The best supplications that a Muslim must repeat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We conclude this meeting, Your Eminence the Shaykh, with a question: What are the best supplications that a Muslim must repeat, whether in prayer or otherwise?
Answer:
The best dhikr is "La ilaha illa Allah," and the best du'a' is "La ilaha illa Allah." However, there are specific supplications. And the best du'a' is:[Al-Baqarah 2:201] One repeats this at the end of the prayer, in prostration, and in his other times; because it is a comprehensive supplication. Likewise: -comprehensive supplications- Sahih Ibn Hibban 7:264.
And in prostration he says:; because he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan Abi Dawud 875Sahih (Al-Albani), and the other hadith: Sunan Abi Dawud 876Sahih (Al-Albani).
So he should increase in the good supplications: asking for Paradise, seeking refuge with Allah from the Fire, asking for forgiveness: "O Allah, You are the Forgiver, You love forgiveness, so forgive me," "O Allah, rectify my heart and my deeds," "O Allah, forgive me and my parents." He should seek out the appropriate supplications.

Answer:
The best dhikr is "La ilaha illa Allah," and the best du'a' is "La ilaha illa Allah." However, there are specific supplications. And the best du'a' is:
Our Lord, give us in this world [that which is] good and in the Hereafter [that which is] good and protect us from the punishment of the Fire."
رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِO Allah, forgive me all my sins, the small and the large, the first and the last, the open and the secret. O Allah, I ask You for Your pleasure and Paradise, and I seek refuge in You from Your anger and the Fire.
اللهم اغفر لي ذنبي كله، دقّه وجلّه، وأوله وآخره، وعلانيته وسره، اللهم إني أسألك رضاك والجنة وأعوذ بك من سخطك والنارO Allah, I ask You for Paradise and what brings one near to it in word and deed, and I seek refuge in You from the Fire and what brings one near to it in word and deed.
اللهم أسألك الجنة وما قرب إليها من قول وعمل، وأعوذ بك من النار وما قرب إليها من قول وعملAnd in prostration he says:
O Allah, forgive my sin, forgive me, have mercy on me, guide me, provide for me, and keep me in health. O Allah, forgive me all my sins, the small and the large, the first and the last, the open and the secret. O Allah, forgive me, my parents, and all the Muslims. Our Lord, give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.
اللهم اغفر لي ذنبي واغفر لي وارحمني واهدني وارزقني وعافني، اللهم اغفر لي ذنبي كله، دقَّه وجلّه، وأوله وآخره، وعلانيته وسره، اللهم اغفر لي ولوالدي ولجميع المسلمين، ربنا آتنا في الدنيا حسنةً وفي الآخرة حسنةً وقنا عذاب النارThe nearest a servant come to his Lord is when he is prostrating himself, so make supplication often.
أقرب ما يكون العبد من ربه وهو ساجد فأكثروا من الدعاءand as to prostration, make supplication with exertion in it, that is worthy of being accepted.
وأما السجود فاجتهدوا في الدعاء فقمنٌ أن يستجاب لكمSo he should increase in the good supplications: asking for Paradise, seeking refuge with Allah from the Fire, asking for forgiveness: "O Allah, You are the Forgiver, You love forgiveness, so forgive me," "O Allah, rectify my heart and my deeds," "O Allah, forgive me and my parents." He should seek out the appropriate supplications.
