Translation text: السؤال: هذه [فيها عدد] أسئلة، والسؤال الأول يقول: إن من أحد شروط الدعاء [هو] التكرير ثلاثاً، The question: This [message] has several questions, and the first question says: one of the conditions of dua’ (supplication) is to be repeated three times. ‎ يقول: وقد قرأ الخطيب في يوم الجمعة وذكر الدعاء مرة واحدة بعد [الخطبة في المسجد]، He says: and, on Friday the khateeb (the one who gives the sermon) read [his sermon] and said the dua’ (supplication) only once after the sermon in the Masjid. ‎هل يجوز هذا؟ أرجو توضيح ذلك. Is this permissible? I would like a clarification for that. ‎الجواب: ليس الأمر كما فهم هذا الأخ، [لأنه] من شروط الدعاء أن يكرر ثلاثاً، بل هذا من الآداب التي ليست بشرط The answer: The matter is not as this brother has understood, that repeating the supplication three times is a condition. بل هذا من الآداب التي ليست بشرط Rather, this is one of the etiquettes that is not a condition. ‎ويجوز للإنسان أن يدعو الله تعالى مرةً واحدة، أي: ألا يكرر الجملة التي دعا بها، And it is permissible for a person to make dua’ (supplication) to Allah the Exalted once. Meaning, that he does not repeat the statement that he made dua’ with. ‎إنما تكرارها من باب الأدب لا من باب الشروط. The repetition is an aspect of etiquette, not a condition. ‎لكن من المهم أن يعلم [أنه] من شروط الدعاء أن يكون الإنسان مؤمناً بمن دعا وأنه قادر على إجابة دعوته، However, it is important that he knows that from the conditions of dua’ is that a person believes in the One that he is supplicating to and believes that He can answer his supplication. ‎وكذلك من الآداب المهمة جداً اجتناب الحرام في الأكل ‎والشرب والملبس؛ Also, from the very important etiquettes is to avoid that which is haram (forbidden) in eating, drinking, and clothing. ‎فإن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ذكر الرجل يطيل السفر أشعث أغبر، يمد يديه إلى السماء: يا رب، يا رب، For the Prophet ﷺ mentioned, “A man who makes a long journey in a disheveled and dusty state, who stretches out his hands to the heaven saying, ‘O my Rabb (Lord), O my Rabb’.” ‎ وكل هذه من أسباب إجابة الدعاء، And all of these (aforementioned things) are reasons for the dua’ to be answered. يقول عليه الصلاة والسلام: «ومطعمه حرام، ومأكله حرام، وغذي بالحرام، فأنَّى يستجاب لذلك». He said ﷺ: “Whereas his food is haram (unlawful), his drink is haram, his clothes are haram, and his nourishment is haram. How can then his supplication be answered?!” ‎فاستبعد النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إجابة الدعاء لهذا الرجل الذي وُجدت منه أسباب إجابة الدعاء، So, the Prophet ﷺ ruled out that the supplication would be answered for this man from whom the reasons for answering the supplication were found. ‎استبعد منه الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم إجابة دعوته لوجود هذا المانع القوي؛ وهو كونه يتغذى بالحرام ويلبسه. The Prophet ﷺ ruled out that his supplication would be answered because of a strong matter which prevents it, which is that he nourishes himself and wears that which is haram (forbidden). ‎على كل حال فِعْلُ الخطيب [وهو] أنه دعا مرةً واحدة ‎في أثناء الخطبة لا بأس به ‌‏In any case, there is no problem with the action of the khateeb, which is making dua’ one time during the sermon. سلسلة فتاوى نور على الدرب لفضيلة الشيخ العلامة محمد بن صالح بن عثيمين الشريط: 2 فتوى: 2 The Series of Fatwas of Noorun Ala Addarb for his eminence the scholar sheikh Muhammad Ibn Salih Ibn Uthaymeen Tape: 2 Fatwa: 2 ----------------------------------------------------- Rabbaniyeen ربانيين 🔴اليوتيوب🔴👇 https://youtube.com/channel/UCSZQ94R_9fXNumssaa5BAkg 🔴الانستجرام🔴👇 https://www.instagram.com/rabbaniyeen/ 🔴التيليغرام🔴👇 https://t.me/Rabbaniyeen
