Question:
What is meant by "those who transgress" in the verse[Al-A'raf 7:55]?
Answer:
The one who transgresses is the one who supplicates with sin and severing of family ties. Some of the Salaf said: if one raises his voice without need, but the reality is that transgression is: the one who supplicates with sin, such as supplicating to Allah to help him with zina or with theft, this is transgression, or supplicating against people without right, supplicating against another without right, this is sin, or against his relatives without right, this is severing of family ties. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Mishkat al-Masabih 2259.
And raising the voice in supplication without a cause, leaving it is more preferable and safer; because some of the Salaf considered it part of transgression if one raises his voice.
As for if he is an imam who raises his voice, such as: in the qunut: the qunut of calamities and the qunut of witr for the imam; he raises his voice, and in the khutbah he supplicates until the people say "Ameen" for him.
But his supplication alone, if he is alone: the sunnah is secrecy, in his prostration or at the end of the prayer or otherwise, secrecy is better, as Allah the Exalted said: [Al-A'raf: 55].

Any Muslim who makes a supplication containing nothing which is sinful or which involves breaking ties of relationship will be given for it by God one of three
