I already knew this, but the khateeb specified that even any specific dua we make in sujood must also be in Arabic only. That if we can’t speak Arabic we must only repeat any dhikr we know in Arabic only. \"},{\"insert\":\"\\n\\n\"},{\"attributes\":{\"color\":\"#000000\",\"background\":\"transparent\"},\"insert\":\"I clarified with him after the khutbah to ask if this only applies to fardh salat.

I ask because I know one of the best times to ask duaa for specific things is in sujood, and I am seriously considering going cross-madhab in this specific aspect to be able to make dua in a language I am currently fluent in.\"},{\"insert\":\"\\n\\n\"}]}","answer":"{\"ops\":[{\"attributes\":{\"color\":\"#000000\",\"background\":\"transparent\"},\"insert\":\"This is pretty much across all schools with some minor differences but they all do not permit just any dua in another language. In the Shafi school, if someone is not able to say dua in Arabic, the dua can be translated in english but only dua that is from Quran or hadith, not just any dua. I would advise you to do your dua immediately after you finish salat, in the same spot you prayed in because dua right after salat and in the same spot is closer to being answered.\"},{\"insert\":\"\\n\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fe30b76658b4c23281e","tag":"Salah: Other","count":138},{"_id":"668d9ff90b76658b4c232aa0","tag":"Knowledge: Madhabs","count":65},{"_id":"66e2207844ff6b092d439b57","tag":"Arabic","count":4},{"_id":"66e2207844ff6b092d439b5a","tag":"During Prayer","count":1}],"createdOn":"2024-09-11T22:58:00.390Z"}
