The Prescribed Dhikr After the Tarawih Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there a specific dhikr (remembrance of Allah) after the Tarawih prayer or the night prayer (Qiyam al-Layl) that a Muslim is required to observe?

Answer:
As mentioned in some previous episodes, the Tarawih prayer is concluded with the Witr prayer. Yes. And when it is concluded with the Witr, he says after it, "Subhan al-Malik al-Quddus" (Glory be to the King, the Most Holy) three times. He says that three times. Yes. As for there being dhikr between the Tarawih prayers, between the taslims (closing salams) of the Tarawih, this is an innovation (bid'ah). Yes. So what is done in some countries, where when the imam concludes with two taslims, they raise their voices with the salutation upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or with various types of supplications, this is an innovation with no basis in Islam, and every innovation is misguidance. Yes.
