Q: The inquirer asks: Is it permissible to supplicate in a loud voice

Prayer) says the Du`a' (supplication) and the worshippers say: Ameen?
~
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.

1a] Ruling on saying Du`a' after Salah with the Imam(Fatwas of Nur `Ala Al-Darb )

because the Prophet never raised his hands while supplicating after the obligatory Prayer. However, there is no problem with raising your hands while supplicating after supererogatory Prayers athome, or
(Part No. 9; Page No. 186)
any other time, because supplicating and raising the hands are reasons of fulfillment of Du`a'. But you should not raise your hands when the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not. The Prophet never raised his hands after the obligatory Prayers; he used to supplicate but without raising his hands. You can also supplicate between the two prostrations, but without raising the hands; and during the Friday Khutbah(sermon) too. If the Imam supplicates during the Friday Khutbah or the `EidKhutbah, he should not raise his hands, unless he is performing Salat-ul-Istisqa' (Prayer for rain).

1] Ruling on saying Du`a' after Salah with the Imam(Fatwas of Nur `Ala Al-Darb )

1]
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

Help required in understanding a hadeeth

Assalamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu, and ramadhan kareem!
I stumbled across this hadeeth in Saheeh Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 55 (Prophets), Number 546. Read the emboldened part in sha Allah, the rest doesn't matter.
Narrated by 'Anas, When 'Abdullah bin Salam heardthe arrival of the Prophet at Medina, he came to himand said, "I am going to ask you about three things which nobody knows except a prophet: What is the first portent of the Hour? What will be the first meal taken by the people of Paradise? Why does a child resemble its father, and why does it resemble its maternal uncle" Allah's Apostle said, "Gabriel has just now told me of their answers." 'Abdullah said,"He (i.e. Gabriel), from amongst all the angels, is the enemy of the Jews." Allah's Apostle said, "The first portent of the Hour will be a fire that will bring together the peoplefrom the east to the west;the first meal of the people of Paradise will be Extra-lobe (caudate lobe) of fish-liver. As for the resemblance of the child to its parents: If a man has sexual intercourse with his wife and gets discharge first, the child will resemble the father,and if the woman gets discharge first, the child will resemble her. " On that 'Abdullah bin Salam said, "I testify that you arethe Apostle of Allah." 'Abdullah bin Salam further said, "O Allah's Apostle! The Jews are liars, and if they should come to know about my conversion to Islam before you ask them (about me), they would tell a lie about me." The Jews came to Allah's Apostle and 'Abdullah went inside the house. Allah's Apostle asked (the Jews), "What kind of man is 'Abdullah bin Salam amongst you?" They replied, "He is the most learned person amongst us, and the best amongst us, and the son of the bestamongst us." Allah's Apostle said, "What do you think if he embraces Islam (will you do as he does)?" The Jews said,"May Allah save him from it." Then 'Abdullah bin Salam came out in front of them saying, "I testify that None has the right tobe worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah." Thereupon they said, "He is the evilest among us, and the son of the evilest amongst us," and continued talking badly ofhim.
Is the translation of the hadeeth (the emboldenedpart, more specifically) accurate? There are some claims that the correct/literal translation doesn't refer to the sequence of orgasms, but rather the dominance of one fluid over the other. Is this accurate?
Also, I read the reply available on islamtoday, itappeals to our present lack of knowledge regarding genetics to answer this issue. But my heart doesn't find tranquility in merely an appeal to ignorance, a stronger answer would beof benefit in sha Allahu wa ta'la.
JazakAllahu khayran in advance,
Wassalamu 'alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu.
P.S. I'm sorry for posting such a question on Ramadhan, but doubts don't have any time/placerestriction, as is common knowledge.
