Reading from a book immediately after the prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: There are those who criticize some mosque imams for reading from a book immediately after the prayer, saying that there is no evidence for this in the Book or the Sunnah. Is their criticism correct?

Answer:
No, reminding people after the prayer is established, and reading from a book is a form of reminding. Yes.
