Brothers and sisters in Islam,

                                   How  do  we  perform  dhikr?  The  best  dhikr  is  reading  Qur’an
                              with understanding the meaning. We can read Quran everyday, after

                              obligatory  prayer.  Daily  recitation  of  Holy  Quran  brings  great
                              rewards from Allah Almighty. The habit of reading Quran everyday

                              will keep our heart in peaceful condition.

                                   We can also perform dhikr by uttering specified  Adhkar after
                              prayer  five  times  a  day.  The  Prophet  Muhammad  said,  “He  who

                              recites  after  every  prayer:  Subhan-Allah  (Allah  is  free  from
                              imperfection) 33 times; Al-hamdu lillah (praise be to Allah) 33 times;

                              Allahu Akbar (Allah is Greatest) 33; and completes the hundred with:
                              La ilaha illallahu, wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-

                              hamdu, wa Huwa ‘ala kulli shai’in Qadir (there is no true god except

                              Allah.  He  is  One  and  He  has  no  partner  with  Him.  His  is  the
                              sovereignty and His is the praise, and He is Omnipotent), will have all

                              his  sins pardoned  even if they may be as large  as the foam  on the
                              surface of the sea.” (Muslim)

                                   Brothers and sisters rahimakumullah....

                                   Why  must  we  perform  dhikr  everyday?    By  praising  and
                              glorifying Allah Almighty we are showing our gratitude to Him and

                              recognizing  His  nobility.  We  are  accepting  that  we  have  no  power
                              without Him, as He has power over all things. It is only with the help

                              and will of Allah (SWT) that we can achieve things in our lives.

                                   By performing dhikr regularly in our day we will find that we
                              feel  more connected to  Allah  ,  which is a great feeling. The act  of

                              dhikr  has  an  instant  calming  feeling  over  our  mind  and  body,  and
                              removes  negative  thinking  from  our  mind.  The  more  we  practice
