The ruling on supplicating for matters of this world in the obligatory prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible to make du'a' (supplication) for matters of this world, such as marriage and wealth, in the obligatory prayers?
Answer:
It is permissible, but one should not limit oneself to that. One supplicates for his worldly affairs and his Hereafter, and for whatever he needs.[Al-Baqarah 2:201] However, one should not limit oneself to seeking only worldly matters in the prayer; rather, he seeks both the worldly and the Hereafter.

Our Lord, give us in this world [that which is] good and in the Hereafter [that which is] good and protect us from the punishment of the Fire."
رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ
