2. In one minute you can recite Surah al-Ikhlas (Qul Huwa Allaahu Ahad) 20 times, reciting rapidly (yet clearly) - silently or aloud. Reciting it once is equivalent to one-third of The Qur’an. The rewards for this are well-known.

4. You can memorize a short Aayah from The Qur’an in one minute.


5. In one minute you can say Laa ilaaha ill-Allah wahdahu laa shareeka lah, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadeer (There is no god except ALLAH (SWT) alone with no partner; to Him be dominion and praise, and He is Able to do all things) – 20 times.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH (SWT) be upon him) said:”When I say ‘Subhaan-Allaah wa’l-hamdu Lillah, wa laa ilaah ill-Allaah,wa-allahu akbar (Glory be to ALLAH (SWT), praise be to ALLAH (SWT), there is no god except ALLAH (SWT), and ALLAH (SWT) is Most Great)’, this is more beloved to me than all that the sun rises upon.” (Narrated in Muslim). In one minute, you can say all of these words more than 18 times. These words are the most beloved words to ALLAH (SWT), the best of words, and they weigh heavily in the balance of good deeds, as was narrated in the saheeh ahaadeeth.
