Then, a man came in a dream from the Ansar (helpers of Prophet Muhammad) and he was asked, 'Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ order you to glorify thirty-three times and praise thirty-three times after each prayer?' The Ansari in his dream replied, 'Yes.' So he was asked, 'Make it twenty-five times and twenty-five times and include the tahleel (saying La ilaha illallah).'
