Supplication for the Ruler in the Sermon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, I ask Allah for your well-being. Do you agree with making supplication for the ruler? The common people believe that this is obligatory, so I sometimes omit it?
Answer:
No, do not omit it; be consistent with it. Be consistent with supplication for the Muslims as well. People need this, and people know that this is not obligatory, but rather a recommended practice (sunnah). Yes.
