must i use arabic invocation or any language to make the du'a

Jazakumllahi Khairan!
Please let's stop giving the Non-Muslims that come to derail our threads the attention that they seek. Let's leave them and pray that Allah guide them to straight path. No need to be engaging in online tongue lashing with people.
And like Mufti Menk would say: " Every Non-Muslim is a potential Muslim".

If you don't know the Arabic, you can use any language.
Allahu Allam!

from 3 am to like 4.. I stand to be corrected

Jazakallah khairan. Nice post

[b]from 3 am to like 4.. I stand to be corrected.

The third hour of the night can be easily calculated by taking the count of hour between magrib and fajr period of the next day.
For instance,the present has magrib to be around 7pm and fajr around 5;33am which is like 10hrs 30mins. dividing this hour by 3 will make the third part of the night to fall between 230am and 525am to be on the safe side. if one can wake between this hour and observe his/her tahajud, Allah(swt)is waiting to accept our dua.

You can't use any language during Sujood because you are still on salat and you making your dua in your language means you are thinking on salat which suppose not to BE.
You can only use your language after Salam.
ALLAHU ALAM.

JazakaLahu khair nice topic it is brief and understanding.
