Tasbih is only with the Right Hand

Question :

A young man led us in prayer and after the prayer, he began to make Tasbih with only his right hand. Some of the worshippers were surprised at this and asked him about it. He said: "This is the Sunnah." I request that you explain for us the correctness of this.

Answer:

What the Imam did was correct, because it has been authentically reported from the Prophet that he used to perform the Tasbih with his right hand. But whoever made the Tasbih with both hands, there is no objection to this, in accordance with the general meaning of most of the Hadiths. But Tasbih with the right is better in order to act in accordance with the confirmed Sunnah of the Prophet. And Allah is the Granter of success.
