Question:
Can i pray

Tasbeeh of the following

انا لله وانا اليه راجعون

Its on my tongue i pray everytime when sum bad happens.. Evn a little slip/trip when im wlking in hall with my walker to exercise.

Answer:
In the Name of Allaah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salaamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullaahi wa-barakaatuh.

The above phrase means “Indeed we belong to Allaah, and indeed to Him we shall return”. This is often said at the time of a calamity or trial. However, it may be said as a tasbeeh. One may recite it and repeat it as many times as he wishes. When doing so, he should reflect over the meaning as well. This will add life to his prayer.

And Allaah Ta’aala knows best.
