Audio from http://www.tafseer-raheemi.com/ There is no exact method for this type of Dhikr, for (as you have seen that its method is not established through Sunnah) the experiences of different Masha'ikh differed from one another. this is the reason why one should abstain from regarding a specific method to be necessary. The method of this Dhikr There is no exact method for this type of Dhikr, for (as you have seen that its method is not established through Sunnah) the experiences of different Masha'ikh differed from one another. This is the reason why one should abstain from regarding a specific method to be necessary. Different Sufi orders (tariqas) have different ways and methods of carrying out this Dhikr. Below is one of the methods normally practiced by the Chishtiyya spiritual order: 1) Sending blessings and salutations (salat wa salam) on the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace), 2) Recitation of the Dhikr "la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah la malja'a wa la manja'a min Allah illa ilayh" 360 times, 3) Recitation of Surah al-Inshirah (alam nashrah) completely 360 times, 4) One again, recitation of "la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah la malja'a wa la manja'a min Allah illa ilayh" 360 times, 5) Sending blessings and Salutations (salat wa salam) on the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace), Thereafter one should supplicate to Allah Almighty (dua) and ask Him for all of one's needs and the removing of difficulties and calamities. Note that, the number of 360 is not needed from every individual, rather when it is performed collectively, it is sufficient to reach 360 by the collective recitation.
