Is it permissible to supplicate for a long life?

The Shaykh : And I say on an occasion like this that I live by your supplications. I live by your supplications. It is through your weak ones, their supplication, and their sincerity that you are supported and provided for. So I live by this. Please, go ahead.

The questioner : Is this supplication, "May Allah lengthen your life," valid with this wording?

The Shaykh : What is it?

The questioner : The supplication, "May Allah lengthen your life."

The Shaykh : I mean, is it permissible to supplicate for a long life?

The questioner : Does one say, "May Allah bless you"?

The Shaykh : Both expressions are permissible.
