Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 711
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي الْفُدَيْكِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَوْهَبٍ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: مَا مِنْ مُؤْمِنٍ يَنْصُبُ وَجْهَهُ إِلَى اللهِ يَسْأَلُهُ مَسْأَلَةً، إِلاَّ أَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهَا، إِمَّا عَجَّلَهَا لَهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا، وَإِمَّا ذَخَرَهَا لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مَا لَمْ يَعْجَلْ، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَا عَجَلَتُهُ؟ قَالَ: يَقُولُ: دَعَوْتُ وَدَعَوْتُ، وَلاَ أُرَاهُ يُسْتَجَابُ لِي.
Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “Whenever a believer turns toward Allah and asks Him for something, He grants it to him: either He grants it promptly in this world or stores it up for him in the Hereafter, so long as he does not become impatient.” They asked: “Messenger of Allah, what is his impatience?” He said: “He says, ‘I have supplicated and supplicated, but I do not think I will be answered.’”
