🔰 The Impermissibility of Asking for the Punishment to Be Hastened in This Life
When the Messenger of Allāh saw a Muslim man who was sick and had grown feeble like a chicken, the Messenger of Allāh said to him, "Did you pray for anything or ask for it?"
He said, "Yes, I used to say, 'O Allāh, whatever punishment You would give me in the Hereafter, bring it forward in this world.'"
The Messenger of Allāh said, "Subhānallāh! You cannot bear it. Why didn't you say:
اللٌَهُمَّ آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً، وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً، وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ.
Allāhumma ātinā fid-dunyā hasanah, wa fil-ākhirati hasanah, wa qinā 'adhāban-Nār.
"O Allah, give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and save us from the torment of the Fire."
Then he prayed to Allāh for him, and He healed him.
[Mukhtasar Muslim 1883]
