It is not permissible to supplicate for one's own death

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you good. One of the listening sisters sent a message saying: The questioner, Umm Yasin, asks and says: Is it permissible for a Muslim to supplicate to Allah not to prolong our life in this world with its trials and calamities, and to hasten for us, and to hasten for us the abiding home? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
It is not permissible for a person to supplicate for the end of his life and death for himself. Rather, the Muslim should supplicate to Allah for a good ending, and for Allah to choose for him what is best and most righteous. He should say: “O Allah, keep me alive if life is better for me, and keep me alive as long as it is, and cause me to die if death is better for me.” Thus, he entrusts the matter to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). The life of a Muslim is better for him; he marries, [and engages] in righteous deeds. If something that bothers him befalls him, he is patient and seeks reward, because this calamity is either an expiation for his sins or a raising of his ranks. So he is content and submits to the divine decree and destiny of Allah. And if he is able to take the means that remove the disliked things from him, such as illness, poverty, and need, by working the causes, he should seek treatment for the illness and seek provision so that Allah may enrich him from poverty. So acting upon the beneficial causes is also commanded.
