Is it permissible to create a program for printing adhkar (supplications), and would repeating the dhikr therein be counted as a thousand good deeds if that is specified?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Merely programming the utterance of "Alhamdulillah" (Praise be to Allah) a thousand times is not considered to have uttered it a thousand times. The prescribed remembrance () involves moving the tongue with the words of the remembrance. Scholars have differed on the condition of oneself hearing it. Furthermore, remembrance by the heart, without the tongue, occurs by allowing the remembrance to pass through the heart and contemplating it.
