Question:
Please, my brother Ahmad, come on the line from Riyadh. Please, Ahmad. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. Our Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, I have a question about a supplication, and I want to verify it. They said it was attributed to the Shaykh, the Honorable Shaykh Ibn Baz, may Allah forgive him and have mercy on him:
Sufficient for us is Allah; Allah will give us of His bounty, and [so will] His Messenger; indeed, we are desirous toward Allah,حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ سَيُؤْتِينَا اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ وَرَسُولُهُ إِنَّا إِلَى اللَّهِ رَاغِبُونَ
[At-Tawbah 9:59]
. And some people denied this supplication. They said that Shaykh Abdul Aziz ibn Baz, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "I never supplicated after the tashahhud for anything but it was granted to me." So I do not know if it is true. Is it permissible or not permissible? Our Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. Thank you.

Answer:
My brother,
Sufficient for us is Allah; Allah will give us of His bounty, and [so will] His Messenger; indeed, we are desirous toward Allah,حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ سَيُؤْتِينَا اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ وَرَسُولُهُ إِنَّا إِلَى اللَّهِ رَاغِبُونَ
[At-Tawbah 9:59]
this is in the Qur'an. How can they deny it? It is in the Qur'an? A Muslim says "Allah is sufficient for us" or "Allah is sufficient for me" and asks Allah to give him from His bounty. There is nothing wrong with that. As for the Shaykh saying something or doing something, I do not know. I do not know this. Yes.
