It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the poor among the Muslims mentioned (to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)) their deprivation of the virtues which their wealthy people had attained (because of their abundant wealth). They said: "O Messenger of Allah! These are our brothers; they believed as we believed, prayed as we pray and fasted as we fast, but because of their wealth they have this superiority over us: they give charity and maintain the ties of kinship, while we are destitute and do not have the financial means for these good deeds." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not tell you of something which, if you act upon it, you will attain their virtue? After every prayer say 'Allahu akbar' (Allah is the Greatest) eleven times, 'al-hamdu lillah' (all praise belongs to Allah alone) eleven times, 'Subhan Allah' (Allah is free of all imperfection) eleven times, and 'La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lah' (there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, He is alone and has no partner) eleven times; you will attain the like of their virtue." Then this reached the wealthy, and they too began to do just as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had ordered (the poor). So they (the poor) came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) (again) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Our (wealthy) brothers are also reciting the same as we recite." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is the bounty of Allah; He gives it to whomever He wills. O company of the poor! Shall I not give you glad tidings? Indeed, the poor among the believers will enter Paradise half a day, that is, five hundred years, before their wealthy."
Al-Bazzar mentioned this report by way of al-Walid bin Amr bin al-Sakan, Muhammad bin al-Zibriqan and Musa bin Ubaydah, and it contains the addition that Musa recited this verse: "And indeed, a day with your Lord is like a thousand years of what you count" [Surah al-Hajj: 47]. Al-Bazzar said: We know this report only through this chain, and its hidden defect ('illah) is Musa bin Ubaydah (being da'if). Ibn Majah narrated part of this hadith in the Book of Zuhd.
