Ruling on the supplication: O Allah, gather me with the one who dug the tunnel

Question:
What is the ruling on one who says: O Allah, gather me with the one who dug the tunnel?
Answer:
I am not aware of any basis for this supplication in the Shari'ah. It is mentioned that it was the saying of one of the commanders when he saw some soldiers dig a tunnel in one of the enemy's walls, which became the cause of the Muslims' victory. Such a saying is not a Shari'ah text for the people. Rather, what is prescribed is to say: O Allah, gather me in the company of Your Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), or in the company of Your righteous servants, or the like of that. I ask Allah to grant us and you success in His religion and steadfastness upon it, for He is the best of those asked.
