Easy

✦ 'Easy Peasy But Only A Few Do It' ✦

`Abdullah bin `Amr reported that the Prophet - ﷺ - said:

There are two acts that no Muslim worshiper does consistently but that he will enter Jannah. And though they are easy, only few people perform them:

1. After each of the five prayers, say tasbih (SubhanAllaah) ten times, tahmid (Alhamdulillaah) ten times and takbir (Allaahu akbar) ten times. This makes one hundred and fifty (daily extollments) by tongue, and one thousand five hundred (good deeds) in the scale.

2. Upon going to bed, say takbir thirty four times, tahmid thirty three times, and tasbih thirty three times. This makes one hundred extollments by tongue and one thousand good deeds in the scale.

So who among you would commit two thousand five hundred sins in one day (to counter that)?

The Prophet - ﷺ - then added:

"Satan comes to a person while he is ready to sleep, and makes him fall asleep before he finishes saying them; and he comes to him after the prayer and reminds him of something he needs to do instead of saying them."

[Reported by Tirmidhi 3410, Sahih by Albani, Ibn Majah 926, Hasan by Zubair Ali Zai, Abu Dawud 5065, Sahih by Albani, Nasai 1348, Sahih by Albani and Musnad Ahmad 6910, Hasan Isnaad by Shoaib Aranout. - The wording "upon going to bed, say takbir thirty four times, tahmid thirty three times, and tasbih thirty three times" is reported only in Abu Dawud where as rest of the hadith in other books says"when he goes to his bed let him say tasbih, tahmid and takbir 100 times"]
