Assalam Aleikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu,
How are you? I hope ur in the best of health and iman during this Blessed month. I can't blieve how quick the days have gone by now we are in the last 10days of Ramadhan.........and InshaAllah may Allah betow His mercy on us all and always guide us to the straight path way amin. May the seeds that you sow during this blessed month of Ramadhan blossom into a harvest of rightousness for Allah to nurture for you until Qiyamah, amin.
Just a quick email to tell you about Salatul Tasbih for forgiveness of all sins. We all need to pray and ask Allah to forgive us for all our sins everyday, especially during these last few remaining precious days and nights of Ramadhan. We should committ to our ibadaat and pray for forgiveness, for guidance from Allah in everything we do, to giude us all to the straight pathway and to open doors that are kheir for us both here on earth and tomorrow on judgment day. We should pray for all our loved ones, friends and the whole of Jammi Islam.
Please do not feel like am preaching to you bcoz i am not, i am in no position to preach anyone, am merely reminding you and am also reminding myself. We are not perfect so reminding each other helps us increase our ibadaat and increases our iman towards our din and also towards each other. InshaAllah I intend to do my best in these last days and not waste anytime, InshaAllah you do the same. InshaAllah i will not forget you in my dua. Take care and maasalama

Salatul Tasbih
For forgiveness of All Sins
Benefits of Salat-Ul-Tasbih
Our Beloved Prophet Mohammed (Sallallaho Alihiwassallam) said to his uncle (fathers brother) Sayyiduna Abbass (may Allah be pleased with him) Oh uncle shall I not give you Shall I not grant you Shall I not award you Shall I not do mercy on you When you do 10 things Allah will forgive your sins: of the future and of the past; new and old; those you have forgotten and those you did knowingly; big and small; hidden and revealed. Then he (Sallallaho Alihiwassallam) explained the taught the way to pray Salatul Tasbih and then said if you can pray this salah once a day, if you can not pray once a day then every Friday, and even if this is not possible then once a month and even if this is not possible then once a year and even if this is not possible then at least once in a lifetime (AbuDawood & Tirimzi)
How to perform Salatul Tasbih?
This salaat (namaz) is offered in four rakat at a time and can be read in any part of the day and night besides Zawal and Sunrise and Sunset makrooh times, keeping in mind the forbidden times for performing Salat (namaaz). But is is preferred before Zuhr (Fatawa Alamgeeri)
The Tasbih to be read in Salaat-Ul-Tasbeeh:
" Subhaan Allahi Wal Hamdulillahi Wa Laa ilaha illal Laahu Wallahu Akbar "
Method:
Goal is to recite above Tasbih 300 times in Four Rakah with the following method.
Pray four Rakat, in each read al-fatihah, and
another surat
after you finish reciting (in the first rakat) say, while you
are standing:
Say the tasbih (Subhaan Allahi Wal Hamdulillahi....):
15x after reciting surah fatiha and the 2nd surah.
10x during ruku after saying prescribed glorifications=25
10x in Quma (after the ruku) = 35
10x in the 1st sujdah after prescribed glorifications =45
10x in qadah (between the sujood) = 55
10x in 2nd sujdah after prescribed glorifications = 65
10x in sitting position after sajdah before getting up for the second rakah=75
that is 75 in each rakaat, do it in all four rakaat.
Special notes for Salat-Ul-Tasbih:
1) Do not count loudly. It will break Salah
2) Do not count on fingers or by holding a Bead Tasbih in hand. It is Makruh.
3) You may count by pressing the fingers as a reminder. For example if you are in Ruku. You me press pinky of your right hand first for the first count, then the finger next to it for second count, then the middle finger for third count, following this method untill you reach the pinky of left hand will give you an exact count of ten. Use the same method in Qayam, Sajdah and Jalsa.
4) If missed a count then make it up in the next posture. For example if forgot to recite Tasbih after Surah in Qayam. Then you may recite Tasbish 20 times instead of 10 in Rukuh after "Subhaana Rabbiyal Azeem". Missed Tasbih cannot be recited in Qayam after ruku and Jalsa between Sajdah. If you missed the Tasbih in Ruku then recite 20 in the first Sajdah instead of the Qayam after rukuh. Similarly if missed the Tasbih in first Sajdah then do not make it up in Jalsa. Instead recite missed tasbih in the second Sajdah. If Tasbih has been missed in last sajdah of second or fourth Rakah then you can recite the missed ones before Attahiyat in Qaidah.
5) If you miss a wajib in Salah and have to do Sajdah Sahaw. You dont have to recite Tasbih in Sajdah sahoo, since the 300 count has been estalished. But if you had missed Tasbih in any of the postures and remeber it now. Then you may recite the missed Tasbih in Sajdah Sahaw now.
6) It is preferable to recite after Surah Fatiha Sura Takathuur in the first raka, Surah Wal Asr in the second raka, Surah Kaferoon (qul ya aiyuhal Kafiroon) in the third and Surah Akhlas (Qul hu Allah-hu ahd) in the fourth raka. If one does not remember these surah they can recite the ones they prefer.
May Allah accept this dua (supplication) for the sake of the trustworthy PROPHET MOHAMMED (Allahs Grace & Peace be upon him)
