The foam of the sea
===========================
The Thikr (remembrance and praising of Allah)
===========================
Abu Huraira (RadhiAllahu 'anhu) reported:
===========================
The Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said:
================================
Whoever says:
================================
سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ
`Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi
(Glorified is Allah and praised is He),
================================
one hundred times a day, his sins will be obliterated even if they are equal to the extent of the foam of the ocean.''
================================
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
================================
Commentary:
================================

Here sins mean minor sins and those which do not relate to the rights of people.
================================
Riyad-us-Saliheen – Hadith No: 1410.
================================
Fortress of the Muslim Invocation No: 254.
================================
The thikr after salaah referred to in the question has been reported in a hadeeth reported by Abu Hurayrah from

the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him):
================================
“Whoever glorifies Allaah

(says Subhaan Allaah) thirty-three times immediately after each prayer,

and praises Allaah (says Al-hamdu Lillaah) thirty-three times,

and magnifies Allaah (says Allaahu akbar) thirty-three times,

This makes ninety-nine,

then to complete one hundred says

Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah wahdahu laa shareeka lahu, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadeer

(There is no god except Allaah Alone, with no partner, His is the power and His is the praise, and He is Able to do all things) –
================================
his sins will be forgiven even if they are like the foam of the sea.”
================================
(Reported by Muslim, 939).
