Question

I have learnt that he used to say the following: AllahuAkbar once, Astaghfirullah thrice, Ayat-ul-Kursi once, Subhan Allah and Alhamdulillah 33 time, AllahuAkbar 34 times Allahumma Aiinni..... once Allahumma Antas Salaamu...... once. Please provide references in terms of Hadith for all the above Sunnahs.

Answer

The sunnah after the fard salaahs are as follows:
- Astagfirullah 3 times, narrated by Imam Muslim 1/414
- The dhikr of subhanalaah, al hamdulliaah alaahuakbr 33 times is narrated by Imam muslim 1/418
- Ayatul kursi is to be read as narrated by Imaam An-Nasaee
- Alaahuma ants salaam as narrated by Imaam Muslim 1/414
- Laa ilaaha illallaahu wahdahoo laa shareeka lah (Bukhari)
- Recite the 3 Quls (Abu Dawud; an-Nasaaie, al-Tirmidhi)
- Laa ilaaha illallaahu wahdadhu laa shareeka lahu lahul mulk wa lahul hamd (Ahmad)

From the above this was the practice of our Nabi (saw) as proven from authentic sources.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
