            Glorification
          
          
            Salat Tasbeeh
          
        
                Ibn Abbas reported that the Prophet (Sal-allahu-aleihi-wasallam) said to Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib:
              
              
                "O Abbas, my uncle! Shall I not make
                a present to you ? Shall I not make a gift to you ? Shall I not infrom you ? Shall I not
                produce in you ten virtues when you will do that, Allah will forgive your sins, its first
                and its last, its past and its present, its involuntary and its voluntary, its small and
                its great, its secret and its open. 
              
              
                (That is): You should pray four (4) rakats reading in each
                rakat the Opening of the Book (Sura Fatiha) and a sura.
              
              
                When you become free from reading in the first rakat while
                you are standing, you shall utter 15 times "Subhan Allah-e-Wa-Al
                Hamd-o-lillah-e-Wala-Ilaha-Ilallaho-Wallaho-Akbar" [Glory to be Allah and
                All Praise is for Allah and There is no deity but Allah and Allah is the Greatest];
              
              
                then you shall bow down and utter it 10 times while you
                are in bowing;
              
              
                next you shall raise up your head from bowing and utter it
                10 times;
              
              
                next you shall prostrate down and utter it 10 times while
                you are in prostration;
              
              
                next you shall raise up your head from prostration and
                utter it 10 times;
              
              
                next you shall prostrate down again and utter it 10 times
                in prostration;
              
              
                next you shall raise up your head and utter it ten times. 
              
              
                And that will be 75 times in each rakat. You shall do it
                in the four rakats.
              
              
                If you are able to pray it once in every day, do so; and
                if you are unable to do so then once in every week; if you are (still) unable to do so,
                then once in every month; if you are still unable to do so them once in a year; if you are
                (still) unable to do so, then once in your life.
