Question: why do we Hanafees do the post-prayer invocations and supplications (the duaas, tasbeehs and dhikrs done by the prophet after FARD salah) after the sunnah in Thuhr, Maghrib and Esha', and not right after the fard, as it is mentioned by the Prophet - صل الله عليه وسلم - in saheeh ahadeeth?
Answer: This is not entirely an entirely correct description of the Hanafi school. The school says to say something like the amount of "astaghfirullah, astaghfirullah, astaghfirullah. Allahumma anta-s-Salaamu wa minka-s-Salaam, tabaarakta yaa DHa-l-Jalaali wa-l-Ikraam", then pray the sunnah, and then do the other supplication. This is because Aa'ishah told that He - صل الله عليه وسلم - didn't sit more than ""astaghfirullah, astaghfirullah, astaghfirullah. Allahumma anta-s-Salaamu wa minka-s-Salaam, tabaarakta yaa DHa-l-Jalaali wa-l-Ikraam" before praying the sunnah. Contrary to what you have been told about saheeh ahadeeth... Rather, what has been related about invocations and such "after prayer", is taken to mean "after the sunnah - if there is one," due toe the hadith of Aa'ishah.
