Variations in the Formulas of the Opening Supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, he says: In my prayer, regarding the opening supplication, am I required to stick to one specific formula? And if I recite one opening supplication in voluntary prayers and a different one in obligatory prayers, is that sufficient?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, provided it is established. If this opening supplication is from what is established from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), then there is nothing wrong with you opening your prayer with it. Yes.
