?Why Allah’s prophet Jacob said I will ask forgiveness and did not supplicate then immediately
..In the name of Allah the All Merciful, the Most Merciful, and peace be upon the sent ones, and praise be to Allah Lord of the worlds
My honorable brother, they only mean that they wronged their father and their brother so they requested remission from him and to forgive them so he promised them, but he wanted to rest his heart at ease for the safety of his two sons Yusuf and his brother, so he would be sure as well from their repent because the persistent on his sin there is no use for asking forgiveness for him. Confirming with the word of Allah the Most High: {Ask forgiveness for them or ask not forgiveness for them. Even if you ask forgiveness for them seventy times, Allah will not forgive them. This is because they disbelieve in Allah and His messenger. And Allah guides not the transgressing people.}Truthful Allah the Great [Al-Tawba] 9:80
{اسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ أَوْ لاَ تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ إِن تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً فَلَن يَغْفِرَ اللّهُ لَهُمْ ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَفَرُواْ بِاللّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَاللّهُ لاَ يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْفَاسِقِينَ (80 )} صدق الله العظيم [التوبة:80].
And you should know that this verse about the hypocrites, and we deduce from it the number of forgiveness for the ones at fault and the dead ones of the Muslims, yet only Allah did not accept the forgiveness of His messenger for the hypocrites because He knows — glory be to Him — their lack of repentance and their lack of regret on what they forged (lies), so how would Allah forgive them? As in regards to the children of Jacob they only requested forgiveness from him because they wronged their father and wronged their brother surely they did hurt their father a big hurt and for that they requested from him forgiveness for them and the remission for them in order for Allah to forgive their sin in the right of their father and their two brothers Yusuf and his brother, and he wants to reunite with his sons so he would request from them to forgive their brothers so Allah would forgive them and He is the best of the forgivers, yet he did not meet with Yusuf and his brother, and for that he promised them by asking forgiveness.
And as in regards to the supplication-prayer, surely it is in any time that you call your Lord indeed He is Ever-living, the Self-subsisting by Whom all subsist. Slumber overtakes Him not, nor sleep, forgives to the sinner day and night when repenting and turning close (to Him) and he does not delay it till a specific time, glory be to Allah! Confirming with the word of Allah the Most High: {And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a Garden, as wide as the heavens and the earth; it is prepared for those who keep their duty.}Truthful Allah the Great [Ãli-´Imrãn] 3:133
{وَسَارِعُواْ إِلَى مَغْفِرَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرْضُ أُعِدَّتْ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ ﴿133)} صدق الله العظيم [آل عمران].
And He answers the prayer-call of the devoted-sincere caller when he calls Him in any time. Confirming with the word of Allah the Most High: {And when My servants ask you concerning Me, surely I am nigh. I answer the prayer of the suppliant when he calls on Me, so they should hear My call and believe in Me that they may walk in the right way.}Truthful Allah the Great [Al-Baqarah] 2:186
{وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُواْ لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُواْ بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ﴿186﴾} صدق الله العظيم[البقرة:186].
Only the supplication (should be) in any time and not permissible the belief that Allah would never respond except in a known time and for that he awaits for that time! In fact the prayer-call is as like the voluntary-prayer in any time, so you would be mentioning Allah much for you may succeed.
..And peace be upon the sent ones, and praise be to Allah Lord of the worlds
