The tasbih after prayer

Thirty-three of each

After the obligatory prayer, a widely reported practice is to say Subḥān Allāh thirty-three times, Al-ḥamdu lillāh thirty-three times and Allāhu akbar thirty-three times.

The hundredth

The hundred is completed by a further formula. In one reported form it is Lā ilāha illā-llāh; in another, Allāhu akbar is said a thirty-fourth time. Choose 34 above for that round.

Thirty-three or ninety-nine beads

A misbaḥa of thirty-three beads is told three times for ninety-nine; a string of ninety-nine is told once. Many people count on the fingers of the right hand instead.

Practice differs between schools and families. Follow the form you were taught; this counter only keeps the number.

Print it
