EXALT ALLAH, THEN SUPPLICATE FOR THE PROPHET, praise and peace be upon him, AFTER PRAYER

1433

“When the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, heard someone supplicate in his prayer without exalting Allah and without supplicating for blessings upon him, he commented, ‘That one was in a hurry.’ Then he called him and said to him, or to someone beside him, ‘When one of you is supplicating he should begin by praising and exalting his Lord, then you should supplicate for blessings upon the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, and then supplicate as he wishes.’"

Abu Daud and Tirmidhi with a chain up to Fuzala, the son of Ubaid who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
