The answer

One must repent of this dangerous word and refrain from returning to it, safeguarding the tongue to avoid perils. Saying "Ya Allah" (O Allah) or "Ya Rabb" (O Lord) is a praiseworthy remembrance and religiously desirable, even if there is no immediate need, based on the : "Whoever desires that Allah respond to him during hardship and distress, let him increase his supplications during times of ease."
