Imagine your sins being forgiven by reciting Subhanallahi Wa Bihamdihi 100 times a day, it feels so comforting, isn’t it? While performing the obligatory prayers and Qur’an recitation, there are plenty of other ways to remember Allah and earn rewards on the regular basis. Recitation of this Tasbih is one of those best ways.
While we get overwhelmed with job/business, studies, or other work, it’s sometimes hard for us to get ourselves involved in Dhikr (although this shouldn’t be an excuse). One of the best ways to increase good deeds by remembering Allah every day is to recite Subhanallahi Wa Bihamdihi.
These words are short and easy to say, yet the reward of reciting these words is tremendous.
Subhanallahi Wa Bihamdihi is the most loved expression by Allah. A hadith from Muslim regarding this has been mentioned below:
Abu Dharr (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me, “Shall I tell you the expression that is most loved by Allah?” It is ‘Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi’ (Allah is free from imperfection and His is the praise)’.”
[Muslim]
It hardly takes 3-4 minutes to recite 100 times. Just a few mins of your precious time can take you closer to Allah (SWT) and your sins being forgiven, Subhan’Allah.

Hadith on Reciting Subhanallahi Wa Bihamdihi 100 Times a Day & Benefits
Below are some of the Hadiths that show us how important and beneficial it is to recite this beautiful phrase.
Benefit No. 1
It is the means to get sins forgiven, no matter what quantity.
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Whoever says, ‘Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi,’ one hundred times a day, will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea. [Sahih al-Bukhari 6405]
Reciting Subhanallahi Wa Bihamdihi not only erases the sins but also increases the rewards abundantly, it is a two-way benefit. We don’t really know how many sins we make each day, knowingly or unknowingly. However, this is the best opportunity to get those sins forgiven by just reciting subhanallahi wa bihamdihi subhanallahil azeem.
Allah (SWT) has bestowed us with this fantastic opportunity, we must make the best use of this by reciting frequently.
Benefit No. 2
The phrase subhanallahi wa bihamdihi subhanallahil azeem is most beloved to Allah (SWT). These words are easy to recite and are heavy on the scale.
Narrated by Abu Huraira (R.A) that:
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “(The following are) two words (sentences or utterances) that are very easy for the tongue to say, and very heavy in the balance (of reward), and most beloved to the Gracious Almighty (And they are): Subhan Allahi wa bi-hamdihi; Subhan Allahi-l-‘Adhim.” [Sahih al-Bukhari 6682]
Undoubtedly, the benefits of reciting these words are innumerable. I strongly recommend memorizing these words along with the meaning for a better understanding. This way, we can recite these words by heart (saying these words with good intention is necessary). Expressing these words frequently leads to forgiveness of sins, an increase in rewards, barakah in Rizq, and getting closer to Allah (SWT).
We all want to make our scales heavier on the day of judgment, isn’t it? Let’s grasp a few minutes of our precious time every day to recite subhanallahi wa bihamdihi subhanallahil azeem which can increase the number of good deeds and make our hereafter life better.
