Remembering Allah (Dhikr) brings great benefits, such as spiritual well-being, tranquility and softening of the heart. By Dhikr the Muslim attains great reward by doing a small deed, which is simply moving one’s lips and reciting a few words. Dhikr is required from everyone, and it is encouraged in all circumstances, apart from exceptional situations. The believer who loves Allah and His Messenger, and is certain of the truth of His religion, inevitably remembers Allah all the time. Even if he only recites a little Dhikr, he cannot be a hypocrite, but he is missing out on a great deal of reward.
