Summary
Saying sadaqallahul azim after finishing the Quran is not an innovation in religion. It is regarded as a recommended form of remembrance (zikir), a way of honouring the Quran and observing proper manners towards Allah. The fatwa also notes that Shafi'i scholars held it does not invalidate the prayer because it is zikir, and that exegetes often used the phrase in their works.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Membaca sadaqallahulazim setelah selesai membaca al-Quran bukannya perbuatan bidaah dalam agama, bahkan ia merupakan satu bentuk zikir yang digalakkan untuk dibaca sebagai salah satu cara memuliakan al-Quran dan beradab dengan Allah SWT.
