´Mus`ab bin Sa`d narrated from his father, that :` the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to those sitting with him: “Is one of you incapable of attaining a thousand good deeds?” So a questioner among those seated with him asked him: “How can one of us earn a thousand good deeds?” He said: “(When) one of you recites a hundred Tasbīḥāt a thousand good deeds are written for him, and a thousand evil deeds are wiped away from him.”

In this hadith, the virtue of saying "Subhan Allah" and "Allahu Akbar" is being mentioned. From this hadith, it is understood that by saying "Subhan Allah" one hundred times or "Allahu Akbar" one hundred times, one receives a thousand good deeds. It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Malik Ash'ari radi Allahu anhu that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: Purity is half of faith, and "Alhamdulillah" fills the scale, and saying "Subhan Allah walhamdulillah" fills the scale, or he said: fills what is between the heavens and the earth. (Sahih Muslim: 223)
In the explanation of this hadith, the Qur'an commentator Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf rahimahullah writes: Also, the virtues and reward of the aforementioned remembrances (adhkar) are mentioned, that if these words were given a physical form, the scale would fill the distance between the heavens and the earth. This, in fact, is a description of the vastness of Allah Ta'ala's grace and bounty and His boundless mercy. (Riyadh as-Salihin: 2/342)
