The Prayer of Need and the Prayer of Seeking Guidance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Answer:
No, there is no need to read that it is weak. It is well known that the prayer of need, which is the prayer for repentance, is a weak narration, and the prayer of seeking guidance is also weak. However, if a person commits a sin and prays two rak'ahs, then turns to his Lord and seeks His forgiveness, that is forbidden. It is not every need, yes. The need is for repentance from his sin and returning to Allah, or for seeking guidance, yes.
