May Allah establish it and make it lasting after the iqamah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people say after the iqamah of the prayer, "May Allah establish it and make it lasting," or "Truly, there is no god but Allah." Is this prescribed?

Answer:
No, none of this has been transmitted. Neither saying "Truly, there is no god but Allah"—say "There is no god but Allah" following the mu'adhdhin without saying "Truly"—nor "May Allah establish it and make it lasting." This is reported in a hadith, but it is not established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
