Is it permissible to recite tasbih with both hands together?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a caller to the program who sent a set of questions from Jordan, Abd al-Hafiz. In the first question, he asks: Is it permissible to recite tasbih with both hands, or with the right hand only?
And if it is with the right hand only, please clarify the reasons.
May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with reciting tasbih with both hands, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the women:
Count with the fingertipsاعقدن بالأنامل
The right hand is better, as it is reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he used to recite tasbih with his right hand. Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: “He liked to prefer the right hand in putting on his sandals, in his purification, in using his miswak, and in all his affairs.” If it is better with the right hand, and if one recites tasbih with both hands as in the hadith:
Count with the fingertipsاعقدن بالأنامل
for the women, then there is no blame on him for that. The matter is broad, and praise be to Allah.

The presenter: May Allah reward you.
