After every Salah, I like to remember Allah through the authentic duas and adhkar that were taught and practiced by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. In this post, I have gathered authentic duas and adhkar that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to recite after Salah, so that we can follow his Sunnah and remember Allah after our prayers while seeking His blessings, protection, mercy, and forgiveness.
