In the case of shortening the prayer, are the post-prayer remembrances shortened, or is the remembrance for each prayer performed?

The questioner : It is well known that the traveler shortens the four-rak'ah prayer, and he also combines the two prayers, such as Zuhr and 'Asr. But are the remembrances prescribed after the prayer also shortened, or are they performed as if they were two separate prayers?
The Shaykh : It appears that the remembrances—peace be upon you and Allah's mercy—it is sufficient to recite one set of remembrances, because the two prayers have become as if they were one prayer, so one set of remembrances is sufficient.
However, it is sufficient to take the more general option. For example, with Maghrib and 'Isha', it is recommended to remember Allah ten times in Maghrib and three times in 'Isha'. So let him take the greater amount, because the lesser is included in the greater. And if he performs the remembrance for each one separately, I see no harm in that, and the first option is sufficient. Yes.
