It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! The wealthy people have taken all the rewards; they pray as we pray, and they fast as we fast, but they give charity from their surplus wealth, and we have nothing to give in charity. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Shall I not tell you of an action, that if you adhere to it, you will catch up with those who have surpassed you (in reward), and no one will reach your rank except one who does the same as you?” Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! Do tell me of such an action. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (that action is): After every prayer, say «سبحان الله» thirty-three times, and say «الحمد لله» thirty-three times, and say «الله اكبر» thirty-three times, and complete one hundred with «لَاإِلٰهَإِلَّااللّٰهُوَحْدَهُلَاشَرِيْكَلَهُ،لَهُالْمُلْكُوَلَهُالْحَمْدُوَهُوَعَلَىٰكُلِّشَيْيءٍقَدِيْر» at the end.

Brief Explanation
(Commentary on Hadith 1390)
It is narrated in Sahih Muslim that when the people heard this, both the rich and the poor began to do the same. The poor among the Muhajirun then came to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Our wealthy brothers, upon hearing this, have also started to do the same deeds. So the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: «ذٰلِكَفَضْلُاللّٰهِ , يُؤْتِيْهِمَنْيَّشَاءُ.» "This is the bounty of Allah; He bestows it upon whom He wills."
