The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Some preachers and imams make this supplication: “O Allah, forgive this Ummah a matter of guidance in which You honor the people of Your obedience and humiliate the people of Your disobedience.” He asks: Is this supplication prescribed? And is it permissible to supplicate for the humiliation of the people of Allah’s disobedience?
The Shaykh:
Yes, this has been practiced in this land for many years, and there are scholars among them, and they did not disapprove of this matter. It is only now that some of them have disapproved of it.
The questioner:
Or he sells.
The Shaykh:
Do the sins make them honored? This is not permissible. Will Allah not humiliate them? Yes.
