forgiven to him.”
