Assalama alaikoum,
I want to know which 4 moments are these moments to say a dua i have placed here. I want to start with moment 1. In moment 1 its said between the zenith and dohr prayer. So i wondered does this mean between zenith and the adhaan or between the zenith and iqama , or between the adhaan and iqama?
Moment 2, which hour is this in friday, how do i know the time of this hour?
Moment 3, its said "and the prayer is called" and "when the prayer is called". So i wondered is this at the moment the adhaan is given by the mueddhin so usually you would repeat what he says but instead you say a dua on that time, is that the moment that is written on these hadith, because i think it is, i remember i have read it on internet on a site but i dont remember the site anymore and it seperated the two moments: "At the Adhaan" and the well known one "between the Adhaan and iqaama" and the word iqaama is not used in these hadiths so who can confirm what i think?
Moment 4, which hour is this, how can i calculste this hour, because these two hadiths are the same moment written i think, and i think its NOT the well more known moment what obviously also is a good and one of the most blessed moments to say a dua "The thirth part of the night" where Allah (swt) 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?."'
These are the moments mention above:
1. Du�aa� after the sun has passed its zenith and before Zuhr. It was narrated from �Abd-Allaah ibn al-Saa�ib (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to pray four rak'ahs after the sun had passed its zenith and before Zuhr, and he said: �This is a time when the gates of heaven are opened and I want a good deed of mine to ascend during this time.� Narrated by al-Tirmidhi and its isnaad is saheeh. See Takhreej al-Mishkaat, 1/337.
2. A certain time on Friday.
The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) mentioned Friday and said: �During it there is a time when a Muslim slave does not stand and pray and ask Allaah for something, but He will give it to him,� and he gestured with his hand to indicate how short that time is. Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 935; Muslim, 852. See also question no. 21748.
On Friday after 'Asr
The Messenger (Peace and Blessings Be upon Him) said: "Friday has twelve periods. Among them is a period when no Muslim asks Allah for anything but He grants it to him. Search for that period late
after ' Asr." [Sahihal-Jami' 8402]
3. At the Adhan
'Seek the response to your du'as when the armies meet, and the prayer is called, and when rain falls' [reported by Imam al-Shafi' in al-Umm, al-Sahihah #1469]
In another hadith; 'When the prayer is called, the doors of the skies are opened, and the du'a is answered' [al-Tayalisi in his Musnad #2106, al-Sahihah #1413]
4. 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. The Prophet (SAW) said: 'There is at night an hour, no Muslim happens to be asking Allah any matter of this world or the Hereafter, except that he will be given it, and this (occurs) every night.'
[Muslim #757]
Middle of the night:
The Messenger (Peace and Blessing be upon him) said: "The Gates of Heaven are open at midnight , and a caller calls, 'Is there a supplicant that his supplication may be granted? Is there a petitioner that his petition maybe granted? Is there a distressed person so that his distress may be removed?'
At that time, no Muslim makes a Dua but that it is answered, except for an
adulteress who trades with her body, or a person who gathers his money
unlawfully." [Sahih al-Jami' 2968]
