Muslims often ask for forgiveness and rizq after each namaz. Praise Allah, send blessings on the Prophet, and ask Him to guide and protect you in your daily life.

The Prophet said there is no god but Allah Alone. He has no partner. The kingdom is His, all praise belongs to Him, and He controls everything. He said this after every required prayer.
Ask Allah to protect you from four things at the end of salah. Request protection, forgiveness, and blessings. Many masnoon duas and sunnah include this after finishing prayer.
Muslims say Laa ilaha illallahu wahdahu laa Syarika lah after Fajr. They ask Allah to bless Prophet Muhammad and his family. It's a special time for prayers and blessings.
