=> The Third Kalima
The Third Kalimah has a unique and very interesting story behind it. And i thought about sharing it with everyone.
1st Word "Subhanallah."
It all started before Allah Ta'alah created Adam A.S.
The Angels were trying to move the Arsh (Throne) of Allah Ta'alahbut
it was too heavy and wouldn't budge.
So they asked Almighty Allah for help.
Allah told them to recite "Subhanallah."
The Angels did as they were told and found that
it gave them power and strength and
they were able to move the Arsh.
They liked this so much that
they began constantly hymning "Subhanallah."-
(Glory be to Allah)
2nd Word "Alhmdulillah."
Then Allah created Adam A.S.
When Allah blew life into Adam,
the first thing he did was Sneeze and Say "Alhamdulillah"(All parise be to
Allah)
The angels liked this act so much that
they added this to their parise and glorification of Allah.
Thus the kalimah became "Subhanallah Walhamdulillah"
3rd Word"La illaha illalah."
Hundreds of years passed and the Prophet Nooh A.S. was now on earth.
For nine hundred years he proclaimed the oneness of Allah with the words
"La illaha illalah."(There is none worthy of worhip)
The Angels loved this act so much that
they added this to the kalimah.
Thus, the kalimah now became
"Subhanallah Walhamdulillah Wa La illaha illalah."
4th Word "Allahu Akbar"
The Angels kept repeating this kalimah day and night.
Many centuries passed and the Prophet Ebrahim A.S. (Abraham)was asked by
Almighty Allah to Sacrifice his beloved son Ismaeel A.S.
He was about to Slaughterhis son and
He needed something to give him the courage
he needed to do this difficult deed.
So he recited "Allahu Akbar." (Allah is Great)
The Angels loved this act so much that
they added "Allahu Akbar" to the kalimah.
Thus the kalimah became
"Subhanallah Walhamdulillah Wa La illaha illalah Allahu Akbar."
5th Word
More centuries passed. It was the night of Meraj,
when our Beloved Prophet
Muhammed S.A.W. ascended to the Heavens with Gibraeel A.S.
There Gibraeel A.S. told Nabee S.A.W. the story and
Nabee S.A.W. added the final part of the Kalmiah
"Wala Howla Wa La Quwata Illah Billah Hil Aleyeel Azeem."
Thus the kalimah now became
"Subhanallah Walhamdulillah Wa La illaha illalah Allahu Akbar Wala Howla Wa
La Quwata Illah Billah Hil Aleyeel Azeem"
(There is no Power and Might except from Allah, The Most High, The Great)
Value of 3rd Kalma
And up to this day,
this kalimah (or declaration of faith) buzzes around the Arsh of Almighy
Allah.
Third Kalima is Tumjeed,
this is the Kalima (the first part) that is recited 33 times after each
Farz Namaaz,
and is called "Tasbih Fatima."
Blessing of 3rd Kalma
There is a Hadith that says "3rd Kalima"
is such a great medicine that
it cures every disease and the most minor disease it cures is "Sorrow"
(Gham).
So let's recite this beautiful Kalima and reap it benefits in both the worlds...
Third kalima being:
" Subhaan Allah,
WalHamdo Lillah,
Wa La Illaha IlAllah,
Wa Aallah o Akbar.
Wa Lahoalwalla quwatta illa billah hil Ali il Azeem."
سُبْحَان اللهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلّهِ وَ لآ اِلهَ اِلّا اللّهُ وَ اللّهُ اَكْبَرُ وَلا حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّة ِ الَّا بِاللّهِ الْعَلِىّ الْعَظِيْم
