Regarding voluntary prayers, do I perform the dhikr and sunnahs that follow the obligatory prayer after them?

Question:
Regarding the voluntary prayer, whether it is at night or during the day, do I perform the sunnahs that follow the obligatory prayer, for example, reciting the Verse of the Throne, or the tasbih, tahmid, and takbir, and so on? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
No, this dhikr is specific to the obligatory prayers, to be performed after the prescribed obligatory prayers. As for the voluntary prayers, one does not perform this specific dhikr after them. However, there is no harm in a person increasing his seeking of forgiveness, supplication, and repentance to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and in reciting whatever is easy for him of the Qur'an, and in seeking refuge in the remembrance of Allah. But this is done without focusing on a specific count. This specific focus on the ten takbirs, the takbir, tahmid, and tasbih—thirty-three times each time—and then the eighty-three recitations of "There is no god but Allah alone, having no partner," is specific to the times after the obligatory prayers. Likewise, reciting the Verse of the Throne is specific to the times after the obligatory prayers. As for the times after the voluntary prayers, the dhikr after them is unrestricted; one may recite it or leave it off, without being bound to a specific dhikr or a specific number. Yes.
