Surah Al-Ikhlas
After-prayer Adhkar
Surah Al-Ikhlas
قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ اللَّهُ الصَّمَدُ لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ
Qul Huwa-llahu Ahad. Allahu-s-Samad. Lam yalid wa lam yulad. Wa lam yakun lahu kufuwan ahad.
Say, He is Allah, [who is] One, Allah, the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born, nor is there to Him any equivalent.
Plain text (no diacritics)
قل هو الله أحد الله الصمد لم يلد ولم يولد ولم يكن له كفوا أحد

These are said immediately after the salam of every obligatory prayer, before you stand up from where you prayed. The prayer itself is the reminder, so nothing else has to remind you.
Where it comes in the litany
