This chart lists 6 combinations of tasbeeḥ that can be said after Ṣalāh. 1⃣. Form One - SubḥānAllāh 33 times - Alḥamdulillāh 33 times - Allāhu Akbar 33 times - Then say: "Lā ilāha illallāhu waḥdahu lā sharīka lahu, lahul-mulku walahul-ḥamdu wa huwa ’alā kulli shay'in qadeer" once. [Reported by Muslim (597) on the authority of Abū Hurairah] 2⃣. Form Two - SubḥānAllāh 33 times - Alḥamdulillāh 33 times - Allāhu Akbar 34 times [Reported by Muslim (596) on the authority of Ka’b ibn ’Ujrah] 3⃣. Form Three - SubḥānAllāh 33 times - Alḥamdulillāh 33 times - Allāhu Akbar 33 times [Reported by Bukhāri (843) & Muslim (595) on the authority of Abū Hurairah; this wording belongs to Muslim] 4⃣. Form Four - SubḥānAllāh 10 times - Alḥamdulillāh 10 times - Allāhu Akbar 10 times [Reported by Abū Dāwūd (5065) on the authority of ’Abdullāh ibn ’Amr; graded 'Ṣaḥīḥ' by Sheikh Albāni in 'Al-Kalim Aṭ-Ṭayyib 113] 5⃣. Form Five - SubḥānAllāh 11 times - Alḥamdulillāh 11 times - Allāhu Akbar 11 times [Reported by Muslim (595) on the authority of Abū Hurairah] 🔺NOTE: The scholars differed regarding this particular form, and it seems that it is not a distinct form on its own. Suhail ibn Abī Ṣāliḥ Dhakwān As-Sammān (one of the subnarrators) intended to explain the method of counting thirty-three repetitions, mistakenly believing that this count applied collectively to all three forms of dhikr. However, the correct understanding is that each form of dhikr— (SubḥanAllāh), (Alḥamdulillāh), and (Allāhu Akbar)—should be repeated thirty-three times each. Thus, the total would be ninety-nine, not thirty-three! 6⃣. Form Six - SubḥānAllāh 25 times - Alḥamdulillāh 25 times - Allāhu Akbar 25 times - Then say: "Lā ilāha illallāh" 25 times. [Reported by An-Nasā'ee (1350) on the authority of Zaid ibn Thābit; graded 'Ṣaḥīḥ' By Sheikh Albāni in Ṣaḥīḥ An-Nasā'ee]
