The answer

Reciting tasbih (Subhan Allah), tahmid (Alhamdulillah), and takbir (Allahu Akbar) after prayer has been reported in various forms. One of these forms is reciting tasbih ten times, tahmid ten times, and takbir ten times, based on the saying of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him: "There are two characteristics which, if a Muslim man observes them, he will enter Paradise, and they are easy, yet few act upon them: He glorifies Allah (says Subhan Allah) ten times after every prayer, praises Him (says Alhamdulillah) ten times, and exalts Him (says Allahu Akbar) ten times." All the numbers mentioned in these traditions are good.
