Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، أَنَّ رَبِيعَةَ بْنَ يَزِيدَ حَدَّثَهُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ‏:‏ يُسْتَجَابُ لأَحَدِكُمْ مَا لَمْ يَدْعُ بِإِثْمٍ أَوْ قَطِيعَةِ رَحِمٍ، أَوْ يَسْتَعْجِلَ فَيَقُولُ‏:‏ دَعَوْتُ فَلاَ أَرَى يَسْتَجِيبُ لِي، فَيَدَعُ الدُّعَاءَ‏.‏

Translation

‘Abd Allah related to us: Mu‘awiya related to us that Rabi‘a ibn Yazid narrated to him, from Abu Idris, from Abu Hurayra, from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, who said: “Each of you will be answered so long as he does not supplicate for a sin or for severing ties of kinship, or become impatient and say, ‘I supplicated, but I do not see that I am being answered,’ and then give up supplicating.”
