Question:
Asalamu alaykum Sheikh Gibril Hadad,
My question is, alhamdulila, I’ve read that Hazrath Shah Naqshband radiAllah anh has stated to count the amount of zikr you do. The zikr which I perform is ism Allah hu. But what I wanted to ask is how is this to be counted whilst in tasawar at the same time? In the head or with a tasbeeh? According to the great Sheikh radiAllah anh. Please do dua for isthakamath.
Answer:
Alaykum Salam,
Using a tasbih is OK but if you already know how much time it takes then you can do without the tasbih also. It is up to you.
