REMEMBRANCE OF ALLAH (berdzikir kepada Allah)

The Messenger of Allah (Muhammad) Saw related that Allah Swt ordered Yahya ibn Zakariyya with five commandments; to act upon them and convey them to the Children of Israaeel...(the fifth one being):"...and i ordered you to make mention of Allahoften, as this is like a man being pursued at speed by the enemy until he reaches a protected fortress and so protects himself inside it, likewise is the servant, he can only protect himself from the shaytaan through remembrance of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic."

Allah has said:
Therefore remember Me, I will remember you and be grateful to Me, and reject not faith.
Karena itu, ingatlah kamu kepada-Ku niscaya Aku ingat pula kepadamu, dan bersyukurlah kepada-Ku, dan janganlah kamu mengingkari nikmat-Ku.
[Al Baqarah:152]

O you who believe! Remember Allah with much remembrance.
Hai orang-orang yang beriman, berdzikirlah (dengan menyebut Nama) Allah, dzikir yang sebanyak-banyaknya.
[Al Ahzab:41]

...and for men and women who engage much in Allah's remembrance, for them, has Allah prepared forgiveness and great reward.
laki-laki dan perempuan yang banyak menyebut Nama Allah, Allah telah menyediakan untuk mereka ampunan dan pahala yang besar.
[Al Ahzab:35]

And bring your Lord to remembrance in your (very) soul,with humility and remember without loudness in words, in the morning and evenings, and be not of those who are unheedful.
Dan sebutlah (Nama) Tuhanmu dalam hatimu dengan merendahkan diri dan rasa takut, dan dengan tidak mengeraskan suara, di waktu pagi dan petang, dan janganlah kamu termasuk orang-orang yang lalai.
[Al A'raaf:205]
