Calling upon the Lord with “Ya Allah” (O Allah) or “Ya Mu’in” (O Helper) without asking for anything: Is there any religious prohibition in this?

Question:
The last question, may Allah preserve you, O Shaykh. If one calls upon Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) and supplicates to Him without making a request, like when I am lying in bed with the stairs and I say, “Ya Mu’in, Ya Allah, Ya Mu’in,” without asking for anything, O Shaykh, is there anything wrong with this? I am going to do it. Because the book says it is not permissible, O Shaykh. I am not going to do it. May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Allah means, yes, that is the meaning. The context indicates the intended meaning. Yes, without asking for anything.

The presenter:
May Allah preserve you and reward you with good, O Shaykh. Peace be upon you. Friday evening, the twenty-seventh of Dhul-Hijjah, at nine-thirty.
