After every obligatory prayer” that is, before the Taslim.
It has been reported explicitly that he would recite it before the Taslim in some versions.
And this is the truth.
Help me remember You:
That is, every word that brings one closer to Allah, every contemplation that brings one closer to Allah is from the remembrance of Allah.
It also involves asking Allah for His help to carry out His remembrance.
According to Prophet Muhammad SAW, one of the best deed is remembrance of Allah.
And the remembrance includes reciting the Qur’an, which is the best remembrance, and it also includes mentioning it with the heart, as recalling its greatness, observing it, fearing it, loving it, trusting in it, and hoping for it.
And it includes all kinds of remembrance of praise, glorification, seeking forgiveness, praying for the Prophet, and supplication.
To be grateful to You:
That is, appreciation of favour and removal of calamity.
How many are the bounties of Allah on us and how many are the calamities He has saved us from, so we should be grateful to Allah for such.
It also means to be thankful for your physical and spiritual blessings that cannot be counted.
And if you count the favor of Allah, you will not be able to count it.
And it is with the tongue, with praise, and speaking of them.
And the greatest gratitude is the (taqwa) piety of Allah.
Ibn Rajab, may Allah have mercy on him, said:
Every blessing is from God Almighty in Debt or worldly life, you need to be thanked for it, then success to be thanked for it is another blessing, you need a second thank you, then success for the second thank you is another blessing that needs another thank you, and so on forever, the servant is not able to do thankfulness for blessings.
As for gratitude, thanking Allah also includes thanking Him in the heart by invoking His blessings and favors, physical and spiritual.
We ask Allah to assist us in it.
And to worship You in an excellent manner:
Excellent manner of worship involves two issues: sincerity to Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, worship becomes better each time sincerity gets stronger, and emulating the Messenger of Allah.
May Allah Protect us from a hellfire, Dajjal And all calamities.
And Allah alone grants success.
