Does the one who is praying recite tasbih when he passes a verse of tasbih?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for one who sighs during the prayer to say: “I seek Your forgiveness, O Allah, and I repent to You”?
And is it permissible to seek refuge from the accursed Shaytan during the prayer?
And is it permissible for the one who is praying to say: Subhanahu, or Subhan Allah, when he passes certain verses that contain the exaltation of Allah?

Answer:
The Sunnah for the believer in such matters is to do what Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) has prescribed regarding the care for khushu' and reflection on what he recites. If something occurs to him in his prayer, such as passing a verse of tasbih, a verse of hope, or a verse of fear, then he may recite tasbih or make a supplication, and there is no harm in that. However, this is prescribed in the night prayer; that is what is prescribed. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do this in the night prayer, and it is not recorded from him that he did it in the obligatory prayer. If a person does it, he owes nothing, and his prayer is valid, but it is better to leave it; because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not do it except in his tahajjud at night. He would continue in his recitation—(peace and blessings be upon him)—in the Fajr, Maghrib, and 'Isha' prayers, and the people would hear him. He would not stop to recite tasbih or make a supplication. This has not been transmitted from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), as far as we know, except in his tahajjud at night.
So it is better in this not to stop at the verse of tasbih, nor at the verse of warning, nor at the verse of promise, but rather to continue in the obligatory prayer. As for tahajjud at night or the voluntary prayers, the matter is broad, praise be to Allah. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
