   Times of Supplication There are certain times

 supplication is more likely to be accepted by Allah

 (SWT) as the Prophet (SAW) said. These times are:

 1. The Last Third Of The Night: Abu Huraira (Ra) narrated that

 Allah�s Messenger (SAW) said: In the last third of every night our Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer) (Allah (SWT)

) descends to the lowermost heaven and says; �Who is

 calling Me, so that I may answer him? Who is asking Me so that may I grant him? Who is seeking forgiveness from Me so that I may forgive him?.� (Bukhari) 

2. Late at night,

 when people are sleeping and busy with worldly pleasures Allah (SWT) gives the believers an opportunity, or an

 answer hour if they can fight sleep and invoke Allah (SWT) for whatever they need. 

3. Between Adhan and Iqama: Anas (Ra) narrated that Allahs Messenger (SAW) said: �A supplication made between the Adhan and Iqama is not rejected.� (An-Nasai and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (sound)) 

4. An Hour On Friday: Narrated Abu Huraira (Ra): Allahs Messenger (SAW) talked about Friday and said: �There is an hour on Friday and if a Muslim gets it while offering Salat (prayer) and asks something from Allah (SWT), then Allah (SWT) will definitely meet his demand.� And he (the Prophet (SAW) pointed out the shortness of that time with his hands. (Bukhari) Some said this hour is from the time the Imam (prayers leader) enters the mosque on Fridays prayer until the prayer is over where others have said that it is the last hour of the day. (Note: when we say an hour here we do not mean the hour everyone knows (60 minutes) but an unspecified period of time because the time counters which we use today came after the Prophet (SAW) had died 

5. While Drinking Zamzam Water: Jaber (Ra) narrated that Allahs Messenger (SAW) said: �Zamzam water is for what it is drunk for.� (Ahmed and Ibn Majah) This means that when you drink Zamzam water you may ask Allah (SWT) for anything you like to gain or benefit from this water such as healing from illness.... etc. 

6. While Prostrating: Abu Huraira (Ra) narrated that Allahs Messenger (SAW), said: �The nearest a slave can be to his Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer) is when he is prostrating, so invoke (supplicate) Allah (SWT) much. (Muslim) When a Muslim is in his Salat (prayer) he is facing Allah (SWT) and when he prostrates he is the nearest he can be to Allah (SWT) so it is best to invoke Allah (SWT) at this time. 

7. When Waking Up at Night: Narrated Ubada Bin As-Samit that Allahs Messenger (SAW) 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 (SWT) He is the only one who has no partners. His is the kingdom and all the praises are for Allah (SWT) All the glories are for Allah(SWT) And none has the right to be worshipped but Allah (SWT) and Allah(SWT) is the most Great and there is neither might nor power except with Allah (SWT) and then says, Allahumma ighfir li (O Allah! Forgive me) or invokes Allah (SWT), he will be responded to and if he makes ablution and performs Salat (prayer), his Salat (prayer) will be accepted. (Bukhari)

 8. At The End Of The Obligatory �Salat� : Narrated Abu Omamah (Ra): that Allahs Messenger (SAW) was asked, O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is heard (by Allah (SWT), 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)

 9. The Night Of �Qadr� (Decree): This night is the greatest night of the year. This is the night which the almighty Allah (SWT) said about it, �The night of Al-Qadar (Decree) is better than a thousand month.� (Quran 97:3) 

10. During The Rain: Narrated Sahel Ibn Saad (Ra): that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: Two will not be rejected, Supplication after the Adhan (call of prayer) and at the time of the rain. (Al-Hakim and Abo Dawood) The time of the rain is a time of mercy from Allah (SWT) so, one should take advantage of this time when Allah (SWT) is having mercy on His slaves.

 11. At the Adhan: (See the previous paragraph

 12. The One Who Is Suffering Injustice: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said to Moaad Ibn Jabal (Ra), Beware of the supplication of the unjustly treated, because there is no shelter or veil between it (the supplication of the one who is suffering injustice) and Allah (SWT) (Al-Bukhari and Muslim) The One who is suffering injustice is heard by Allah (SWT) when he invokes Allah (SWT) to retain his rights from the unjust one. Allah (SWT) has sworn to help the one who is suffering from injustice sooner or later as the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said. 

13. The Traveler: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said; Three supplications will not be rejected (by Allah (SWT)), the supplication of the parent for his child, the supplication of the one who is fasting, and the supplication of the traveler,. (Al-Bayhaqi and approved by Al-Albani) During travel supplication is heard by Allah (SWT) if the trip is for a good reason, but if the trip is for a bad intention or to perform illegal things (making sins) this will not apply to it.

 14. The Fasting: (See the previous paragraph)

 15. The Parents Supplication for His Child: (See the previous paragraph)

 16. On The Day Of Arafa: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: The best supplication is the supplication on the day of Arafa. (At-Tirmidhi and Malik)

	Jazaka Allah Khairn. Tell us more. We hope every one gets the benefit from these Hadithes. The prophet, peace be upon him, asks Allah Ta'ala to make his face so bright; the one who listens to Hadeath, gets it and then tells it to others.. Edited by Full of Hopes - 14 August 2009 at 11:40am
