Sunnah method of Dua after Fardh Salaah
Question
I want to know the Way how to do duas just like how the Imams of all masajid recite fix set of duas with a fix pattern with muazzin saying alfatiha in between the duas after the Fard Namaz. Please tell me in which book can I find this method of doing dua?
Answer
The sunnah method of Duaa after fardh salaah is that each person should make a silent Duaa individually. This was the general practice of Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu anhum). Refer to Hizbul A'azam, a kitaab prepared on the various Duaas reported from Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and the salaf (the pious).
And Allah Ta'ala knows best.
