بَابُ النَّهْي عَنْ قَوْلِ الدَّاعِيِّ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي إِنْ شِئْتَ وَعَنْ اسْتِبْطَاءِ الإِجَابَةِ وَكَرَاهَة السَّجَع فِی الدُّعَاءِChapter on the Prohibition of Saying "O Allah, Forgive Me If You Will," Delaying the Response, and the Dislike of Rhymed Supplication
Hadith 5611

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي إِنْ شِئْتَ اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْنِي إِنْ شِئْتَ وَلَكِنْ لِيَعْزِمِ الْمَسْأَلَةَ فَإِنَّهُ لَا مُكْرِهَ لَهُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: No one should ever supplicate in this manner: "O Allah! If You will, forgive me. O Allah! If You will, have mercy on me." Rather, he should present his request with insistence, for there is no one who can compel Allah Almighty.
