There is a Hadith that speaks about Allah "tearing open the sky" to look at a person who recites a specific, long form of dhikr.
While the popular "one hundred times" Hadith (freeing ten slaves) is in Bukhari and Muslim, the narration regarding "tearing open the sky" is found in other collections, such as an-Nasa'i.
Here are the details of the Hadith often cited in this context:
The Hadith
The Hadith states that whoever sincerely recites:
"La ilaha illallahu, wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu, wa Huwa 'ala kulli shay'in Qadir"
(There is no god but Allah, alone, without partner. To Him belongs sovereignty and to Him belongs praise, and He is over all things omnipotent)
will cause Allah to tear open the sky and look at that person. The right of a servant whom Allah looks at is that their supplication is granted.
Authentication (Al-Albani)
This narration, which includes the phrase "tearing open the sky" (تتقطع لها السموات), is found in works such as Sunan an-Nasa'i.
It is often considered authentic or Hasan (fair) in references discussing significant forms of dhikr.
The Dhikr (Transliteration)
Laa ilaha illallaahu wahdahu la shareekalahu, lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu wa Huwa 'ala kulli Shay'in Qadeer.
Context and Difference
The "Sky Tearing" Hadith:
This Hadith highlights that reciting this dhikr with sincerity results in a unique divine gaze and the acceptance of prayers.
The "100 Times" Hadith (Bukhari/Muslim):
This narration states that repeating the same phrase 100 times daily offers protection from Shaytaan, is equivalent to freeing 10 slaves, and earns 100 good deeds.
Both Hadith use the same dhikr, but the "sky tearing" version focuses on the profound spiritual outcome of its sincere recitation.
WALLAAHU A'LAM .
