Making du’aa’ in prayer in a language other than Arabic
Question: 4337
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
Yes, it is permissible to make du’aa’ in a language other than Arabic, if one does not speak it. But the Muslim has to learn enough Arabic to do the acts of worship properly. And Allaah knows best.
