Supplication is one of the most beloved deeds of God Almighty, and it differs according to the different times and times. The purified Sunnah has indicated that there are some times when the response to supplication is closer than others, such as: After the prayers, at the time of the call, in the middle of the night, at dawn, during prostration, and on Friday (especially the last hour of it), in the hadith the Prophet - may God bless him and grant him peace - says: (Indeed, on Friday there is an hour with which a Muslim servant does not agree, during which he asks God Nothing, except that he gave it to him),[1] The scholars differed as to exactly what this hour was; Among them are those who said: It is after the afternoon prayer without restriction, and among the scholars are those who said: It is the period between when the imam sits on the pulpit until he finishes the prayer, and among them are those who said: It is the last hour of it before sunset, and some scholars, including Imam Al-Shawkani, favored this opinion and mentioned it. This saying is the strongest of the sayings and it is the doctrine of the majority of the Companions, Followers, and Imams. In any case, the Muslim strives on that day to supplicate and supplicate to his Lord - Blessed and Most High - and is keen to supplicate according to what is narrated from the Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace - because it contains goodness, benefit and blessing.[ 2] Below is a collection of some of the supplications that a Muslim can pray:
