Question:
The questioner, Abu Fadl, asks: Is it permissible for a person to ask Allah for patience regarding His decree concerning his sins?
Answer:
Without a doubt, the Muslim asks Allah for patience, asking Him to grant him patience and the reward for enduring what he encounters and what befalls him. For if Allah does not guide him and grant him success, he will not be patient. If Allah does not make him patient and help him, he will not be patient in the face of trial. Yes.
