SubhanAllahi 'adada khalqihi — The Heaviest Tasbih

The Prophet ﷺ left Juwayriyyah making dhikr after Fajr and returned at mid-morning to find her still seated. He told her he had said four phrases three times which, if weighed against everything she had said since morning, would outweigh it (Muslim 2726) — this is that tasbih.

سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ عَدَدَ خَلْقِهِ، وَرِضَا نَفْسِهِ، وَزِنَةَ عَرْشِهِ، وَمِدَادَ كَلِمَاتِهِ

SubhanAllahi wa bihamdihi 'adada khalqihi, wa rida nafsihi, wa zinata 'arshihi, wa midada kalimatihi

Glory and praise be to Allah by the number of His creation, by His own pleasure, by the weight of His Throne, and by the ink of His words.

Virtue and Source

Three repetitions in the morning surpass all other dhikr — Muslim 2726

When to Recite It

Say it three times in the morning. It multiplies glorification by the number of Allah's creation, His pleasure, the weight of His Throne, and the ink of His words — quantities without end.

Count this dhikr daily in Dhikr Garden — every recitation waters a tree in your garden.
