The ruling on saying "Ukkashah got there before you"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Many people use the phrase "Ukkashah got there before you" as a proverb when they are asked to do something by two or more people. What is the ruling on this?

Answer:
Yes, it has become common among people as a proverb. There is no harm in that, except if the matter for which one says "so-and-so got there before you" is forbidden or disliked. The words of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) are to be protected from being used in a trivial manner. However, if it is among matters that do not involve prohibition, there is no harm in it. Yes.
