Step 1: Make the Intention (Niyyah)

  • Begin by making a sincere intention to perform Salat ut-Tasbih for the sake of seeking forgiveness and drawing closer to Allah.

Step 2: Begin the Prayer

  1. Start with Sanaa:
    Recite “Subhanak Allahumma wa bihamdika, wa tabaarak asmu-ka, wa ta’ala jaddu-ka, wa la ilaaha ghayruk” (سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ وَتَبَارَكَ أَسْمُكَ وَتَعَالىٰ جَدُّكَ وَلا إِلٰهَ غَيْرُكَ)
    Then, recite the Tasbih “Subhanallahi wal hamdulillahi wa la ilaha illallahu wallahu akbar” (سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَلا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ) 15 times.
  2. Recite Surah Al-Fatiha:
    Recite Surah Al-Fatiha (الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَـٰلَمِينَ) followed by another Surah (preferably a short Surah from the Qur’an) before going into Ruku.

Step 3: Perform Ruku (Bowing)

  • After reciting Surah Al-Fatiha and the second Surah, proceed into Ruku (bowing position).
  • While in Ruku, recite “Subhana Rabbiyal Azeem” (سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْعَظِيمِ) 10 times.

Step 4: Stand from Ruku

  • After standing up from Ruku (Qawmah), recite “Sami’ Allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana lakal hamd” (سَمِعَ اللَّهُ لِمَنْ حَمِدَهُ رَبَّنَا لَكَ الْحَمْدُ)
    Then recite the Tasbih “Subhanallahi wal hamdulillahi wa la ilaha illallahu wallahu akbar” 10 times.

Step 5: Perform Sujood (Prostration)

  • In Sujood, recite “Subhana Rabbiyal A’la” (سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى) 10 times.

  • After the first Sujood, sit in Jalsa and recite the Tasbih 10 times.

Step 7: Second Sujood

  • Perform the second Sujood and recite “Subhana Rabbiyal A’la” (سُبْحَانَ رَبِّيَ الْأَعْلَى) 10 times.

Step 8: Repeat in the Next Rak’ah
