Is it permissible to repeat a specific remembrance from the morning and evening remembrances a number of times not mentioned in "Hisn Al-Muslim" for the psychological comfort it provides, while adhering to the number of the remaining remembrances? And is it permissible to recite the remembrances from the book "Hisn Al-Muslim," or must they be memorized?
There is no harm in increasing the amount of prescribed dhikr (remembrance of Allah), as long as one does not believe that the increase is a Sunnah. There is also no harm in reading the adhkar (plural of dhikr) from a book, though it is more complete to memorize them and recite them by heart.
