A: Saying Du`a' by the Imam in a loud voice and then the Ma'mums
(people being led by an Imam in Prayer) saying:"Amen" is considered a
Bid`ah (innovation in religion). Each worshippermust supplicate to
Allah individually after the invocations, or, even better, before
Taslim (salutation of peace ending the Prayer), after seeking refuge
with Allah from the punishment of Hellfire and of the grave, and from
the Fitnah (temptation) of life and death, and the Fitnah of
Al-Masih-ul-Dajjal (the Antichrist); the worshipper can say any
supplications that are reported in Shari`ah (Islamic law), such as: O
Allah, I seek refuge with You from miserliness, and I seek refuge with
You from cowardice, and I seek refuge with You from reaching old age,
(Part No. 9; Page No. 187)
and I seek refuge with You from the Fitnah of lifeand the punishment
of the grave; O Allah, help me to remember You and thank You and
enable me to worship You properly; O Allah, I have done injustice to
myself greatly and there is no one who forgives sins but You, so grant
me forgiveness from You and have mercy upon me, O You are the
Most-Forgiving, the Most-Merciful. O Allah forgive the sins that I
have committed in the past and those I will commit in the future,
those I committed in secret and those I committed in public, and all I
have exceeded in, andwhat You know about memore than I do, You are the
Advancer and the Deferrer, there is no God who deserves worship but
You; O Allah, You are the Pardoner, You love pardoning, so pardon me;
O Allah, make my heart and my actions righteous;O Allah, forgive me
and my parents (if they are Muslims), etc.
