The sayingSahih al-Bukhari 1154 then he supplicated, meaning the supplication after the qunut...?
Answer:
It is hoped for him, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 5060Sahih (Al-Albani).
This is among the causes of acceptance. If one recites this dhikr and then says, “O Allah, forgive me,” or supplicates, “O Allah, rectify me,” “O Allah, make it easy for me to have a righteous wife,” “O Allah, grant me good offspring,” or the like, this is among the causes of acceptance. If he stands up with this, performs wudu, and prays, his prayer is accepted. This is in the two Sahihs from the hadith of 'Ubadah, a great and authentic hadith.
Q: Is the supplication before the prayer or after?
The Shaykh: Before the prayer, after the prayer, and during the prayer, all of it.
The saying
Whoever gets up at night
مَنْ تَعارّ من الليل وذكر اللهAnswer:
It is hoped for him, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
If anyone is alarmed while asleep and he says when awakes: there is no god but Allah alone Who has no partner, to whom dominion belongs, to whom praise is due, and who has power over everything (omnipotent). Glory be to Allah, and praise be to Allah, and there is no god but Allah, and then he prays: O my Lord, forgive me. Abu Dawud said : Al-Walid’s version has; and he prays, his prayer will be answered. If he gets up, performs ablution, and prays, his prayer will be accepted.
ما مِن عبدٍ يتعارّ من الليل -يعني يستيقظ- فيقول: لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له، له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيء قدير، سبحان الله، والحمد لله، ولا إله إلا الله، والله أكبر، ولا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله، ثم يقول: اللهم اغفر لي، أو يدعو؛ فيستجاب له، فإن قام وصلى قُبلت صلاتهThis is among the causes of acceptance.
