The ruling on supplication after the tashahhud and before the taslim in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to make du'a' after every obligatory prayer? And what is the meaning of the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "Which supplication is the most heard?" He said:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3499Da’if (Darussalam)?
Answer:
Supplication at the end of the prayer is recommended and a sunnah, a means of drawing near to Allah before the taslim; this is the best. One should supplicate with what Allah has made easy for him before the taslim, seeking good in this world and the Hereafter. Among the best supplications before the taslim is seeking refuge in Allah from the punishment of Hell, from the punishment of the grave, from the trial of life and death, and from the trial of the Dajjal. And so one says:Sunan Abi Dawud 1522Sahih (Al-Albani) Sahih al-Bukhari 6326 Sunan Abi Dawud 1509Sahih (Al-Albani) Sunan an-Nasa'i 5445Sahih (Darussalam) All these supplications are authentic and established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and it is recommended to supplicate with them at the end of the prayer.
And the supplicationSahih al-Bukhari 7387, 7388 is made at the end of the prayer and at all times; because when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked by al-Ṣiddiq, he said: "O Messenger of Allah! Teach me a supplication I can make in my prayer—and in one narration, in my home." He said: Sahih al-Bukhari 834.
And this includes supplication at the end of the prayer, in prostration, and between the two prostrations; all of it falls under this. And so it is in the remaining times, in his home, on the road, in the middle of the night, and so on. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.

اللهم إني ظلمت نفسي ظلمًا كثيرًا، ولا يغفر الذنوب إلا أنت، فاغفر لي مغفرة من عندك، وارحمني إنك أنت الغفور الرحيم"O Allah, forgive me my former and latter sins, what I have kept secret and what I have done openly, and what I have done extravagance; and what You know better than I do. You are the Advancer, the Delayer, there is no god but You."
