so are you saying zikar is allowed? some people these days are saying “don’t gather and do zikar” zikar is remembrance of Allah, which I have never thought was wrong and about which are hadeeth and hadeeth qudsi, any chance of a reply to my email address?

jazakallah

In reply to raheem.

Yes brother many of our scholars have said that one who doesn’t know Arabic may pray in their own language just like an Arab may make up their own supplications in Arabic which is just them pouring their heart out to God. Arabic is only a holy sacred language when it is Qur’an and Sunnah. Other than that it is a language like any other with pros and cons.

Wonderful article Imam Webb. If I may ask: can we supplicate IN ENGLISH while in sujood? I have read that we cannot, only Arabic is to be said. The reason I am bringing this up is because since the article is talking about remembrance. Lol, thank you Imam, have a bless day, lol. Salaams to the ummah.
