The best times to make Dua(supplications) ! *** While Prostrating : Abu Hurairah (Radhi Allahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), said: The nearest a slave can be to his Lord is when he is prostrating, so invoke (supplicate) Allah much in it. [Muslim, abu Dawud, an-Nasai and others, Sahih al-Jami #1175] When a Muslim is in his Salat (prayer) he is facing Allah and when he prostrates he is the nearest he can be to Allah so it is best to invoke Allah at this time. It is said that while in prostration, one should not ask for worldly needs (ie a nice car, a new job, etc), but for the Hereafter. *** When Waking Up at Night : Narrated Ubada Bin As-Samit(radhi Allahu anhu) that Allah’s Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said: Whomever wakes up at night and says La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la shrika lahu lahulmulku, wa lahul hamdu, wa huwa ala kulli shaiin qadir. Alhamdu lillahi, wa subhanallahi wa la ilaha illallahu, wallah akbir, wa la hawla wala quwata illa billah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah He is the only one who has no partners. His is the kingdom and all the praises are for Allah,All the glories are for Allah, And none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Allah is the most Great and there is neither might nor power except with Allah and then says, Allahumma ighfir li (O Allah! Forgive me) or invokes Allah , he will be responded to and if he makes ablution and performs Salat (prayer), his Salat (prayer) will be accepted. [Sahih al-Bukhari] Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3414 *** At The End Of The Obligatory Salat : Narrated Abu Omamah (Radhi Allahu anhu): that Allah’s Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) was asked, O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is heard (by Allah), he said the end of the night and at the end of the obligatory Salat (prayer) [at-Tirmidhi]. This time is after saying At-tahyat , and before making Tasleem (finishing prayer).Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3499. *** The Night Of Qadr (Decree) : This night is the greatest night of the year. This is the night which the almighty Allah said about it, The night of Al-Qadar (Decree) is better than a thousand months. {Surah Al-Qadar 97:3} The Night of Decree is one of the odd nights of the last ten nights of the blessed month of Ramadan. The angels descend down to the earth, and the earth is overwhelmed with peace and serenity until the break of dawn and when he doors of Paradise are opened, the worshiper is encouraged to turn to Allah to ask for his needs for this world and the Hereafter. *** During The Rain: Narrated Sahel Ibn Saad (Radhi Allahu anhu): that the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said: Two will not be rejected, Supplication when the Adhan (call of prayer) is being called, and at the time of the rain. [Al-Hakim 2: 114, and Abu Dawud #2540, ibn Majah] Seek the response to your duas when the armies meet, and the prayer is called, and when rain falls [reported by Imam al-Shafi in al-Umm, al-Sahihah #1469]. The time of the rain is a time of mercy from Allah (Subhanahu wa taala) so, one should take advantage of this time when Allah (azza wa jal) is having mercy on His slaves.
