The question

Is dividing the hundred remembrances (such as "Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi," "La ilaha illa Allah wahdahu la sharika lah," and seeking forgiveness) into twenty repetitions after each prayer, so that the hundred are completed throughout the day, considered an innovation, bearing in mind that the intention is to facilitate performing all of them and not to specify them as remembrances of the prayer?

The answer

The day begins from the appearance of dawn until sunset, and the night from sunset until the appearance of dawn. Dhikr (remembrance of Allah) that is restricted to a specific time, such as daily remembrances, must be performed within its designated time to attain the promised reward.

Thus, the : "Whoever says: 'There is no god but Allah alone, without any partner. To Him belongs all sovereignty and praise, and He is over all things competent' a hundred times in a day" means that this dhikr should be recited during the day, whether consecutively or separately, before sunset. As for Ayatul-Kursi (the Verse of the Throne), it is recited immediately after prayer. Dispersing the dhikr is not considered an innovation if it is easier for one.
