Islam teaches us that small and simple, consistent acts can bring enormous rewards from Allah. You don’t need to do something extraordinary to earn Allah’s pleasure, even the simplest acts can carry tremendous blessings when done with sincere intentions. Here are 10 easy deeds that Islam promises will bring amazing rewards:

1. Reward Equal to Full Quran

قُلْ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ

ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّمَدُ

لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ

وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُۥ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌۢ

Qul huwal laahu ahad,  
Allah hus-samad,   
Lam yalid wa lam yoolad,  
Wa lam yakul-lahoo kufuwan ahad.
Say, “He is Allah, [who is] One, 
Allah, the Eternal Refuge. 
He neither begets nor is born, 
Nor is there to Him any equivalent.”

Action: Recite Surah Al-Ikhlas (3 times).

Reward: Reward Equivalent to reciting the whole Quran!

Reference:

A man heard another man reciting: Surat-ul-Ikhlas (The Unity) ‘Say: He is Allah, the One (112) and he was repeating it. The next morning he came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and mentioned the whole story to him as if he regarded the recitation of that Sura as insufficient On that, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “By Him in Whose Hand my soul is! That (Sura No. 112) equals one-third of the Qur’an.”

(Sahih al-Bukhari 6643)

2. Palace in Jannah

قُلْ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ

ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّمَدُ

لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ

وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُۥ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌۢ

Qul huwal laahu ahad,  
Allah hus-samad,   
Lam yalid wa lam yoolad,  
Wa lam yakul-lahoo kufuwan ahad.
Say, “He is Allah, [who is] One, 
Allah, the Eternal Refuge. 
He neither begets nor is born, 
Nor is there to Him any equivalent.”

Action: Recite Surah Al-Ikhlas (10 times).

Reward: palace built for you in Paradise!

“Whoever recites Qul huwallahu ahad i.e. Surah Al-Ikhlas ten times, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.”

(Sahih al-Jami’ 6472)

3. Wipe your Oceans of Sins

سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ

Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi
Glory be to Allah and praise be to Him

Action: Say سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ (Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi) 100 times daily.

Reward: All minor sins forgiven, even if they are as vast as the foam of the sea!

Reference:

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Whoever says, ‘Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi,’ one hundred times a day, will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea.

(Sahih Bukhari 6405)

4. Best Dhikr After Quran

لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ

La ilaha illa Allah
There is no god worthy of worship except Allah.

Action: Recite “La ilaha illa Allah” (لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ) frequently.

Reward: As we know from Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) the best dhikr after Quran is La ilaha illa Allah. This powerful statement holds treasures beyond imagination, it unlocks Paradise, erases sins, and outweighs the heavens and the earth in reward.

Reference:

The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:

“The best dhikr (remembrance) is ‘La ilaha illa Allah’.”

(Sunan At-Tirmidhi 3383)

5. Protection From Hellfire

اللَّهُمَّ أَجِرْنِي مِنَ النَّارِ

Allāhumma ajirnī mina an-Nār
O Allah, protect me from the Fire.

Action: Recite the dua: Allahumma Ajirni Minan-Nār three times, ideally after your daily prayers, in your morning/evening adhkar, or anytime during the day with sincerity.

Reward: Every time this dua is recited with a sincere heart, Allah distances the person from the Hellfire. If said three times, it leads Hellfire itself to pray for your protection.

Reference:

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:

No one says: ‘O Allah, protect me from the Fire’ three times, except that the Fire says: ‘O Allah, protect him from me.

(Sunan Ibn Majah 4340)
