Abu ‘Ayyash reported God's messenger as saying that if anyone says in the morning,“There is no god but God alone who has no partner; to Him belongs the dominion, to Him praise is due, and He is omnipotent,”he will have a reward equivalent to that for setting free a slave from among the descendants of Ishmael, will have ten good deeds recorded for him, will have ten evil deeds deducted from him, will be advanced ten degrees, and will be guarded from the devil till the evening. If he says them in the evening he will have a similar recompense till the morning. Hammad b. Salama said that a man saw God’s messenger in a dream and said,“Messenger of God, Abu ‘Ayyash is relating such and such on your authority,”to which he received the reply,“Abu ‘Ayyash has spoken the truth.”Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah transmitted it.
