The questioner : I say that many people, may Allah reward you, ask by the Face of Allah for a specific need to be fulfilled for them?
The Shaykh : Like what?
The questioner : He says, “Give me such-and-such; I ask you by the Face of Allah to give me this pen?”
The Shaykh : There is nothing wrong with this; “I ask you by the Face of Allah” is like “I ask you by Allah.” However, the scholars said that one should not ask by the Face of Allah except for something serious, such as Paradise or salvation from the Fire, or something similar. Yes.
