If somebody reaches sixty years of age, he has no right to ask Allāh for a new lease of life (to make up for his past shortcomings), for Allāh تعالى says: "...Did We not give you lives long enough, so that whoever would receive admonition — could receive it? And the warner (of Allāh) came to you..." (V.35:37)

6421. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "The son of Ādam (i.e., man) grows old and so also two (desires) grow with him, i.e., his love for wealth and (a wish for) a long life."

Arabic text

6421 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " يَكْبَرُ ابْنُ آدَمَ وَيَكْبَرُ مَعَهُ اثْنَانِ: حُبُّ المَالِ، وَطُولُ العُمُرِ " رَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ
