1,354Are Prayer Beads Allowed in Islam?
Some scholars say that it is permissible to use prayer beads (Masbahah ), but they say that it is preferable to do Tasbih (count praises) on one’s fingers; others say that it is Bid`ah (reprehensible religious innovation).308,179Should the supplication for hearing thunder be repeated if the thunder is continuous?
There is nothing wrong with repeating this dhikr – “Subhan alladhi yusabbih ur-ra‘du bi hamdihi wa’l-mala’ikatu min kheefatihi (Glory be to the One Whom the thunder glorifies and praises, and the angels [also glorify Him] out of fear and awe of Him” – when hearing thunder more than once.7,715How to Remember Allah’s Blessings and Give Thanks for Them
When there is a command in the Quran to remember Allah’s blessing, what is meant is to remember it in one’s heart, by calling to mind Allah’s grace and favour in bestowing it upon His slaves; remembering it in one’s words, by speaking of it; and remembering it in one’s physical actions, by not using that blessing in ways that incur the wrath of Allah, may He be Glorified and Exalted.17,935Is it permissible to have the dua of entering toilet on the door of the bathroom

13,712Does Seeking Worldly Matters Cause Stress and Worries?
The wording mentioned in the question was not soundly narrated from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), and there is no sound report from him to suggest that it is not allowed to offer supplication for what is good in this world, so it is not correct to say that praying for what is good in this world will bring worries and stress. Rather what has been narrated is a warning against being distracted by worldly concerns from the hereafter, or seeking worldly gains in ways that are not permissible.5,749How to Increase Taqwa
You can increase Taqwa by: • Reflecting on the matter of this world and the hereafter and understanding the value of each of them • Striving to obey Allah and do righteous deeds • Fasting a great deal • Striving to acquire the characteristics of the righteous who fear Allah • Adhering to the guidance and teachings of the Prophet • Keeping away from what Allah has prohibited • Reflecting on the verses of Allah and His signs in the universe • Remembering Allah a great deal and reciting Quran • Keeping company with good people • Reading biographies of those who feared Allah among the righteous believers.13,301
