Many Baha'is use prayer beads to assist in this. The ones I use (and make) have five large beads and 19 smaller ones to assist in counting. You hold one of the larger ones in the fingers of one hand while slipping the smaller ones through the fingers of the other hand while repeating "Allah-u-Abh�!" once for each bead. Five times nineteen is ninety-five. It takes about five minutes.

Dear Bill,
I guess not. ;-}
This requirement is in the Aqdas, of course, but it wasn't made binding until
the December 28, 1999 letter from the House of Justice.
