Chapters on Supplication

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ جُرَىٍّ النَّهْدِيِّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ قَالَ عَدَّهُنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي يَدِي أَوْ فِي يَدِهِ ‏ "‏ التَّسْبِيحُ نِصْفُ الْمِيزَانِ وَالْحَمْدُ يَمْلَؤُهُ وَالتَّكْبِيرُ يَمْلأُ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ وَالصَّوْمُ نِصْفُ الصَّبْرِ وَالطُّهُورُ نِصْفُ الإِيمَانِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ وَسُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ‏.‏
“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) counted them out in my hand” - or - “in his hand: ‘At-Tasbīḥ is half of the Scale, and “All praise is due to Allah (Al-Ḥamdulillāh)” fills it, and At-Takbīr (Allāhu Akbar) fills what is between the sky and the earth, and fasting is half of patience, and purification is half of faith.”
Narrated by A man from Banu Sulaim narrated:

Context

The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) shares profound insights about the significance of various acts of worship. He describes *Tasbih* (glorification of Allah) as half of the scale of deeds, while *Hamd* (praise) fills it, and *Takbir* (exaltation) fills the space between the heavens and the earth. This hadith highlights the value of these acts in strengthening one's faith and character.

Modern Application

In our daily routines, incorporating *Tasbih*, *Hamd*, and *Takbir* can enhance our spiritual awareness and connection to Allah. These practices can serve as reminders to remain grateful and focused on our faith amidst life's distractions.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Spiritual Purity because it emphasizes the importance of specific acts of worship that contribute to one's spiritual growth and purification.
