The Best Times for Supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He has another section on supplication in which he asks: What are the best times for supplication to be answered, and should a person be in a state of ritual purity, or is it the same regardless of his state?
Answer:
If he is in a state of ritual purity, that is better. The most emphatic time for supplication is during prostration, for the servant is closest to his Lord when he is prostrating. Therefore, in prostration, one should increase in supplication, for it is likely that it will be answered for you. Likewise, in the last third of the night, the time of the Divine Descent to the lowest heaven, when He says, "Is there anyone asking, that I may give to him? Is there anyone supplicating, that I may answer him?" And likewise, in the hour of Friday, for on Friday there is an hour in which no Muslim servant who is standing in prayer asks Allah for anything but that Allah answers him. This is only some of the times of acceptance; otherwise, there are many times. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
