Question

Is there any authenticity to the following:

Rasulullah Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam is reported to have said, “Whoever recites the following 100 times between Subh Saadiq and Fajr Salaah, wealth shall come to him unwillingly and humbled,

“سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ سُبْحَانَ اللهِ الْعَظِيْمِ اَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ

[Ihya]

Answer

Imaam Ghazaali Rahimahullah has recorded a narration that a person came to Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and complained about poverty. Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam advised him to recite the following Tasbeehaat and Istighfaar 100 times between Subh Saadiq and Fajr Salaah:

The above narration is classified as weak. However, to practice upon it is acceptable since it pertains to Fadhaa’il.

Furthermore, it is mentioned in an authentic narration that Nooh Alaihis Salaam advised his son to recite the following for (increase in) sustenance:

However, there is no specific number (such as reciting it 100 times) mentioned in this narration.
