Answer:
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask
for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever
He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that
there is no one (no idol, no person, no
grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai,
nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that
Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
'Ikrimah reports from Ibn 'Abbas that the
Messenger of Allah (saws) said to 'Abbas ibn 'Abdal-Mutalib: "O 'Abbas, O
Uncle, shall I not give you, shall I not present to you, shall I not donate to
you, shall I not tell you ten things which, if you do, Allah will forgive your
first and last sins, past and present sins, intentional and unintentional sins,
private and public sins? The ten actions
are: pray four rak'at, reciting in every rak'ah al-Fatihah and a surah. And when you finish the Qur'anic recitation
of the first rak'ah, say, while
standing, 'Subhanallah, al-hamdulillah, wa la ilaha illallah, wa Allahu Akbar'
['Glory be to Allah. All praise is due to Allah. There is no God except Allah.
Allah is the greatest.'] fifteen times.
Then make ruku', and while you are in ruku', say the same ten
times; then stand, and say the same ten
times. Then go down and make sajdah, and
while you're in sajdah, say the same ten times.
Then sit after the sajdah, and say the same ten times. Then make sajdah, and say the same ten
times. Then sit after the second sajdah,
and say the same another ten times. That
is seventy-five [repetitions of the phrases] in each rak'ah. Do that in each of the four rak'at. If you can pray it once a day, do so. If you cannot, then once every Friday. If you cannot do that, then once a year. And if you cannot do that then once in your
life."

at-Tabarani.
The above narration by Ikrimah is quoted as ‘sahih’ or
authentic by many recorders of ahaadiths.
Some scholars however have a difference of opinion and say that the
above narration is not authentic, and
there is no mention of the Prayer of Tasbih or ‘Salaat ul Tasbih’ in any of the
four major schools of thought in Islam.
If one prays the above prayer and his intention is to
follow the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (saws), he will have his due reward from Allah
Subhanah, Insha Allah.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to
Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only
Source of Strength.
Your Brother in Islam,
