The Prayer upon the Prophet and Supplication in the Tashahhuds
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, regarding the meaning of the hadith about boldness in prayer, yes? Regarding the meaning of the hadith about boldness in prayer, you stated that it is sufficient in the prayer to recite the tashahhud, and some may infer from this that the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is not performed in the final tashahhud.
Answer:
We did not say that. We said that in the final tashahhud, one recites the first tashahhud, then adds to it the prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his family, as it was transmitted in the Ibrahimic prayer. After that, one supplicates with whatever is easy for him, and strives to include what was transmitted from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding seeking refuge with Allah from the four things, and the hadith of Abu Bakr: “O Allah, my Lord, I have wronged myself with great wrong” and so on. Then one supplicates with whatever is easy for him. We did not say that one should restrict oneself to the tashahhud only. This is for the first one, the first tashahhud only.
