The Tahlil in the Wird

Sidna mentioned this evening:

that though it is mentioned that it permitted to recite simply la ilaha ilallah - ا اله الا الله for the tahlil in the wird as a rukhsa, it is nevertheless superior and more befitting in our times to recite the full la ilaha lillah wahdahu la sharika lahu etc. -  لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيء قدير since the demons of spirits and men are many. For there is a hadith that states:

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال"من قال لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيء قدير في يوم مائة مرة كانت له عدل عشر رقاب وكتبت له مائة حسنة ومحيت عنه مائة سيئة وكانت له حرزا من الشيطان يومه ذلك حتى يمسي ولم يأت أحد بأفضل مما جاء به إلا أحد عمل أكثر من ذلك." (البخاري)

 From Abi Hurairah (Allah be well pleased with him) that the Messanger of Allah (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said:
"Whoever says, 'There is no god but Allah alone, no partner has He, His is the dominion, His is the praise, and He is All-Powerful over all things.' one hundrend times in a day shall have the reward of freeing ten slaves, and ten good deeds shall be written for him, and ten evil deeds shall be written off for him, and he shall have protection from demons for that day of his until evening. And none will come with better that what he has come with except the one who does more." (Bukhari)

So those who sow more reap more.

و الحمد لله رب العالمين

Sidna also mentioned a hadith in Tirmidi that reciting it in evening gives protection until the day. This was considered authentic by Imam Ibn Hajr al-Asqalani.
