In Ayat 205 of Surat A'araf of the Holy Qur'an (7:205), Allah, Azza Wa Jallah, says:--
"AND REMEMBER YOUR LORD BY YOUR TONGUE AND WITHIN YOURSELF, HUMBLY AND
IN REVERENCE, WITHOUT LOUDNESS IN WORDS, IN THE MORNINGS AND EVENINGS; AND
BE NOT AMONG THE NEGLECTFUL."
The Noble Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "He who remember his Lord and he who does not remember his Lord are like the living and the dead." [Bukhari]. And Abdullah Ibn Busr, may Allah be pleased with him, said that a man asked the Prophet, peace be upon him, "O Messenger of Allah! Verily the sanctions of Islam have become too numerous for me (to perform). Inform me of something [simple] that I may adhere to". The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "Let your tongue always be moist with Remembrance [Zikr] of Allah." [Tirmidhi 5/458, Ibn Majah 2/1246].
