Dhikr

Dhikr is a word that is used in Islam. It means to remember something or someone. Muslims who practice dhikr remember how great Allah (God) is, by repeating His names and words of praise such as “Subhanallah” (Glory be to Allah) over and over again. Muslims usually do dhikr as part of their daily prayers or as a way to relax and focus their thoughts. It also helps them remember why they follow Islamic teachings and to focus on being good people.
