Saying InshaAllah (if Allâh wills) after Supplicating

Question :

What about a person saying "InshaAllah" in his supplication?

Answer:

When one supplicates, he should not say "InshaAllah": A rather, he should be adamant and resolute when asking with high expectations. Allâh Almighty says:
"Invoke Me, I will respond to your (invocation)"

Since He promised to answer the invocation, there remains no need to say "InshaAllah". And if Allah guides one of His creatures to supplicate Him, He Almighty will respond to it, either with what he is asking for, or removing a harm from him, or deferring his reward for him until the Day of Judgement.

It has been confirmed that the Prophet ﷺ said:
"Let none of you say, "O Allah! Forgive me if You will; O Allah! Have mercy on me if You will. But be resolute in your invocation and be strong in your hopes, for none can compel Allâh."

Someone could say, "Did not the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say to the sick,"There is no harm. (It is only) a purification, if Allah wills."

We would answer that yes, he used to say this, but it is evident that he did not say so in the sense of supplicating, but rather as a means of giving news or hope to the sick. Being resolute, then, is from the manners of supplicating.
