Saying: “O Allah, have mercy on our standing before You after the iqamah”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, I ask Allah for your success.
The Shaykh:
What is the ruling on a person saying, “O Allah, have mercy on our standing before You,” after the iqamah and before the takbir of ihram? There is nothing wrong with it, as long as he does not make it a habit and designate it as a specific supplication. If he says it occasionally, supplicating with whatever is easy for him, there is nothing wrong with it. But if he designates a specific supplication to make regularly, that requires evidence.
