The Place of Supplication in Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
With Shaykh Salih. A questioner says: When is the time for supplication in prayer? After I finish the tashahhud, or after the taslim? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
Supplication in prayer is specifically in the prostration. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 479a It is likely that your supplications will be answered if you supplicate in prostration. One also supplicates in the final tashahhud after the salutation upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.

Answer:
Supplication in prayer is specifically in the prostration. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
And see that I have been forbidden to recite the Qur'an in the state of bowing and prostration. So far as Ruk'u is concerned, extol in it the Great and Glorious Lord, and while prostrating yourselves be earnest in supplication, for it is fitting that your supplications should be answered.
أَلاَ وَإِنِّي نُهِيتُ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ رَاكِعًا أَوْ سَاجِدًا فَأَمَّا الرُّكُوعُ فَعَظِّمُوا فِيهِ الرَّبَّ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَأَمَّا السُّجُودُ فَاجْتَهِدُوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ فَقَمِنٌ أَنْ يُسْتَجَابَ لَكُمْ
