Q: Tell us about the supplication after performing Salah (Prayer) with the Imam (the one who leads congregationalPrayer), may Allah rewardyou with the best!
A: Each person must supplicate individually during or after Salah, during Sujud (Prostration)and after reciting Tashahhud (testification recited in the sitting position in the last unit of Prayer), for himself and for other Muslims, and for his Muslim parents, etc. Allthese are states in which Du`a' (supplication) is permissible: during Sujud, before Taslim (salutation of peace ending the Prayer), after invoking Allah's Blessings and Peace upon the Prophet, and between the two prostrations. The worshipper can ask Allah in these states to forgive him and his parents, or say any possible good supplications, especially those that have been authentically reported. Hecan invoke Allah's Forgiveness between the two prostrations, saying: O Allah forgive me, have mercy upon me, guide me, assist me and provideme with sustenance; during Sujud, he can say any supplication that he wishes, because the Prophet (peace be upon him) said in the authentic Hadith: The nearest a servant comes to his Lord is when he is prostrating himself, so say as many supplications as possible (in this state).
He also said
(Part No. 9; Page No. 184)
(peace be upon him): As far as Ruku` (bowing) is concerned, glorify in it theLord, and while prostrating yourselves sayas many supplications as possible, for it is likely that your supplications will be answered. The Prophet (peace be upon him) also used to say during Sujud: O Allah, forgive all my sins; the small sins and the big ones, those I committed in the past and those I will commit in the future, and those I commit in public and those I commitin secret. This is one of thebest supplications. When the Prophet (peace be upon him) taught his Companions the Tashahhud, he said: “Thenlet him choose from the supplications what he loves best and let him supplicate (with it),” that is, at the end of Salah, before Taslim, after reciting the Tashahhud. Then the worshipper should invoke Allah's Blessings and peace upon the Prophet (peace be upon him) and seeks refuge with Allah, as the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to do, from fourthings, saying: O Allah, I seek refuge with You from torment in Hellfire, from punishment in the grave, from the Fitnah (temptation) of life and death, and from the evil of the Fitnah of Al-Masih-ul-Dajjal (the Antichrist). The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to seek refuge with Allah from these four things and to order people to seek refuge with Allah from them. It is, therefore, Sunnah (supererogatory act of worship following the example of the Prophet) for the worshipper, whether in the obligatory or the supererogatory Salah, to say: I seek refuge with Allah from the torment of Hellfire, from the punishment of the grave, from the Fitnah (trial) of life and death, and from the evil of the Fitnah of Al-Masih-ul-Dajjal (the Antichrist); or:
(Part No. 9; Page No. 185)
"O Allah, I seek refuge with you", both ways are narrated in the Hadith; then to ask Allah for Jannah (Paradise) and to seek refuge with Him from Hellfire, saying: O Allah, grant us what is good during our life and in the Hereafter, and protect us from torture in Hellfire, O Allah forgive me and my parents - if they are Muslims - O Allah I have been greatly unjustto myself, and there is no one who forgives sins but You, so grant me forgiveness from You and have mercy upon me, O You the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful; O Allah, help me to remember Youand thank You, and enable me to worship Youproperly. These are all good supplications. Also from Jawami` Al-Kalim (concise yet most comprehensive expressions) that the Prophet (peace be upon him) told Mu`adh (may Allah be pleased with him): Do not miss supplicating after every Salah saying: (Allahumma a‘inni ‘ala dhikrika wa-shukrika wa-husna ‘ibadatika (O Allah, help me to remember You and thank You and enable me to worship You properly) When the Prophet (peace be upon him) finished reciting the Tashahhud, he used to seek refuge with Allah from the torture of Hellfire, punishment in the grave, the Fitnah of life and death, and the Fitnah of Al-Masih-ul-Dajjal. Then, Oyou servant of Allah, whether man or woman, you can say any Du`a' thatyou wish, during Sujud, atthe end of Salah before Taslim; and if you recite the invocations that are to be said after Salah, you can also supplicate after Taslim in secret, between you and your Lord, without raising your hands after the obligatoryPrayer, because .../ - - - :-> Transtors: 1.http://free-translation.imtranslator.net/lowres.asp 2.http://translate.google.com/m?twu=1&hl=en&vi=m&sl=auto&tl=en
