The Prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at the Conclusion of Supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And from that, is there anything reported regarding the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) before the conclusion of the prayer after Friday?
The Shaykh:
I do not know of anything reported regarding the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after the first tashahhud, after one has recited the formula of the first tashahhud, where he prays upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with the Ibrahimiyyah prayer. As for concluding the du'a' with the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I do not know of anything reported in this, except if it is from the general category, because it is reported that among the causes for the acceptance of du'a' is to pray upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at the end. This is among the causes for the acceptance of du'a'. So if someone does it, it is not to be criticized, because it is reported that du'a' is concluded with the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), because this is more hopeful for acceptance. And this is general in prayer and in other matters; there is no obstacle, if Allah wills.
