Note: Please note that this dua is not from Hadiths. However, due to a common practice among many Muslims (at mosques in different countries), this dua can be recited. However, considering it Sunnah or mustahib (recommended) is not permissible.
You can either recite it or recite any other tasbeeh, durud or supplication. You can also simply stay silent after each set of 4 taraweeh rakah.
I did not know about its origin and its meaning thereof, but used it as it was so commonly used in Indo-pak subcontinent. But now I understand that that there is no authenticity of this dua though nothing wrong in ita meaning. However, to use this as a mandatory event is problematic when it is referenced in quran or hadith. Better avoiding it.
