there is a hadith which talks about saying “There is none worthy of worship except Allah, for Whom there is no partner.To Him belongs the dominion and to Him is the praise. And He has power over all things.” Should this be said only once in the morning or evening or 10 times?

I know an Islamic scholar who died recently and during his life he propagated things which would clearly account to Shirk and Biddah (like in one video, he claimed Sheikh Abdul Qader Jeelani could give life back to the dead). Can we make du’a for him or people like him. I know that Allah alone will judge him and the state in which he died, but is is allowed for us to make dua for him?

Such a person is a mushrik and one can’t make Duaa for him.

Ya Sheikh one of the Adkhar is the recitation of Subhana lahi wa bihamdihi 100 times, my question is if sometimes one doesn’t have much time & one reduces this number to less 100, and in another case if one increase it more than 100, is this a sin or an innovation? And can all the adhkars be recited while doing some activity like cooking, walking or driving?

Doing it less will deprive you of the reward of forgiveness! Doing it more than 100 is permissible and the sky is the limit.

Is this dua from an authentic hadith and am I able to recite it. 1484. Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) used to supplicate: “Allahumma inni a`udhu bika minal-barasi, wal-jununi, wal-judhami, wa sayyi’il-asqami’ (O Allah! I seek refuge in You from leucoderma, insanity, leprosy and evil diseases).” [Abu Dawud].

Supplications

NO problem in using a  tasbeeh or counter but its preferable to use your fingers. There is no problem in setting particular target if you don’t believe it is sunnah or recommended as then it becomes a bid’ah.
