Is it permissible to supplicate with, "O Allah, open for me a provision in which no one has any favor over me, nor for You any accountability over me in the Hereafter, by Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful"?
Asking Allah for provision that entails no obligation to a created being and no accountability on the Day of Judgment is permissible. Among the reported supplications are: "O Allah, forgive me, have mercy on me, grant me well-being, provide for me, guide me, and grant me well-being," and "Let each of you ask his Lord for all his needs, even asking Him for the shoelace of his sandal if it breaks." Among the supplications of the Salaf is: "O Allah, do not let anyone have a favor over me besides You." Ibrahim ibn Adham said: "Do not let anyone between you and Allah be a benefactor to you; rather, consider any favor bestowed upon you by other than Allah as a burden."
