Supplication in a language other than Arabic
The first question of Fatwa No. ( 6348 )
Q1: Is it permissible for him to supplicate in the English language?
A1: It is permissible for a person to supplicate to Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) in the language that
he knows, whether it is Arabic, English, Urdu, or any other language; because of His saying, the Exalted:[Al-Baqarah 2:286] , and His saying, the Most High: [At-Taghabun 64:16] . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.

فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
