Question
Can you dedicate a two rakaat prayer of a fast (sawm) for something?
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Your question is unclear. Are you referring to making a vow that if so and so happens, I shall pray two rakaats or keep a fast or you referring to something else? Kindly explain in detail.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
