The answer

Scholars have not specified the exact duration of the time for the acceptance of supplication after the Athan if there is no , but this entire period is a likely time for supplication to be answered. Therefore, a Muslim should seize this opportunity by making supplications, due to the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Supplication between the Athan and the Iqamah is not rejected." This applies to all prayers and there is no distinction between men and women, or between someone awaiting prayer and others, or between someone who has ablution and someone who does not. This period encompasses the entire duration between the Athan and the Iqamah, even if it is long. The essence of the is achieved by merely supplicating, and it is preferable to occupy the entire time with supplication, except for the time of performing the regular voluntary prayer (ratibah), and supplication during the prostration of the ratibah is considered a supplication between the Athan and the Iqamah.
