A follow up query on the du’a for protection from destruction by sin

Some ‘Ulama recommend reading this du’a after Fajr and after Maghrib:

La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lahu lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu yuhyi wa yumitu wa huwa ‘ala kulli shayin qadir

Is there any Hadith to support this?

Answer:

The version recorded by Imam Ahmad (rahimahullah) mentions reciting this du’a after Maghrib and after Fajr. This practice is therefore supported by Hadith.

(Musnad Ahmad, vol. 4 pg. 227)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
