Abdur Rahman ibn Ghanm reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever says ten times before departing the sunset and dawn prayers or moving his feet, ‘There is no God but Allah alone, without any partners, to Him belong the dominion and all praise, all goodness is in His hand, He gives life and causes death, and He has power over all things,’ then ten good deeds will be recorded for him each time, ten bad deeds will be erased, he will be raised by ten degrees, he will be fortified from everything he dislikes and from the accursed Satan. No sin will be allowed to harm him but idolatry. He will be the best of people in deed except for a man who surpasses him by saying it more often than him.”

عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ قَالَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْصَرِفَ وَيَثْنِيَ رِجْلَهُ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْمَغْرِبِ وَالصُّبْحِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ كُتِبَ لَهُ بِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ عَشْرُ حَسَنَاتٍ وَمُحِيَتْ عَنْهُ عَشْرُ سَيِّئَاتٍ وَرُفِعَ لَهُ عَشْرُ دَرَجَاتٍ وَكَانَتْ حِرْزًا مِنْ كُلِّ مَكْرُوهٍ وَحِرْزًا مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ وَلَمْ يَحِلَّ لِذَنْبٍ يُدْرِكُهُ إِلَّا الشِّرْكَ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَفْضَلِ النَّاسِ عَمَلًا إِلَّا رَجُلًا يَفْضُلُهُ يَقُولُ أَفْضَلَ مِمَّا قَالَ
