Muwatta Malik #517
The Qur'an
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّمَا أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ {وَلاَ تَجْهَرْ بِصَلاَتِكَ وَلاَ تُخَافِتْ بِهَا وَابْتَغِ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ سَبِيلاً} فِي الدُّعَاءِ . قَالَ يَحْيَى وَسُئِلَ مَالِكٌ عَنِ الدُّعَاءِ فِي الصَّلاَةِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ فَقَالَ لاَ بَأْسَ بِالدُّعَاءِ فِيهَا .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his
father said, "The following ayat was sent down about dua - 'And do not
be loud in your prayer and do not be silent in it, but seek a way
between these.' " (Sura 17 ayat 110)
Yahya said that Malik
was asked about making dua in obligatory prayers and he said, "There
is no harm in making dua in them."
