The question

Are Tasbeeh, Tahmeed, and other similar acts considered among the charities (sadaqat), like the charity that extinguishes the Lord's wrath, or does the Hadith "Indeed, charity extinguishes the Lord's wrath" speak only of monetary charities?

The answer

No religious text specifies that the charity which appeases the Lord’s wrath must be monetary. However, it is understood from the words of scholars that what is meant is voluntary monetary charity and secret charity. The contains indications that some other acts of worship, such as a man's prayer in the dead of night and fasting, extinguish sin just like charity. Furthermore, the remembrance of Allah Almighty is the best, purest, and highest-ranking of deeds, and it is not unlikely that it could appease Allah’s wrath, but this is from the unseen, about which nothing can be stated without a religious text.
