Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Is it ok to ask Christian people to pray for health?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Allah says in Quran:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Those who disbelieved, and prevented (others) from Allah\u2019s way, He (Allah) has rendered their deeds vain. i<\/sup><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, keeping in view the above verse, if you ask non-Muslims to do dua for you it will be in vain as their deeds are in vain.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The much better approach will be that we should make dua for them and pray that Allah forgives them and guides them to the truth.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is narrated from \u2018Abdullah:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cIt is as if I can see the Messenger of Allah telling us the story of one of the Prophets: \u2018His people beat him, and he was wiping the blood from his face and saying: \u201cO Lord forgive my people, for they do not know.\u2019 ii<\/sup><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In short, we should not ask non-Muslims to pray for us rather we should pray for their guidance.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Only Allah knows best.<\/span><\/p>\n
