attaining Jannah. Recite the tasbih continuously. Do not stop or pause in the middle of it.”

Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (a) is reported to have said, “There is no praise of 
Allah (swt) better than the tasbih of Janabe 
Fatimah (sa) because if there was, then the Prophet (saww) would have taught that to his daughter.”
When one says “Allahu Akbar” he has proclaimed the greatness of Allah (swt) as all power and might belongs to Allah! When one says “Alhamdulillah” 
he has thanked Allah (swt) for each and every blessing he has been blessed with. When one 
says "Subhanallah" he has proclaimed the lofty greatness of Allah and His being free of any 
partner. Whenever a servant utters 
this, the angels send salutations upon him.
