The answer

Reciting the Basmala before each surah is desirable both within and outside of prayer. Saying "صدق الله العظيم" (Allah the Almighty has spoken the truth) after reciting some of the Quran during prayer is permissible and does not invalidate the prayer, because it is a form of remembrance and not human speech. However, one should not make it a continuous practice.
