About prayer duas
These supplications are connected to the ritual prayer (salah) and its surrounding moments, such as the opening of prayer, positions within it, and the time after the final salam.
Each has its own place. Some are said inside the prayer, others after it. Your local scholar or a prayer guide can confirm where a specific one belongs, because the schools of thought differ on a few details.
