Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned that "hearing" can mean "responding." Is there any objection to some people saying, "May Allah hear you"?
Answer:
Yes, it means He responds to you. In other words, it means one is calling upon Allah to hear, that Allah hears (Exalted and Majestic is He), but the intent is that He hears from you, meaning He answers your supplication. Yes.
