Dhikr is a light for the heart and a shield against heedlessness. Every whisper of SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, La ilaha illa Allah, Allahu Akbar polishes the soul, drawing it closer to Allah. In this blessed month, let our tongues be moist with His remembrance, for a heart filled with dhikr is a heart at peace.
