The Prescribed Supplications in the Night Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks Your Eminence about the supplication that the worshipper recites at night?

Answer:
It is recommended for the worshipper to increase in supplication with good supplications. Among the best supplications is: “O Allah, You are the Pardoner and You love pardon, so pardon me.” Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: “O Messenger of Allah! If I encounter the Night of Decree, what should I say in it?” He said: “Say:
Allahumma innaka 'afuwwun tuhibbul-'afwa, fa'fu 'anni (O Allah, You are Forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me)اللهم إنك عفو تحب العفو فاعف عني
Sunan Ibn Majah 3850Sahih (Darussalam)
.”
Among the good supplications is asking Allah for His pleasure and Paradise, and seeking refuge in Allah from His anger and the Fire. Among the good supplications is saying: “O 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.” One asks his Lord for every good. The door is open, and praise be to Allah... The Lord says:
Is there anyone to invoke Me, so that I may respond to invocation?من يدعوني؛ فأستجيب له
Sahih al-Bukhari 1145
And He says in His great Book:
Call upon Me; I will respond to you.ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُم
[Ghafir: 60].
The believer should seek out the good, comprehensive supplications and supplicate to his Lord with them at night, by day, at the end of the prayer, in prostration, when breaking the fast, and at the pre-dawn meal. He asks his Lord for the good of this world and the Hereafter. He should seek out the supplications narrated in the supplications of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and they are found in the books of the Sunnah and in the books of dhikr and supplications. We have compiled a concise, brief book in which we mentioned a collection of the good dhikr and supplications with which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to supplicate. We named it *Tuhfat al-Akhyar fi ma yata'allaq bi al-ad'iyyah wa al-adhkar* (A Gift for the Righteous Regarding Supplications and Dhikr), and it is distributed by the Department of Ifta. We ask Allah to make it beneficial for the Muslims. Yes.

The presenter: O Allah, amen. May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
