Is it permissible to supplicate for girls while prostrating in prayer?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no harm in a worshiper supplicating in prostration with whatever they wish, though it is preferable to supplicate for matters of the afterlife, due to the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "As for prostration, strive in supplication therein, for it is most likely that your supplication will be answered." The Hanafis and Hanbalis hold the view that it is impermissible to supplicate for worldly pleasures during prayer, unlike the majority of scholars.
