What is the ruling on a person saying to an official, “I ask Allah, then I ask you”?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: It has become customary when submitting a letter to an official for the person submitting it to say, “I ask Allah, then I ask you.” Is there anything wrong with this?

Answer:
No, there is nothing wrong with it. You ask Allah, then you ask the employee or the official to resolve your problem, as he is capable of doing so. He is capable of resolving your problem and completing your transaction. He is capable of doing whatever you ask of him that falls within his jurisdiction and his work. Yes.
