Is repeating the remembrance, "Subhan Allah wa bihamdih, adada khalqih, wa zinata arshih, wa midada kalimatih" (Glorified is Allah and praised is He, by the number of His creation, by the weight of His Throne, and by the extent of His words) several times throughout the day and night considered an innovation, given that it is among the morning and evening remembrances?
There is no harm in repeating the "Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi, adada khalqihi, wa zinata arshihi, wa midada kalimatihi" (Glory be to Allah and praise be to Him, as numerous as His creation, as weighty as His Throne, and as extensive as His words) throughout the day. Allah the Almighty has commanded abundant remembrance (dhikr), and prophetic hadiths have encouraged it. Among them is the saying of the Prophet (peace be upon him): "Let your tongue remain moist with the remembrance of Allah." And his saying (peace be upon him): "Whoever says in the morning and in the evening: 'Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi' (Glory be to Allah and praise be to Him) a hundred times, no one will come on the Day of Judgment with anything better than what he brought, except someone who said the same as he said, or added to it." Thus, increasing in dhikr brings additional reward and recompense.
