• It is recited in every prayer (Salah) during the last sitting (Qa’dah) after completing the prostrations (Sujood).
• In a two-rak‘ah prayer, it is read once before Salam.
• In three or four-rak‘ah prayers, it is read in both the middle and last sittings.

Importance

Attahiyat Dua is one of the most important parts of Salah, as it signifies direct communication with Allah. It not only completes the prayer but also contains deep meanings of faith, respect, and submission. Without it, Salah is incomplete, and its recitation keeps a Muslim spiritually connected and mindful of the presence of Allah.
