Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling for one who forgets the opening supplication, then remembers it in the second rak'ah? Does he recite it?
Answer:
Its time has passed, my brother; its time has passed. It is a recommended practice (sunnah), not obligatory, so even if he left it out intentionally, he owes nothing. Since its time has passed, it is not recited in the second rak'ah. Yes.
