In this beneficial reminder, the Shaykh explains that the Sunnah in supplication is brevity and comprehensiveness, not excessive length or artificial composition. He clarifies that many of the supplications heard in some mosques today are manufactured and recited with melodic chanting, which opposes the guidance of the Prophet, May Allah send blessings and peace upon him. The Shaykh mentions the narration reported from ʿĀʾishah, may Allah be pleased with her: “The Messenger of Allah, May Allah send blessings and peace upon him, used to choose the comprehensive supplications and leave aside anything other than them.” He explains that melodising the supplication and excessively prolonging it is a reprehensible innovation, and that these practices have no basis in the Sunnah. This short clip highlights the importance of following the prophetic guidance in duʿāʾ and avoiding newly introduced practices in the religion.
