Tasbeeh of Honourable Seyyeda Fatima, Peace of God be upon her

By: Professor Tanveer Fatima

Fatima did house work and suffered hardship.

Prophet gave her some words to read, saying that they are better than a servant:
34 times Allahuakbar, 33 times Alhamdolillah, 33 times Subhanallah.

Maulana Hakeem Seyyed Zakir Hussain writes on page 182 of his book Seerat Seyyeda Fatima,

"Some books tells us how Tasbeeh of Fatima was revealed by God. When people wished to marry Fatima, the Prophet replied that this night a star will decend. Fatima will be married to him in whose house the stars lands. This news spread across Medina. Everyone was awake on their roofs. Near the time of dawn, a star was seen coming down towards Earth. When Fatima saw the star, her pure tongue uttered, "God is Great". She continued to utter these words until the star reached the house of Ali and remained there. During this time, her blessed tongue uttered, "Praise be to God". Then the star headed for the Throne of God. At that time, her sacred toungue said, "Glory be to God". In state of decent she said Allahuakbar 34 times. In state of rest, she said Alhamdolillah 33 times. In the state of return, she said Subhanallah 33 times. this action of hers became known as Tasbeeh of Fatima. Infallible guides recommended the people to read the same for Divine Blessings."

Reports tell us that the it was this Tasbeeh of Fatima which God in Quran refers to as great Zikr. Whoever reads it after Salah, they have done plenty of Zikr of God and remembered him much.

Imam Baqir said, whoever reads Fatima's Tasbeeh and then repents to God, then God will forgive his sins. He also said, worhip of God has not been done better than in Fatima's Tasbeeh. If there was greater worship of God than Tasbeeh of Fatima, then Prophet would have given it to Fatima.

Imam Jafar said, whoever reads tasbeeh of Fatima after Salah, will rise as a saved person. Pardise will become necessary for him. He also said, reading Tasbeeh of Fatima after every Salah is better than reading 1000 Sunnah prayers daily.

If you read this Tasbeeh before setting off on a journey, then you will be save from all dangers of the journey.

If you read this Tasbeeh before you go to sleep, then you will be in worhip all night.
