Do not ask that he be preserved, ask instead that his faith be preserved
A man once said to one of the Salaf, "May Allah preserve you," to which he replied, ❛My brother, do not ask that he be preserved, ask instead that his faith be preserved!❜
What he meant was to stress the importance of supplicating for the preservation of ones religion; this is because ❛worldly preservation could be conferred on both the righteous and the sinner, but Allah only safeguards the religion of the believer & comes between it and anything that would pollute it via numerous means, some of which the servant is unaware of and yet others he may dislike.❜
