Summary

Reciting tasmi’ and tahmid during i’tidal is recommended (sunnah) according to the majority of scholars, like other prayer remembrances, while i’tidal itself is a pillar agreed upon by scholars. This is drawn from the hadith of the man who prayed incorrectly, where the Prophet did not teach these remembrances among the obligatory acts. A person praying alone combines tasmi’ and tahmid by consensus. For the follower, the preferred position of the Shafi’i school is that reciting tasmi’ is also recommended, based on the hadith to pray as the Prophet was seen praying.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Manakala hukum membaca tasmi' dan tahmid ketika i'tidal adalah sunat menurut pandangan jumhur ulama sebagaimana bacaan zikir-zikir dalam solat yang lain.
