The Wonders of Tasbih...



Someone came to Prophet Muhammad S.A.W and asked, "O Messenger of God, I am finding that all these different rules of the religion are too difficult. Please give me something easy that I may accomplish."

The Prophet Muhammad S.A.W answered, "Make your tongue moist with the remembrance of God."

One of my interest is Dhikr(Remembrance of Allah).
Tasbih or prayer beads (Subha) has been my companion since I was 4 till today and hopefully to my grave.
To others, tasbih is just used for counting dhikr, in many Muslim countries, men carry short bead strings to fiddle with, as decorative pieces, meditation and also to find peace. But for me, carrying a tasbih or prayer beads is more than that....
