3413. [Zaid bin Thābit [may Allāh be pleased with him] said: "We were ordered to say the Tasbih at the end of every Salāt thirty-three times, and to say the Takbir thirty-four times." He said: "Then a man from the Anṣār had a dream in which someone said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ordered you to say the Tasbih at the end of every Salāt thirty-three times, and to say the Taḥmīd thirty-three times, and to say the Takbir thirty-four times?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then make them twenty-five and add the Tahlil (Saying Lā Ilāha Illallāh) to them.' The next day he went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him, so he said: "Do it."]

Commentary
Saying the Tahlil; 'Lā Illāha Illallāh' means 'There is none worthy of worship except Allāh'. Keeping in view the meaning and spiritual significance of the Tahlil, the Prophet ﷺ considered it the most superior and most loved statement by Allāh ﷻ therefore, saying of the Tahlil should be made a habit.
