باب ما يدخر للداعي من الأجر والثواب
Chapter: Reward stored for the supplicant
Hadith Number: 551
551/711 عن ابي هريرة، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:" ما من مؤمن ينصب وجهه إلى الله، يساله مسالة إلا اعطاه إياها، إما عجلها له في الدنيا، وإما ذخرها له في الآخرة ما لم يعجل". قال: يا رسول الله! وما عجلته؟ قال:" يقول: دعوت ودعوت، ولا اراه يستجاب لي".
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "Whenever any believer humbles his face before Allah and asks Him for anything, Allah grants it to him—either Allah gives it to him quickly in this world, or He stores it for him in the Hereafter—as long as he does not act impatiently." They asked: "O Messenger of Allah! What is impatience?" He replied: "That he says: 'I have made many supplications, many supplications, but I do not see that my prayers are being answered.'"
