Adhkar after prayer

In short

After every obligatory prayer

In this order, as the Mawqet screen shows them after each prayer:

1. أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ. اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ السَّلَامُ وَمِنْكَ السَّلَامُ، تَبَارَكْتَ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ.

   I seek Allah’s forgiveness (three times). O Allah, You are Peace and from You comes peace. Blessed are You, Possessor of Majesty and Honour.

   Narrated by Muslim

2. لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، اللَّهُمَّ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ، وَلَا مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ، وَلَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ.

   There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. O Allah, none can withhold what You give, none can give what You withhold, and no one’s fortune avails them against You.

   Narrated by Bukhari & Muslim

3. لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ، لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَلَا نَعْبُدُ إِلَّا إِيَّاهُ، لَهُ النِّعْمَةُ وَلَهُ الْفَضْلُ وَلَهُ الثَّنَاءُ الْحَسَنُ، لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ الدِّينَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ.

   There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. There is no power and no strength except through Allah. There is no god but Allah, and we worship none but Him. His is the blessing, His is the bounty, and His is the beautiful praise. There is no god but Allah; we devote our religion sincerely to Him, even though the disbelievers dislike it.

   Narrated by Muslim

4. سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلهِ، وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ (ثَلَاثًا وَثَلَاثِينَ)، لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ.

   Glory be to Allah, praise be to Allah, and Allah is the Greatest (thirty‑three times each). Then: There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things.

   Narrated by Muslim

5. سُورَةُ الْإِخْلَاصِ، سُورَةُ النَّاسِ، سُورَةُ الْفَلَقِ.

   Surat Al‑Ikhlas, Surat An‑Nas and Surat Al‑Falaq.

   Once

6. Ayat al-Kursi

   ﴿اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ ۚ لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ ۚ لَّهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ ۗ مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِندَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ ۚ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ ۖ وَلَا يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلَّا بِمَا شَاءَ ۚ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ۖ وَلَا يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ﴾

   Allah: there is no god but Him, the Ever‑Living, the Sustainer of all. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, and they grasp nothing of His knowledge except what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and guarding them does not tire Him. He is the Most High, the Most Great.

   Once · Al-Baqarah 2:255

Added after Fajr and Maghrib

After Fajr and Maghrib, Surat Al‑Ikhlas, Surat An‑Nas and Surat Al‑Falaq are each read three times, and this is added:

1. لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ، وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ.

   There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise; He gives life and causes death, and He has power over all things.

1. اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عِلْمًا نَافِعًا، وَرِزْقًا طَيِّبًا، وَعَمَلًا مُتَقَبَّلًا.

   O Allah, I ask You for beneficial knowledge, good provision, and accepted deeds.

   After Fajr · Narrated by Ibn Majah

Showing the adhkar on the mosque screen

On the free Mawqet screen the adhkar appear by themselves after each prayer and stay for the minutes you set for that prayer (15 by default), then the screen returns to the prayer times.

• Show them on one page, or split them into pages with Ayat al-Kursi on its own.
• In English mode, the meaning appears under each dhikr; the dhikr itself stays in Arabic.
• After Fajr and Maghrib the screen adds what is said only then, as listed above.

Set it up from the setup guide, and download from the download page.
