Misbaha

A misbaḥah ( Arabic: ), subḥah ( Arabic:), ( Persian and Hindi-Urdu), or tespih (Albanian, Turkish and Bosnian) is a string of beads which is often used by Muslims to keep track of counting in tasbih. It is also the Arabic word for a prayer rope used by Christians to say the Jesus Prayer.

The misbaḥah is also known as tasbīḥ —not to be confused with tasbīḥ, a type of dhikr—in non-Arab Muslim regions, or subḥah in Arabic. In Turkey, the beads are known as tespih.
