Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the ruling on this phrase, "Oh, the irony of fate"?
Answer:
This is not permissible. This is a condemnation of the divine decree and a blaming of the divine decree. This is not permissible. And for the divine decree to be ironic, the divine decree is nothing but the decree of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. So if one mocks the divine decree, he has mocked Allah, Mighty and Majestic. Yes.
