Question Summary:
Is it permissible to ask a Kafir to pray for you?

Question Detail:

Is it permissible to ask a non believer to pay for you as a Muslim, also what do you do if a non believer asks you to pray for them, do we?

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.


A non-believer does not believe in Allah and if he does, his beliefs are incorrect. Allah Ta’āla says:
وما دعاء الكافرين إلا في ضلال
“But the prayer of those without Faith is nothing but (futile wandering) in (mazes of) error!” [Surah Ghafir, verse 50]
It is not permissible to ask a non-believer to pray for you.
It is permissible to make dua of Hidayah and well-being for non-Muslims [1].
 
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best

الأذكار للنووي ت مستو (ص: 496)[1]
293 ـ بابُ ما يقولُه المسلمُ للذميّ إذا فعلَ به مَعْرُوفً
اعلم أنه لا يجوز أن يُدعى له بالمغفرة وما أشبهها مما لا يُقال للكفار، لكن يجوزُ أن يُدعى بالهداية وصحةِ البدن والعافية وشبهِ ذلك
[1/ 827] روينا في كتاب ابن السني، عن أنس رضي الله عنه قال
استسقى النبيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فسقاه يهوديٌّ، فقال له النبيّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: "جَمَّلَكَ اللَّهُ" فما رأى الشيب حتى ماتَ
