It is generally permissible in Islam to pray for a baby boy, as long as it is done with a sincere heart and without neglecting the importance of accepting whatever Allah (SWT) wills.
Islam emphasizes acceptance of Allah's will and refraining from placing conditions on His blessings. While praying for a son is allowed, it is crucial to remember that Allah (SWT) knows what is best for us.
Some scholars argue that praying for a specific gender is permissible, while others believe that it is better to pray for a healthy and righteous child, regardless of gender.
It is important to avoid associating any specific gender with superiority or associating it with negative connotations.
Ultimately, the decision to pray for a baby boy or not is a personal one. However, it is essential to approach this with a focus on gratitude and acceptance of Allah's (SWT) will.
