Is the supplication: "O Allah, do not let me die except that You are pleased with me" considered an transgression in prayer?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The death of a Muslim with Allah being pleased with them is the ultimate goal of every Muslim, and it is true happiness. The righteous predecessors used to frequently supplicate for attaining this high status. An example of this is the supplication of Muslim ibn Yasar in his prostration: "When shall I meet You, while You are pleased with me?" This supplication is not considered an transgression in prayer.
