Counting the dhikr after prayer with the fingers of the left hand

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible to count the dhikr after the obligatory prayers—tasbih, tahmid, and tahlil—using the fingers of the left hand instead of the right hand?

Answer:
The right hand is better, unless you have an excuse that prevents you from using it, in which case there is no harm in using the left hand. Yes.
