Is the prayer of need a recommended practice?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on the prayer of need? Because I heard from some of the brothers that it is a recommended practice based on the hadith reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):?
Answer:
I do not know of this except the prayer of repentance and the prayer for guidance in a decision. The prayer of repentance is when one commits a sin, then purifies himself, prays two units, and asks his Lord to forgive him, and Allah promises him forgiveness. The prayer for guidance in a decision is when one intends to do something and it is difficult for him, he seeks guidance from his Lord, prays two units, then seeks guidance after the closing salam, raising his hands and saying: and naming it: marriage, travel, or the like Sahih al-Bukhari 1166. This is what is known regarding the prayer for guidance in a decision. As for every need, I do not recall anything established in this matter. Yes.

Whoever performs ablution and completes it, then prays two units and perfects them, Allah will give him what he asked for, whether soon or later.

اللهم إني أستخيرك بعلمك، وأستقدرك بقدرتك، وأسألك من فضلك العظيم، فإنك تعلم ولا أعلم، وتقدر ولا أقدر، وأنت علام الغيوب، اللهم إن كنت تعلم أن هذا الأمرgood for my religion and my subsistence and in my Hereafter--(or said: If it is better for my present and later needs)--Then You ordain it for me and make it easy for me to get, And then bless me in it, and if You know that this job is harmful to me In my religion and subsistence and in the Hereafter--(or said: If it is worse for my present and later needs)--Then keep it away from me and let me be away from it. And ordain for me whatever is good for me, And make me satisfied with it
خير لي في ديني، ومعاشي، وعاقبة أمري؛ فيسره لي، ثم بارك لي فيه، وإن كنت تعلم أن هذا الأمر شر لي في ديني، ومعاشي، وعاقبة أمري؛ فاصرفه عني، واصرفني عنه، وقدر لي الخير حيث كان، ثم أرضني بهThe presenter: May Allah reward you and reward you with good.
