Question:
What is the ruling on asking others to make du'a' (supplication) for you?
Answer:
If you have someone present who is among the righteous, ask him to make du'a' (supplication) for you. No, but your calling upon Allah is better than your asking people to do so; your calling upon Allah is better than asking people to make du'a' for you, or making du'a' through a permissible means, but leaving it is better, and it is better for a person to make du'a' for himself. Yes.
