The best of dhikr is ‘La ilaaha illa-llah.'

The best of dhikr is ‘La ilaaha illa-llah.'  The Prophet -- Allah bless and greet him -- said: "Whoever says: there is no god but Allah enters Paradise."  The Prophet -- Allah bless and greet him -- said: "Whoever says there is no god but Allah enters Paradise even if he commits adultery and even if he steals (i.e. even if he commits great sins)."  Sa`id ibn al-Musayyib relates: When the death of Abu Talib approached, Allah's Apostle came to him and said: "Say: La ilaha illallah, a word with which I will be able to negotiate or argue (uhajju) for you in Allah's presence."   `Abd Allah ibn Salam relates: As we were travelling with Allah's Messenger he heard the people asking: "Which action is the best, O Allah's Messenger?" He said: "Belief in Allah, fighting in Allah's way, and pilgrimage that is accepted." After this he heard a call coming from a valley saying: "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah" whereupon he said: "And I bear witness to the same, and I bear witness that no one bears witness to the same except he clears himself of shirk (associating a partner to Allah)."
