“O Allah forgive me if You wish, “O Allah have mercy on me if You wish,
Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah said:
“None of you should say: ‘O Allah forgive me if You wish. O Allah have mercy on me if You wish.’ Let him be firm in asking, for there is none that can compel Him to do things.”
حَدَّثَنَا الأَنْصَارِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ يَقُولُ أَحَدُكُمُ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي إِنْ شِئْتَ اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْنِي إِنْ شِئْتَ لِيَعْزِمِ الْمَسْأَلَةَ فَإِنَّهُ لاَ مُكْرِهَ لَهُ " . قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
Grade: Sahih (Darussalam)
Reference : Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3497
In-book reference : Book 48, Hadith 128
O Allah give me sustenance if You wish!!
This hadith reveals that if a believer asks for anything to Allah, then he should not hesitate and should be confuse, but he should ask by open heart what is permissible in the shariah and he should not be doubtful about it.
Because Allah can do everything whatever He wants as the holy Quran reveals,
“verily, God has the power to do anything.” (Al-Baqara (The Cow) 2:20)
And…” God always prevails in whatever be His purpose: but most people know it not.”
Yusuf (Joseph) 12:21
May Allah give us power to do so, Amin.
