Once, Prophet Mohammad (Sal-lal-laaho-Alaih-e-W-
sallam), said to Ali (razi-Allaho-anho):
Ali ! Do 5 Works Before Sleeping,
(1) Daily.Give 4000 Dinar Alms/sacrifice (sadqaa) daily before sleeping.
(2) Read whole Qur'aan one time daily before sleeping.
(3) Pay price of Jannah,daily before sleeping.
(4) Make a truce/peace between two fighting men daily before sleeping.
(5) Perform a Hajj daily before sleeping.
Then Ali (razi-Allaho-anho) requested Ya' RasoolAllah
(Sal-lal-laaho-Alaih-e-W-sallam) It is very hard to do how can I'll do all this?
Prophet Mohammad (Sal-lal-laaho-Alaih-e-W'sallam) replied:
(1) Read "Sura-e-Fatiha" 4 times..... Its equal to
sacrifice 4000 dinars.
(2) Read "Sura-e-Ikhlaas" 3 times.... Its equal to read
Quran one time.
(3) Read "Durood-e-Ibrahimi" 10 times..... Its equal to
pay price of Jannah.
(4) Read "Astagfaar" (Astagfaar =Astag firul'lahaa
rabbi min kul'ly zanmbin w'atubu elaihe) 10 times.....
Its equal to make truce/peace between 2 fighting men.
(5) Read "4rth Kalima" 4 times..... Its equal to
perform Hajj.
