Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If I want to ask Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) for something from the matters of this world, I am shy to ask Him for a trifle of this world, so I leave it.
Answer:
No, that is from Shaytan. The hadith says: "Ask Allah even for the strap of your sandal." Ask Allah for all your needs, whether large or small. Yes, even to fix the strap of your sandal if it breaks. Yes.
