Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is the recitation of Surat al-Ikhlas and the two Mu'awwidhat in the morning and evening adhkar restricted to after the Maghrib and Fajr prayers, or is it permissible to recite them even before the Fajr prayer and before the Maghrib prayer?

Answer:
The recitation of the Verse of the Throne, al-Ikhlas, and the two Mu'awwidhat is prescribed after every prayer. It comes after all the obligatory prayers. However, after Maghrib it is three times. Surat al-Ikhlas and the two Mu'awwidhat are recited three times. Likewise, after Fajr it is three times. As for the other prayers, it is once each. Whether you recite them before the prayer or after the prayer, there is nothing wrong with that. But reciting them after the prayer is better. Yes.
