The repetition of an invocation in this manner would
seem to constitute Zikr.

However,  why is it 95 and not an even 100? Or why is
it not 59?

Having been raised as a Roman Catholic, I have an
aversion to rosaries. I had always assumed that we had
put this type of religious expression behind us and
that ritualistic devotionals were no longer the way of
this dispensation.

I remember cringing when I once heard someone ask that
we as a community should say one thousand "Removers of
Difficulty" as a way I suppose to get God's ear. I
would have assumed that one sincere prayer should have
done the trick.

Curiouser and curiouser,

Forgive my lousy spelling,

Bill
