Making dua in sajdah in Salaah

Q: I was told that one is allowed to recite any dua in Arabic in the sajda of one's salaah. I understand this does not refer to fard salaah. Is this allowed in the sunnah salaah, e.g. 4 rakaats before zuhr and the salaah after the fard salaah. Please assist.

A: Yes. However the dua should conform to the duas that have been reported in the Hadith.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
