Question:
He asks: Is it permissible for a person to say, "Go, for the prince so-and-so is with you," or to say, "Go, for Allah is with you, and then the prince so-and-so"? He asks: Which is better?
Answer:
If the prince is walking with him, then he is with him. If the prince is not with him, then he is not with him. Rather, it is Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) who is with him. The companionship of the prince is not general, but the companionship of Allah is general, and He is with you wherever you are.
