Astaghfirullāh (x3), Allāhumma antas-Salām wa minkas-salām, tabārakta (yā) Dhal-jalāli wal-ikrām
عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا انْصَرَفَ مِنْ صَلاَتِهِ اسْتَغْفَرَ ثَلاَثًا وَقَالَ “ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ السَّلاَمُ وَمِنْكَ السَّلاَمُ تَبَارَكْتَ ذَا الْجَلاَلِ وَالإِكْرَامِ ” . قَالَ الْوَلِيدُ فَقُلْتُ لِلأَوْزَاعِيِّ كَيْفَ الاِسْتِغْفَارُ قَالَ تَقُولُ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ
عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَقَالَ “ يَا ذَا الْجَلاَلِ وَالإِكْرَامِ ”
Thawbān narrated: When the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) finished his prayer, he sought forgiveness three times (i.e. Astaghfirullāh x3) and said: Oh Allāh ! You are As-Salām, and from you is all peace; Blessed are You, Oh Possessor of Majesty and Honour (Allāhumma antas-Salām wa minkas-salām, tabārakta (yā) Dhal-jalāli wal-ikrām). Walīd reported: I said to (Imām) Awzā’ī: How is the seeking of forgiveness? He replied: You should say: (Astaghfirullāh, Astaghfirullāh) I seek Allāh’s forgiveness, I seek Allāh’s forgiveness.”

Allāhumma a’innī ‘alā dhikrika wa shukrika wa husni ‘ibādatik
وعن معاذ رضي الله عنه، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، أخذ بيده وقال: “يا معاذ، والله إني لأحبك، ثم أوصيك يا معاذ لا تدعن في دبر كل صلاة تقول: اللهم أعني على ذكرك وشكرك، وحسن عبادتك”
Mu’ādh narrated: The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) held my hand and said, “Oh Mu’ādh, By Allāh, I love you and advise you not to leave out supplicating after every prayer saying: ‘Oh Allāh, help me to remember You, expressing gratitude to You and worship You in the best manner'( Allāhumma a’innī ‘alā dhikrika wa shukrika wa husni ‘ibādatik )”.

Lā ilaha ill-Allāh wahdahu lā sharīkah lah, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘alā kulli shay’in qadīr. Allāhumma lā māni’a limā a’tayta wa lā mu’tiya limā mana’ta wa lā yanfa’u dha’l-jaddi minka’l-jadd
كَتَبَ الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ إِلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنَ الصَّلاَةِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ “ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَلاَ مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ وَلاَ يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ ”
Mughīra ibn Shu’bah wrote to Mu’āwiyah: When the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) finished the prayer and pronounced salutation he would say:” There is none worthy of worship but Allāh alone, Who has no partner. To Him belongs the kingdom and to Him belongs the praise, and He has Power over all things. Oh Allāh! no one can withhold what You give, or give what You withhold, no wealth or majesty can benefit anyone for from You is all wealth and majesty (Lā ilaha ill-Allāh wahdahu lā sharīkah lah, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘alā kulli shay’in qadīr. Allāhumma lā māni’a limā a’tayta wa lā mu’tiya limā mana’ta wa lā yanfa’u dha’l-jaddi minka’l-jadd). “

كَانَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ يَقُولُ فِي دُبُرِ كُلِّ صَلاَةٍ حِينَ يُسَلِّمُ “ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَلاَ نَعْبُدُ إِلاَّ إِيَّاهُ لَهُ النِّعْمَةُ وَلَهُ الْفَضْلُ وَلَهُ الثَّنَاءُ الْحَسَنُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ الدِّينَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ ” . وَقَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُهَلِّلُ بِهِنَّ دُبُرَ كُلِّ صَلاَةٍ
Abū Zubayr narrated: Ibn Zubayr uttered at the end of every prayer after pronouncing salutation (these words):” There is none worthy of worship but Allāh Alone, Who has no partner. To Him belongs the kingdom, and to Him belongs the praise, and He has power over all things. There is no might or power except with Allāh. There is none worthy of worship but Allāh and we do not worship but Him alone. To Him belong all bounties, to Him belongs all Grace, and to Him is worthy praise accorded. There is none worthy of worship but Allāh, to Whom we are sincere in devotion, even though the disbelievers dislike it (Lā ilaha ill-Allāh wahdahu lā sharīkah lah, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘alā kulli shay’in qadīr. Lā hawla wa lā quwwata illā Billāh wa lā na’budu illā iyyāh. Lahu’l-ni’matu wa lahu’l-fadl wa lahu-thanāu al-hasan. Lā ilaha ill-Allāh mukhlisīna lahu’d-dīna wa law kariha’l-kāfirūn).” (The narrator said): The Messenger of Allāh uttered it at the end of every (obligatory) prayer.

Lā ilaha ill-Allāh wahdahu lā sharīkah lah, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd yuhyī wa yumīt wa huwa ‘alā kulli shay’in qadīr (x10)
مَن قالَ قبلَ أن ينصرفَ ويثنيَ رجليهِ من صلاةِ المغربِ والصُّبحِ لا إلَهَ إلَّا اللَّهُ وحدَهُ لا شريكَ لَهُ لَهُ الملكُ ولَهُ الحمدُ يحيي ويميتُ وَهوَ على كلِّ شيءٍ قديرٌ عشرَ مرَّاتٍ كَتبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِكُلِّ واحدةٍ عشرَ حسَناتٍ ومحا عنهُ عشرَ سيِّئاتٍ ورفعَ لَهُ عشرَ درجاتٍ وَكانَت له حِرزًا من كلِّ مَكْروهٍ وحِرزًا منَ الشَّيطانِ الرَّجيمِ ولم يحِلَّ للذَّنبِ أن يُدْرِكَهُ إلَّا الشِّركَ وَكانَ من أفضلِ النَّاسِ عملًا إلَّا رجلًا يَفضلُهُ يقولُ أفضلَ مِمَّا قالَ
The prophet said: “Whoever says before moving and bending his legs from the Maghrib and Fajr prayers – There is none worthy of worship but Allāh Alone, Who has no partner. To him belongs the kingdom and to Him belongs the praise. He gives life and causes death,and He has Power over all things – ten times. Allāh writes for him ten good deeds, erases from him ten sins,and elevates him ten degrees. And he will have protection from what he hates and protection from the Shaytān, and no sin will harm him except shirk (associating partners with Allāh). And he will be from the best of people in action. The only one better than him is the one who has said better than him. “
