Strengthening the Ummah

Fatima complained about the blisters on her hand because of using a mill-stone. She went to ask the
Prophet for servant, but she did not find him (at home) and had to inform `Aisha of her need. When he
came, `Aisha informed him about it. `Ali added: The Prophet (ﷺ) came to us when we had gone to our
beds. When I was going to get up, he said, "'Stay in your places," and sat between us, till I felt the
coolness of the feet on my chest. The Prophet (ﷺ) then said, "Shall I not tell you of a thing which is better
for you than a servant? When you (both) go to your beds, say 'Allahu Akbar' thirty-three times, and
'Subhan Allah' thirty-three times, 'Al hamdu 'illah' thirty-three times, for that is better for you than a
servant." Ibn Seereen said, "Subhan Allah' (is to be said for) thirty-four times."
