It is narrated from Sayyidah Umm Hani' bint Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I have grown old and my bones have become weak, so tell me of a deed that will admit me into Paradise." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Well done, well done! You have asked about a great thing! Glorify Allah (say 'Subhan Allah') one hundred times; that is better for you than one hundred slaves whom you set free. And praise Allah (say 'Al-hamdu lillah') one hundred times; that is better for you than one hundred saddled and bridled horses on which you mount (fighters) in the path of Allah. And magnify Allah (say 'Allahu akbar') one hundred times; that is better for you than one hundred garlanded and covered sacrificial camels that you send to the House of Allah (for sacrifice). And say 'La ilaha illa Allah' (There is no god but Allah) one hundred times; that is better for you than everything over which the heavens and the earth cast their shade. And on that day no deed of anyone will be raised up better than what is raised up for you, except one who says the like of what you said or does more."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Ibn Shawdhab except Damrah bin Rabi'ah."
