It is narrated that Makhool narrated that some of the Companions [May Allaah be Pleased with him] narrated that the Messenger of Allaah [Peace and Blessings of Allaah be upon him] said, “Seek an answer to your supplications when you meet the enemy, when the Salaat is being established (i.e. between the Athaan and the Iqaamah) and when it is raining.”
[al-Bayhaqee in al-Ma’rifah (3/105), ash-Shaafi’ee in al-Umm (1/253) and al-Albaanee in Silsilah as-Saheehah (1469) classed it as Hasan]
Shaykh al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah [May Allaah have Mercy on him] discussed the issue of times and places when supplication is accepted. He said:
Are there specific times and places, such as the grave of a prophet, when supplication is accepted? There is no doubt that the Dua’a in certain times are accepted as opposed to other times…
So it is recommended to supplicate whilst it rains, the point in which two armies meet, the time between the Athaan and the Iqaamah, at the end of the Salaat, whilst in Sujood, whilst fasting, whilst travelling, whilst being oppressed and the likes. All of these are examples where the Ahaadeeth have established times in which the supplication is accepted in the books of Saheehs and Sunnan (i.e. collections of Ahaadeeth)…
