Recitation ( Zikir ) with Sound Recording


By: Helmi Junaidi


Sufism has a practice of recitation (zikir) of God names by hundreds or even thousands of times. There are many benefits of it. Unfortunately, the large number we must recite everyday prevents us from practicing it routinely. Because it would be very tiresome.

For alternative with not much different result, we can recite it only three times. Record your voice with your phone.  It must be your own voice.  Then play it repeatedly over and over again for two or three hours everyday, and it will surely reach  thousands times. The longer the better. The energy it generated is similar to ordinary recitation (not recorded). And the positive energy from the recitation can influence your body energy and your aura. It is true.  I am a reiki practitioner and I can feel the invisible energy. You can ask other reiki practitioners who you know to feel the zikir energy.

This practice is very very easy. You may believe it or not, but this practice is very easy. So, better you try it. Just record your voice, only need a few seconds, and play it repeatedly over and over again, for about three or four hours. Very easy. It will not hurt to try, right? You also can play it while you are sleeping. And stop it when you wake up in the morning. And it will reach many thousands times. And you must do it everyday. Don't play it loudly because it can disturb other people around you. It is enough if only you that can hear it. Try to do it routinely for one or two weeks and notice the result. In fact, I myself got the result in just a few days. It can help your everyday life, including improve your business or finance, relationship with your family or other people, or whatever you want. It depend on which names you recite. There are 99 of God names and you can choose which you want. Beside it is good for your own benefit in your everyday life, it also can draw us closer to God as stated in al-Baqarah 152, Remember Me (recite my names), and surely I will remember you.

Each zikir (recitation) should be preceded by subhanallah and it must be odd in number, such as below:

سبحان الله يا حي يا قيوم يا عفو يا عظيم

Subhaanallah, yaa hayyu, yaa qoyyuum, yaa 'afuwwu, yaa' adziim. 3x

or: subhaanallah, yaa hayyu, yaa qoyyum, yaa ghoniyyu, yaa mughnii. 3x

There are 99 God Names, the description and benefit of them you can see at this link. Feel free to choose the Names you want -> The names of God with meaning and benefits. If you still don't know which names, you can recite two examples above. They have good results.

Good luck and hopefully useful. Share it also to your friends and relatives so that they all can get the benefit. Amiien.
