Musnad Ahmad

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to him. He asked, "Are you a resident so that we may treat you well, or are you a traveler so that we may provide you provisions for the journey?" He replied, "I am a traveler." He said, "I will give you such a provision for the journey that if I had found anything better than it, I would have given you that. Once I presented myself before the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, 'O Messenger of Allah! The wealthy have taken both this world and the Hereafter. We also pray and so do they; we also fast and so do they. However, they give charity and we cannot give charity.' The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, 'Shall I not tell you something that if you act upon it, no one before you will surpass you, and no one after you will catch up with you, except someone who does the same as you? After every prayer, say Subhan Allah thirty-three times, Alhamdulillah thirty-three times, and Allahu Akbar thirty-four times.'"
