How to Use
1. Choose Your Dhikr
Select from a list of daily remembrances — Subhanallah, Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha illallah, and more — using the Dhikr selector at the top.

3. Start Counting
Tap anywhere on the counter circle each time you recite. The progress ring fills as you get closer to your target, and the number updates instantly.

When you reach your target, the counter marks a completed round and resets — so you can keep going without losing track of your progress for the day.
5. Customize Your Experience
Open Settings to turn on haptic feedback (vibration on tap), a soft tap sound, or a translation line beneath the Arabic text — whatever helps you focus best.
6. Go Fullscreen
Tap the fullscreen icon for a distraction-free counting view with a larger tap area — ideal for focused dhikr sessions after Namaz.
Virtues & Benefits of Daily Dhikr
A Direct Command in the Quran
Allah instructs believers to remember Him often, in the morning and evening, standing, sitting, and lying down — dhikr is not a one-time act but a continuous state of the heart.
A Source of Peace
The Quran describes the remembrance of Allah as what brings true tranquility to the heart — a stillness that worldly things alone cannot provide.
Light Words, Heavy on the Scale
Simple phrases like Subhanallah and Alhamdulillah are described in the hadith as light on the tongue but extremely weighty in reward on the Day of Judgment.
A Shield for the Heart
Regular dhikr is described as protection against heedlessness (ghaflah) — the slow drifting away from Allah that happens when the heart grows distracted by worldly life.
Available to Everyone, Anytime
Unlike wealth-based charity, dhikr costs nothing and requires no special conditions — it can be done while walking, commuting, waiting, or resting, making consistency achievable for anyone.
Everyday Benefits
Beyond the spiritual reward, many people find that a regular dhikr practice brings a calmer mind, a steadier mood through the day, and a simple anchor of mindfulness between daily tasks.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Tasbeeh?
Tasbeeh refers to the practice of glorifying Allah through short phrases of remembrance, traditionally counted on prayer beads (misbaha) or, today, with a digital counter like this one.
Do I need wudu (ablution) to do dhikr?
No. Dhikr can be recited at any time, in any state — you do not need to be in wudu to remember Allah.
What is the best time to do Tasbeeh?
Many people recite dhikr right after the five daily Namazs, but it can be done at any time — morning, evening, while commuting, or before sleeping.
How many times should I recite Subhanallah, Alhamdulillah, and Allahu Akbar?
A common practice is 33 times each after every Namaz, though many increase this to 100 or more outside of prayer times.
Can I use a phone app instead of a physical tasbeeh (prayer beads)?
Yes. A digital counter serves the same purpose as prayer beads — it's simply a tool to help you count accurately and stay focused on the remembrance itself.
What does "round" mean in the counter?
A round is completed each time you reach your chosen target count. The app tracks how many rounds you've completed so you can see your consistency over time.
Should I recite dhikr silently or aloud?
Either is acceptable. Many scholars note that a quiet, unhurried recitation with presence of heart is more valuable than a loud but distracted one.
Which Dhikr should a beginner start with?
Subhanallah, Alhamdulillah, and Allahu Akbar are the most commonly recommended starting point, as they are simple, well-known, and mentioned frequently in the Sunnah.
