The Prescribed Supplication in Prostration

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. A listener sent a message asking and saying: In the prayer, in the prostration, I say after “Subhanaka Allahumma wa bihamdika, Allahumma ighfir li” (Glory is to You, O Allah, and praise is to You, O Allah, forgive me), “Ya Muqallib al-qulub, thabbit qalbi 'ala dinik” (O Turner of hearts, make my heart firm upon Your religion). After that, I say, “My Lord, forgive me and my parents, and have mercy on them as they raised me when I was small. O Allah, grant me the pleasure of gazing at Your noble Face, without any harmful adversity or misleading trial. O Allah, rectify my wife, my children, and all my descendants. O Allah, make the noble Qur'an the spring of our hearts. O Lord, increase us in knowledge, and grant us its understanding and its memorization.” May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
All of this is prescribed supplication, and it is permissible in prostration, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)
As for prostration, increase in it the supplication.وأما السجود فأكثروا فيه من الدعاء.
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 2:274
. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The closest a servant is to his Lord is when he is in prostration, so increase in supplication, for it is likely that it will be answered for you.أقرب ما يكون العبد من ربه هو مساجد فأكثروا من الدعاء فقمن أن يستجاب لكم.
. So the Muslim increases his supplication in prostration with whatever types of supplications are easy for him, concerning the rectification of his religion, his worldly life, and his Hereafter, and the rectification of his children, and supplicating for himself, his parents, and the Muslims. Yes.
