We have been informed that making a specific supplication for worldly matters during the prayer invalidates the prayer. Is this specific to the obligatory prayer?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, making a specific supplication for worldly matters invalidates the prayer. Is this only in the obligatory prayer, or does it apply to voluntary prayers as well?
Answer:
It applies to voluntary prayers as well; because the prayer is not prescribed for worldly matters. However, if one supplicates for the world as a follow-up to supplication for the Hereafter, there is no harm. It is permissible to follow what is not permissible on its own. Yes.
