Saying: Do not forget us in your supplication

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: Some people frequently say, "Do not forget us, my brother," in their supplications, to the point that I said to one of them, "What is the reality of this?" He replied to me, "I am in need of your supplication." What is the ruling on this? And what is your guidance?

Answer:
This is what the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said to 'Umar when 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) intended to travel for 'Umrah. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: a good supplication. 'Umar said, "I would not prefer to have the world and all that is in it for this word." This is permissible; there is no harm in asking a companion to make supplication for him, especially if he is traveling for 'Umrah or Hajj. He says to him, "Make supplication for my family in your Hajj and your 'Umrah." There is no harm in that, yes.
