Ruling on making du’aa’ in English
Can I recite duaa's in English?.

Praise be to Allaah.

Making du’aa’ in English or in any other language is permissible outside of salaah (prayer). But it is not permissible to say any part of the salaah in any language other than Arabic, according to the majority of scholars.

But if the Muslim can stick to Arabic in all cases, especially in acts of worship – and du’aa’ is an act of worship – that is preferable and is better.

I'd appreciate if someone answers the questions above. I also have more:
Do the sunnets for fajer have to be made up?

If one performed the Fajr Salaat and omitted the performance of the 2 Rakaat Sunnah before it, then Qadhaa of this 2 Rakaats Sunnah will not be performed before sunrise nor after sunrise.
I know what I'll ask now is a lot. So, may Allah,subhana wa ta'ala, reward you.
Could someone give me these recitations in Arabis with english letters?
I think that way it will be more valid. http://www.al-inaam.com/library/lmuslimwom.htm
Upon awakening in the morning: say this duaa, "Al-Hamdulillah, praise be to Allah who brought me to life after giving me death, and to Him is the resurrection." (Bukhari).
Arabic transliteration: AlHamdulillaahillazi aHyaana ba'dama amaatana wa ilaihin-nushoor.

When getting dressed, say this duaa, "Al-Hamdulillah, praise be to Allah, who clothed me with this, and who provided me with it, without any power or might of mine." (Abu Dawud).
Transliteration: AlHamdulillaahillazi kasaani haaza waRazaqaneehi min-ghairi Hawlim-minni wala Quwwah.

Duaa when entering the bathroom, "In the name of Allah. O Allah, I seek refuge in you from the evil and evil things." (Abu Dawud).
Transliteration: Allahumma inni a'oozu bika minal khubuthi wal khaba-ith.

Duaa after finishing wudou
"I testify that there is no god but Allah, alone, having no partner; and I testify that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger. O Allah, make me of those who continually repent and purify themselves." (Tirmithi)
Transliteration: Ash-hadu allaa-ilaaha illallaahu waHdahu la shareeka lahu wa ash-hadu anna MuHammadan 'Abduhu wa Rasooluh, Allahummaj-'alni minat-tawwaabeena waj-'alni minal mutaTahhireen.

Duaa when leaving the bathroom, : "(I ask for) Your forgiveness." (Abu Dawud).
Transliteration: Ghufraanak.

Duaa when beginning the meal: "O Allah! Bless whatever You provided for us and save us from the punishment of the hellfire. Bismillah."
Transliteration: Allahumma baarik lana feema razaqtana waqina 'azaban-Nar, Bismillah.

Duaa after finishing the meal: "Praise be to Allah, who gave us to eat and to drink and made us Muslims." (Abu Dawud, Tirmithi).
Transliteration: AlHamdulillaahillazi aT'amana wa saqaana wa ja'alana minal Muslimeen.
"Perform salat ad-Dhuha: Abu Hurairah said, "My friend (the Prophet) advised me to observe three things, not to abandon them till I die; to fast three days a month, to perform two rak'at of Duha (forenoon) salah, and to make witr before sleeping." (Bukhari and Muslim). This is one of the forgotten sunnah of the Prophet, sallallahu alayhe wasallam, that needs to be revived. Two or more rak'a should be prayed some time after the sun rises until a few moments before noon. The preferred time is when the sun is extremely hot, which usually occurs around the hour before noon. A mother has a wonderful opportunity to renew this Sunnah by teaching her children from a very young age. Have a peaceful and blessed morning!"

Which are the two rakats of duha?
Is duha, duhur?
I know that there are 4 rakats of sunnets for duhur.
4 rakats of fards.
And 2 rakats of sunnets. Are these the two rakats this hadeeth is speaking about?
Dhuha/Ishraq/Chasht is a nafil prayer. It's timing is mentioned in your quote. 4 Rakat of Sunnat before Dhuhar is different.
