LAA ILAAHA IL ALLAH
“... it is the word of Tawheed, and there is nothing like Tawheed. It is that which differentiates between disbelief and faith. And because it makes one’s mind focus completely on Allah, to the exclusion of all else; and it is more purifying to the soul and cleansing to the heart, and more effective in ridding the nafs of evil and keeping the Shaytaan at bay.” Sheikh Al-Mubaarakfoori rahimahullah
Praise be to Allah
▪️The word of Tawheed (i.e., Laa ilaaha ill-Allah – there is no god but Allah), is the greatest word in existence.▪️For it all of creation was created, the Messengers were sent, and the Books were revealed.▪️It is the word of piety, the foundation of the faith and the pillar of belief, and it is the trustworthy handhold which, whoever grasps it will be saved, and whoever dies believing in it will be blessed with a blessing after which he will never be wretched.▪️The virtues of this word and its place in the religion are far greater than can be described or defined.
✅ It was narrated that Jaabir ibn ‘Abdillah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say: “The best dhikr is Laa ilaaha ill-Allah (there is no god but Allah), and the best du‘aa’ is al-hamdu Lillah (Praise be to Allah).”
[Narrated by at-Tirmidhi (3383) who said: It is hasan ghareeb. Narrated by an-Nasaa’i in as-Sunan al-Kubra (6/208); he included it in a chapter entitled Chapter on the best dhikr and the best du‘aa’. Also narrated by Ibn Hibbaan in his Saheeh (3/126); he included it in a chapter entitled: Statement that praising Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, is one of the best kinds of du‘aa’, and saying Laa ilaaha ill-Allah is one of the best kinds of dhikr. Classed as hasan by al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar in Nataa’ij al-Afkaar (1/63) and by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh at-Tirmidhi.]

▪️Therefore the successful one among the people of this world is the one who frequently recites these words at all times and in all places, and whose tongue and heart never weary of repeating them, remembering their meanings, and bearing in mind their objectives.▪️These words are among the adhkaar concerning which there is no report to say that it is recommended to recite them in a specific place or at a specific time; rather the reports speak in general terms so that the Muslim can utter these words in any situation:
when he is busy and when he has free time,
when he is going to sleep and when he is awake,
when he is at home and when he is travelling,
when praying by day or by night,
When fasting, performing Hajj or ‘umrah,
Whensitting or standing.
when he is going to sleep and when he is awake,
when he is at home and when he is travelling,
when praying by day or by night,
When fasting, performing Hajj or ‘umrah,
Whensitting or standing.
▪️If he can say them with every breath he takes then he will be successful and victorious.
Ibn Hajar al-Haytami (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
The best of the adhkaar for which the Lawgiver did not single out a particular situation or time is reciting Qur’an, followed by the words Laa ilaaha ill-Allah, because of the report which says: “The best dhikr is Laa ilaaha ill-Allah.” End quote.
