Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner is asking about this phrase and its repetition. He says, “May Allah reward you and us for the conclusion. Is it permissible for a person to say, ‘O Allah, bring to completion for this Ummah a matter of sound judgment, in which You honor those who obey You and guide those who disobey You’?”

Answer:
This is the supplication that is circulated, “in which You honor those who obey You and humble those who disobey You.” However, in the recent era, they changed it to “guide.” As for making this supplication, it is permissible because it does not specify any particular person; rather, it is a supplication for the general public, or for the general body of those who commit sins. Yes.
