How sound is the statement that publishing (There is no god but You; glory be to You, indeed I have been of the wrongdoers) earns its publisher thirty thousand good deeds?
There is no textual religious evidence that specifies a certain number of good deeds (hasanat) for reciting "Lā ilāha illā Anta, Subḥānaka innī kuntu minaẓ-ẓālimīn (There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers)." Such a specification depends on revelation, and it has not been mentioned in the Qur'an or authentic . However, great virtues have been reported for this remembrance, as the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The supplication of Dhul-Nun (Jonah) when he supplicated while he was in the belly of the whale: 'There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers.' For indeed, no Muslim man ever supplicates with it for anything but Allah responds to him."
