The Virtue of Remembrance​


Allah has commanded the remembrancers:
﴿أَلَا بِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ تَطْمَئِنُّ الْقُلُوبُ﴾ ‎
"Indeed, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest."
Reference: (13-Al-Ra'd:28)

And the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
"The example of the one who remembers his Lord and the one who does not is like the living and the dead."
Reference: Sahih Bukhari, Book of Supplications, No: 6308.

Allah Almighty says:
﴿يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ ذِكْرًا كَثِيرًا﴾
"O you who have believed, remember Allah with much remembrance."
Reference: (33-Al-Ahzab:41)

And He further said:
﴿وَالذَّاكِرِينَ اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا وَالذَّاكِرَاتِ أَعَدَّ اللَّهُ لَهُم مَّغْفِرَةً وَأَجْرًا عَظِيمًا .﴾
"And the men who remember Allah often and the women who do so - for them Allah has prepared forgiveness and a great reward."
Reference: (33-Al-Ahzab:35)
