Fatwa #1629122 February 2008United Kingdom
“Allahummagh fir li war hamni” between the two Sajdahs
Question
my question is, in prayer when you prostate and then sit up, do we recite anything like 'allahumma magfirili war hamni' before going in to the second prostration and then before gettin up for the second rakat do we sit recite that and then get up?
Answer
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
One may recite the dua “Allahummagh fir li war hamni” “Oh Allah, forgive and have mercy on me” between the two sajdas (prostrations).
The dua should not be read after the second sajda before standing up for the next rakat.
And Allah knows best
Wassalam
