Assalam alaikum,
In verse 44 of Surat Israa of the Holy Qur'an (17:44) we read of where Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, says:--
"And there is not a thing but celebrates His Praise". Zikr or celebrating Allah's Praise...Remembering Him, begins with all the atraaf: arms, hands, legs, back etc. This is further explained by the Hadith in which Abu Dharr al-Gaffari , may Allah be pleased with him, reported Allah's Apostle, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, as saying:--
"In the morning charity is due from every bone in the body of every one
of you. Every utterance of Allah's Glorification [ tasbihi ] is an act of charity,
every utterance of praise of Him [ tahmid] is an act of charity, every utterance
of His Oneness [tahlil] is an act of charity, every utterance of profession of His
Greatness [takbir] is an act of charity, enjoining good is an act of charity, forbidding
what is disreputable is an act of charity, and two raka'ahs which one prays in the
forenoon will suffice". [Sahih Muslim, Book 4, Hadith No. 1557].
In view of the foregoing, therefore, we should include all these "acts of charity" in our daily Zikr..... mornings and evenings.
