Is it correct to say "if Allah wills" in supplication?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is the phrase "if Allah wills" sometimes said with supplication, as if one were to say:

Answer:
No, in supplication you resolve the matter and do not bring in the condition of will. You do not say, "O Allah, forgive me if You will." The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade that. Rather, you state the matter definitively without exception, because nothing is too great for Allah to grant. You might say to a son of Adam, "Give me a person," and he might say, "It is easy for me," or "I want to," or "I will," because perhaps he does not want to, and you cannot compel him; you might dislike it. But Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has no measure, and nothing is too great for Him to give. So state the matter definitively. Say, "My Lord, forgive me, turn me in repentance, guide me, and provide for me." Call upon Allah definitively, and do not make an exception or a condition of will in it. This is in supplication. As for an oath, yes, you say "if Allah wills." Yes.
