Is there a report of saying "True is the Mighty Allah" after reciting the Qur'an

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : The sister questioner with us on the line says: Is saying "True is the Mighty Allah" reported after reciting the Noble Qur'an?

Answer : Concluding the recitation of the Noble Qur'an by saying "True is Allah" is not reported. Therefore, a person should not divide his recitation with "True is the Mighty Allah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) listened to the recitation of 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him).
In Surat al-Nisa, until he reached the words of Allah the Exalted:
So how [will it be] when We bring from every nation a witness and we bring you, [O Muhammad] against these [people] as a witness?فَكَيْفَ إِذَا جِئْنَا مِن كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ بِشَهِيدٍ وَجِئْنَا بِكَ عَلَىٰ هَٰؤُلَاءِ شَهِيدًا
[An-Nisa 4:41]
, he said, "That is enough for you," and 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud stopped and did not conclude his recitation by saying "True is the Mighty Allah." Nor did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) guide him to do so. And we have not been informed that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say that. The best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and the worst of matters are their innovations, as the hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) is authentic in that regard.
