3. It is permissible to recite any Arabic dua between the two prostrations of salat, but preferable that one recites a dua from the Qur’an or hadith. The following are a few duas narrated from the Prophet (Sallalahu ‘Alayhi Wasallam) to be recited between the two sajdahs.
اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِى وَارْحَمْنِى وَاجْبُرْنِى وَاهْدِنِى وَارْزُقْنِى – رواه الترمذى
رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِى وَارْحَمْنِى وَاجْبُرْنِى وَارْزُقْنِى وَارْفَعْنِى – رواه ابن ماجه
اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِى وَارْحَمْنِى وَعَافِنِى وَاهْدِنِى وَارْزُقْنِى – رواه أبو داود
اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِى وَارْحَمْنِى وَاجْبُرْنِى وَاهْدِنِى وَارْزُقْنِى – رواه الترمذى
رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِى رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِى – رواه أبو داود، النسائ, ابن ماجه
If one is leading the prayers, then he should refrain from reciting any dua. Rasulullah (Sallalahu ‘Alayhi Wasallam) has said:
إذا صلى أحدكم للناس فليخفف ، فإن منهم الضعيف والسقيم والكبير ، وإذا صلى أحدكم لنفسه فليطول ما شاء – رواه البخارى
If one of you leads the prayers, then let him shorten the salat. For verily [from amongst congregation] are the weak, sick, and the old. If you pray alone, then he may prolong as much as he desires.

Rad al-Muhtar ()
( قوله وليس بينهما ذكر مسنون ) قال أبو يوسف : سألت الإمام أيقول الرجل إذا رفع رأسه من الركوع والسجود اللهم اغفر لي ؟ قال : يقول ربنا لك الحمد وسكت ، ولقد أحسن في الجواب إذ لم ينه عن الاستغفار نهر وغيره . أقول : بل فيه إشارة إلى أنه غير مكروه إذ لو كان مكروها لنهى عنه كما ينهى عن القراءة في الركوع والسجود وعدم كونه مسنونا لا ينافي الجواز كالتسمية بين الفاتحة والسورة ، بل ينبغي أن يندب الدعاء بالمغفرة بين السجدتين خروجا من خلاف الإمام أحمد لإبطاله الصلاة بتركه عامدا ولم أر من صرح بذلك عندنا ، لكن صرحوا باستحباب مراعاه الخلاف ، والله أعلم
