Ayatollah Khamenei (may God protect him):
During prayer, the testimony is limited to the matters mentioned in the practical jurisprudence texts, which are the two testimonies. No additional phrases should be included, even if they are true and correct.

Ayatollah Sistani (may God protect him):
It is strongly recommended to avoid the third testimony in the Tashahhud.
