Is seeking forgiveness prescribed in the sitting between the two Friday sermons?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the sitting between the two Friday sermons, it is said, "I say this instead of saying, 'I seek Allah's forgiveness, I seek Allah's forgiveness.' Is seeking forgiveness prescribed in this place? If not, what is prescribed? And is supplication after the sermon reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? Three questions.
The Shaykh : The first question.
The questioner : Is seeking forgiveness prescribed in this place?
The Shaykh: And that is...
The questioner : I seek Allah's forgiveness.
Another student: The first sitting.
The Shaykh : The place, the place.
The questioner : After he finishes the first sermon.

The Shaykh : That is not authentically reported. If the preacher does it occasionally, there is no harm. But making it a regular practice is not part of the Sunnah.
