What are the times when supplication is answered?

Question:
Does the answering of supplication have several specific times? My knowledge of them is simple, so I will mention them to you so that you may correct my information, may Allah reward you with good. Among them is prostration, and also the time of the adhan, and between the prayer and the iqamah, and at the time of the late night, and on the Day of 'Arafah, and on the day of Jumu'ah. Please guide me: is this information correct? And will you guide me to other times? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Yes, supplication, or the occurrence of supplication, has causes. Among its causes is seeking out the noble places, the noble times, and the state of the supplicant as well. As for the noble places, such as the mosques, like the houses of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), like the two sacred sanctuaries, these are among the places where supplication is answered. Likewise, the sacred sites, such as 'Arafah, Muzdalifah, and Mina, are among the places where supplication is answered. As for the times, such as the end of the night, the time of the late night, and the time of the Divine Descent. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that our Lord (Glorified and Exalted is He) descends every night to the lowest heaven when one-third of the night remains. He says, "Who is asking Me, that I may answer him? Who is seeking My forgiveness, that I may forgive him?" He continues thus until the time of the late night. This is in every night: "Who is asking Me, I will give to him. Who is seeking My forgiveness, I will forgive him. Who is calling upon Me, I will answer him." This is a descent befitting His Majesty (Glorified and Exalted is He), not like the descent of His creation; for Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has attributes befitting Him and His greatness. So we affirm it as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) affirmed it, and we do not inquire into its modality or His other attributes. Likewise, among the times when supplication is answered is the Day of 'Arafah, as the questioner mentioned. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Likewise, among the times when supplication is answered is the Night of Decree, which is in Ramadan. And Allah the Exalted says, in the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful: . To the end of the surah. And His saying (Glorified and Exalted is He): "Indeed, We sent it down in a blessed night" , meaning the Night of Decree. So it is among the times when supplication is answered. Likewise, the month of Ramadan in general is among the times when supplication is answered. The month of Ramadan. Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) said: . Then He said in the verse following it: "And when My servants ask you concerning Me, indeed I am near. I respond to the call of the caller when he calls Me. So let them respond to Me and believe in Me that they may be guided." So in mentioning this verse between the verses of fasting is proof that the month of Ramadan and the state of the fasting person therein are among the things in which the answering of supplication is hoped for. Likewise, among the times when supplication is answered is an hour on the day of Jumu'ah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us of it in an authentic hadith. There is an hour, meaning on the day of Jumu'ah, anything while he is standing praying except that it is answered. And this hour is hidden in this day so that the Muslim strives throughout the day, just as Allah hid the Night of Decree in the month of Ramadan so that the Muslim strives throughout the month, so that he may obtain rewards, so that he may encounter the Night of Decree and increase his striving in the month. And he strives on the day of Jumu'ah as a whole so that he may encounter this hour, and he increases his striving in this day. Likewise, among the states in which supplication is answered is the state of prostration. It has come in a hadith that And Allah the Exalted said, "And prostrate and draw near," meaning draw near to your Lord, for the one in prostration is close to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: As for between the iqamah and the start of the prayer, there is no prescribed supplication established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding that. It was said to Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him): Do you say something after the iqamah? He said: No, since it was not transmitted from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So this is not among the times in which supplication is sought. But if a person supplicates in it sometimes, without making it a habit and without persisting in it, there is no harm in that.
