It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both), he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated in this mosque, meaning the Mosque of Fath, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. On Wednesday, between the two prayers, the supplication of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was accepted. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Whenever any extremely important matter confronted me, I would choose that same time to supplicate. Thus, whenever I supplicated to Allah Almighty on Wednesday, between the two prayers, I certainly saw signs of acceptance.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I was with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a man made supplication and said: "O Creator of the heavens without any previous example! O Ever-Living, Sustainer! I ask You." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you know with what he supplicated? By the One in Whose hand is my soul, he has supplicated to Allah with His Name that when supplication is made with it, He surely accepts it."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr, may Allah be pleased with him, that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, said to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, "Teach me a supplication that I may recite in my prayer." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Say: O Allah! Indeed, I have wronged myself greatly, and none forgives sins except You. So forgive me with forgiveness from Yourself, and have mercy on me. Surely, You are the Most Forgiving, Most Merciful."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: When any of you is subjected to someone whose oppression and arrogance he fears, he should recite this supplication:“O Allah! Lord of the seven heavens and Lord of the Mighty Throne! Protect me from so-and-so son of so-and-so and his group, who are among Your creation, lest any of them should wrong me or act arrogantly towards me. The one who seeks Your protection is honored, Your praise is very exalted, and there is no deity except You.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that he said: When you go to a king whom people fear, and you are afraid that he may oppress you, then recite this supplication: "Allah is the Greatest. Allah is mightier than all creation. Allah is even mightier and more powerful than the one whom I fear and dread. I seek refuge with the One besides whom there is no deity, Who holds back the seven heavens from falling upon the earth except by His permission (and if He wills, they will fall), from the evil of Your such-and-such servant, his group, his companions, and his parties, whether they are from among the jinn or mankind. O Allah! Make me a means of protection against their evil. Great is Your praise, and whoever seeks refuge with You is honored, and Your blessed Name is very blessed, and there is no deity except You." Recite this supplication three times.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that he said: Whoever is afflicted with any distress, grief, or anxiety, or fears the oppression of a king, should supplicate with these words, and the supplication will surely be accepted: "I ask You by the means of «لا إله إلا أنت» , who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the Mighty Throne. And I ask You by the means of «لا إله إلا أنت» , who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the Noble Throne. And I ask You by the means of «لا إله إلا أنت» , who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the seven earths and whatever is in them. Indeed, You have power over all things." Then he should ask Allah Almighty for his need.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), who reports from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "Whenever a Muslim supplicates, provided it is not for a sin or for severing ties of kinship, Allah grants him one of three things: either his supplication is answered immediately as he asked, or it is stored for him in the Hereafter, or a calamity of similar measure that was to befall him is averted from him." The narrator said: "Then we will supplicate a lot." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Allah is even more generous."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whenever a believer turns to Allah and asks for something, Allah grants it to him. Either He gives it to him in this world according to his request, or He stores it for him in the Hereafter, as long as the servant does not become hasty." The Companions asked: O Messenger of Allah! What is haste? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He says: I made supplication, then I made supplication, but I do not see my supplication being accepted."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "There is nothing more valuable in the sight of Allah than supplication (du'a)."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "The most excellent and superior act of worship is supplication (du'a)."
