The Shaykh : Yes, but it is not appropriate.

The questioner : ... not appropriate ...

The Shaykh : No, we say it is not permissible, because this is bad etiquette with Allah. How can you ask Him by what necessitates punishment, seeking forgiveness and repentance? What is appropriate for this? Yes.
