The prohibition against reciting the Qur'an in prostration has been mentioned; is it permissible for the one praying to supplicate in his prostration with the supplications that came in the Qur'an?

The questioner : I say that regarding the supplications that came in explicit Qur'anic texts, perhaps the affirmative ruling was close to being clear, but some scholars say that the prohibition was general, whether one recites or supplicates in prostration, especially with the Qur'anic supplications. He said the prohibition in them was general .

The Shaykh : Prohibition of what?
The student : Of reciting the Qur'an.

The Shaykh : Reciting the Qur'an, yes.
The student : So when he said this, the prohibition was general and it also contained a strengthening—certainly. He said, nevertheless, one should not supplicate to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) with those Qur'anic supplications because the prohibition is general. But he added a qualification, saying that one may distinguish between the obligatory prayer and the voluntary prayer by making these supplications in the voluntary prayer, and placing pauses between the supplications to make it clear that the intention is supplication and not recitation, even though it is clear that the one supplicating is not reciting the Qur'an.

The Shaykh : Yes, he distinguished between the obligatory and the voluntary on the basis of what?
The student : He did not mention the evidence.

The Shaykh : Let us start with the subject ourselves. The prohibition against reciting the Qur'an while in prostration—you said, and you are right, that it is general. Now, was the scope of this generality such that it includes even the Qur'anic verse that contains a supplication? Does this generality not include the voluntary prayer?
The student : It includes it.

The Shaykh : So where did they get the distinction from? It appears, and Allah knows best, that the matter is either that the prohibition is generalized to include the voluntary prayer and include supplicating with the verse, or that the prohibition against reciting the Qur'an while in prostration is specified to be for mere recitation. As for if it is with the intention of supplicating with what is in the verse, it does not fall under it. I say it is either this or that. Many scholars note the difference between reciting the verse or for the sake of the verse, and supplicating with it. Even those who are strict regarding the prohibition of reciting the Qur'an while in a state of major ritual impurity or while menstruating said that if a man or woman recites a verse with the intention of supplication, that is permissible because she did not intend recitation. Based on this distinction, it can also be said that although there is no difference in the prohibition between reciting in the prostration of the obligatory prayer and reciting in the prostration of the voluntary prayer, we say that supplicating with the verse is not the same as reciting it for mere recitation. And on this basis, if someone says in prostration: , here the truth is that all that can be said is that there are two generalities: one that includes the prohibition of reciting the Qur'an in prostration, and one that commands supplication from what is transmitted, especially if it is Qur'an. Which of the two generalities takes precedence? This would be a matter of what? Independent legal reasoning and taking and rejecting? Does it wash or not?
The student : Yes, yes, it is the original question. May Allah reward you with good. It washes, but the issue of praying—I do not know. It seems I thought, does it wash or not? The same answer, our Shaykh?

The Shaykh: Yes.
