Are the rewards for the praises, "Subhan Allah rida nafsihi" (Glory be to Allah, to the extent of His pleasure) and "Subhan Allah midada kalimatihi" (Glory be to Allah, to the extent of the ink of His words), considered ongoing good deeds that do not cease for their doer in his grave?
This remembrance is of great reward, but it has not been reported that its reward is continuous. Commentators on the have explained that its meaning is that Allah deserves glorification equal to the number of all that has been mentioned, and to the utmost extent of His greatness, and that His pleasure is uninterrupted. This is a representation to simplify the meaning, and the hadith is evidence of the virtue of these words and that their reciter attains the merit of repetition. These virtues are for all those who remember Allah, but some scholars believe that they are for people of virtue and purity from grave sins, and not for those who insist on indulging in desires and violating sacred limits, because Allah says: ﴿Or do those who commit evil deeds think that We will make them like those who have believed and done righteous deeds?﴾
