The question

Is it permissible for a girl to supplicate, saying: "O Allah, perfect in my face and my form what can be perfected," when a suitor proposes to her, knowing that Allah is capable of all things, and what is the correct wording for the supplication if there is a mistake in her supplication?

The answer

Supplicating for a change in creation is impermissible and constitutes a form of transgression. The girl can perform concerning her marriage. Beauty is relative, and a man may desire a woman for other qualities such as her religiosity, character, and lineage.
