May I make Du'a using my own words and in the English language?
Question
Or should I use Du'aas found in Qur'an and Sunnah?
Answer
You are permitted to make Du'aa in your own words in English. But the preferable is to make the Masnoon Du'aas, then follow it up with the Du'aa in English.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
