Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: My grandfather does not master the Arabic language, and he does not memorize much of the supplications of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). In his prayer, he supplicates in his native language. Is his prayer valid?
Answer:
Yes, he supplicates in the language he knows, for he does not know any other,[Al-Baqarah 2:286], so he supplicates in his language.
