Faraz Rabbani – Weekly Q&A Can I Recite Other Sunna Adhkar in the Prayer

			Can
		

			we recite additionally narrated Athkar in the prayer?
		

			Yes.
		

			The Athkar within the prayer are related to
		

			from our beloved Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		

			and
		

			we recite them because the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		

			Wasallam
		

			recited them.
		

			So there is merit in them and
		

			however
		

			the
		

			imam does not elongate
		

			their prayer because that is against prophetic teachings.
		

			So the imam
		

			recites just the tasbihs and
		

			they might
		

			add a little bit to that.
		

			Right so they recite the 3 tasbihs maybe
		

			a little more in order for for the
		

			followers to be able to follow but the
		

			follower
		

			after doing the 3 tasbihs
		

			and saying subhanahu wa bi'al 'aveem 3 times
		

			or subhanahu wa bi'ala 3 times cause those
		

			are emphasized sunnahs after that, if there's still
		

			time, they can make Dua or dhikr
		

			both in ruku and prostration.
		

			That is good to do
		

			for the follower
		

			and the one praying on their own
		

			even in the obligatory prayer and it is
		

			recommended it is mustahab
		

			in one's
		

			voluntary prayers in one's Sunnah and Nafil prayers
		

			and particularly in night prayer because that's where
		

			it is narrated the prophet
		

			did
		

			these athkar
		

			more regularly.
		

			So there's nothing wrong with making dhikr
		

			in one's ruku or sujud
		

			and rather one should learn the athkar related
		

			to ruku and sujud
		

			so that
		

			one can enrich one's prayer.
		

			Right?
		

			And and even the, you know, Hanafi manual
		

			such as Nurul Ilah
		

			tell us about
		

			the rulings related to these Athkar and so
		

			on. So one should recite them. And that's
		

			one of the benefits of learning
		

			because it gives one clarity about one's
		

			religious
		

			practice.
