Is there a supplication to be made before the prayer?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He asks in it: Is there a supplication to be made before the prayer?
The Shaykh : I do not know of a specific supplication to be made before the prayer. However, the time between the adhan and the iqamah is a time when supplication is answered, for it is known that supplication between the adhan and the iqamah is not rejected. It is well known to us all that after the adhan, if a person follows the mu'adhdhin and says what he says, he then says: “O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad. O Allah, Lord of this perfect call and this established prayer, grant Muhammad the intercession and the high rank, and raise him to the praiseworthy position You have promised him.”
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : And he supplicates with whatever he wishes.
The questioner : Yes.
Okay, Shaykh.
