Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes. Yes.

The questioner : We have heard some of the imams supplicating to you in Ramadan that O Allah, do not plot against us and do not let them plot against us.

The Shaykh : Yes. And what do you want in it? It is better to say, “O Allah, do not plot against us, and do not plot against us.” It is permissible to say, “O Allah, do not scheme against us, and do not scheme against us,” because Allah said, “Thus We plotted for Yusuf; We plotted for him,” and He said regarding the disbelievers,
(15) Indeed, they are planning a plan, (16) But I am planning a plan.إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا
[At-Tariq 86:15-16]
which means it is certain for them, it is certain for her. Yes, there is nothing wrong with it, but if this is mentioned in the hadith,
there is no harm in it; otherwiseفلا بأس، وإن كان
Sahih al-Bukhari 2060, 2061
it was not mentioned, then it means certain: “Do not plot against us, and do not plot against us,” yes.
