Petitioning Allâh by His Beautiful Names
Question :
Is this form of supplication correct: "O Allah, I ask you by your Beautiful Names and Attributes, to...."
Answer:
It is from the Sunnah to petition Allâh by His Beautiful Names and His Exalted Attributes, by one's good deeds, or by one's love for the righteous. This is a means of having one's prayers answered, regardless whether one does this before or after his supplication. But it is not permitted to petition Allâh Almighty by mentioning people, like saying, "I ask you by so and so," because this leads to associating partners with Allah Almighty.
