Arabic hadith text

وَقَالَ صلى الله عليه وسلم: أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُم أَنْ يَكْسِبَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ أَلْفَ حَسَنَةٍ؟ فَسَأَلَهُ سَائِلٌ مِنْ جُلَسَائِهِ كَيْفَ يَكْسِبُ أَحَدُنَا أَلْفَ حَسَنَةٍ؟ قَالَ: يُسَبِّحُ مِائَةَ تَسْبِيحَةٍ، فَيُكتَبُ لَهُ أَلْفُ حَسَنَةٍ أَوْ يُحَطُّ عَنْهُ أَلْفُ خَطِيئَةٍ.

Translation

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Is any one of you unable to earn one thousand good deeds each day? One of those sitting with him asked how one of us could earn one thousand good deeds. He replied that he glorifies Allah one hundred times, and one thousand good deeds are recorded for him or one thousand sins are erased from him.
