In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds. May peace and blessings be upon His Messenger, and upon his family and his Companions, our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions.
And when the prayer has been concluded, disperse within the landفَإِذَا قُضِيَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَانتَشِرُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ

, meaning the Friday prayer, and likewise the other prayers,
And when the prayer has been concludedفَإِذَا قُضِيَتِ الصَّلَاةُ
[Al-Jumu'ah 62:10]
meaning once it is finished, disperse in the land,
and seek from the bounty of Allah, and remember Allah often that you may succeed.وَابْتَغُوا مِن فَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ
[Al-Jumu'ah 62:10]
.
Remembrance of Allah is by praising Him, glorifying Him, saying Allahu Akbar, and thanking Him. Remembrance is of two types: general remembrance and specific remembrance after the prayers. The remembrance after the prayers, when one has finished them, is saying the tahlil ten times, tasbih thirty-three times, takbir thirty-three times, and tahmid thirty-three times, and to complete the hundred, saying: There is no god but Allah, He has no partner, to Him belongs the dominion and to Him belongs the praise, and He is able to do all things, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) explained that to his Companions. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
