As Salaamu Alaikum!
Ramadaan is over, but let us not stop ourselves from continuing the good deeds which we had been doing in Ramadaan. We worshipped Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, made Dhikr and fasted for Him, in Ramadaan, but now Ramadaan is over, so do not let your enthusiasm stop here. Do not lose hope or give up on Him! Worship Him and serve Him and Him alone!
Many a times, we have lot of time in our hands, but do not use it efficiently and then we complain that some of our work is remaining due to lack of time. What we need is proper time management. Doing Dhikr too is easy and not difficult as many people think so. There are several good deeds which a person can do in a minute. Let us see what these are:
In Just ONE minute we can recite SubhanAllah around 100 times
In Just ONE minute we can recite Astaghfirullah around 100 times
In Just ONE minute we can recite sallallahu alayhi wasallam (Duroodon the Holy Prophet) around 50 times
In Just ONE minute we can recite SubhanAllah, Alhumdulillah, AllahuAkbar 33,33,34 times respectively before going to sleep.
In Just ONE minute we can recite la ilaha illallah (There is no God but Allah) around 50 times
In Just ONE minute we can recite subhanallahi wabihamdihi around 100 times
In Just ONE minute you can recite this dhikr thrice after fajar salah and can earn and make your scale of good deeds heavier In shaa Allah ..these words are Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi, `adada khalqihi, wa rida nafsihi, wa zinatah `arshihi, wa midada kalimatihi
[ Allah-Jallah jalala hu, is free from imperfection and I begin with His praise, as many times as the number of His creatures, in accordance with His Good Pleasure,
equal to the weight of His Throne and equal to the ink that may be used in recording the words (for His Praise)].''( Muslim)

In Just 6-7 seconds we can recite Dhikr for eternal PEACE in life
‘Astaghfirullaaha (3 times) Allaahumma ‘Antas-Salaamu wa minkas-salaamu, tabaarakta yaa Dhul-Jalaali Wal-’Ikraam
It takes few seconds only to recite Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim before eating drinking or staring any work and Saying Alhumdulillah often.
Multiply your deeds by sharing this with others and by encouraging them Also
Allah says in Quran
Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest(13:28)
We humans crave for peace and tranquility, for care and love , and we try to find them in places where Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) has not kept them , none can give you satisfaction of heart except the remembrance of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) therefore we should keep our tongues moist with the remembrance of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) and this is the only way to stay calm and peaceful in times of difficulties and the Allah's help comes to HIS believing servants who remembers HIM day and night.
Some of the quick and easy deeds which will In shaa Allah bring peace in our lives and Allah will In shaa Allah fulfill all our desires:
- Saying SubhanAllah 100 times removes sins and one earns 1000 deeds just by saying it hundred times,
- Seeking forgiveness from Allah by saying Astaghfirullah makes us one whose duas are answered and according to hadiths Allah makes a wayout for such a slave from every anxiety,
- Sending blessings on Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wassallam) is mentioned in Quran and Hadiths and by reciting them duas are answered and one recives blessings,
- SubhanAllah , Alhumdulillah , AllahuAkbar and la ilaha illallah are four phrases which Allah loves most , and saying the first three 33,33 and 34 times respectively before sleeping and 10 times each after salah is a Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wassallam) , Similarly saying subhanallahi wabihamdihi wipes of sins even if they are like foam of the sea .
Take a few minutes to recite them When you're walking to your home, work or anywhere, maybe you can make use of some time & talk to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala). You could talk to Allah & make dua to Him for you & your loved ones; recite some Quran (even short surahs multiple times); do dhikr (remember Allah) (e.g say "SubhanAllah wa bi hamdihi" (How perfect Allah is & I praise Him)); do istighfar (ask for forgiveness) (e.g say "astaghfir-Allah"). Why not turn make use of this time instead of thinking of some song lyrics or day-dreaming the time away!
Remember Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) often calling out HIS beautiful names Yah Allahu Yah Rehmanu Yah Raheem and sometimes as simple as SubhanAllah, Alhumdulillah, AllahuAkbar ..Praises will go up and blessings will come down In shaa Allah
Dhikr is a guide to excellent character, and a light that keeps us on the path to Paradise.
With Best Wishes
