either his supplication is answered quickly, or it is stored up for him in the Next World, or an evil equal to it is averted from him." It was said, "Then many supplications will be made." He replied, "Allah has more still to give."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَدْعُو لَيْسَ بِإِثْمٍ وَلاَ بِقَطِيعَةِ رَحِمٍ إِلاَّ أَعْطَاهُ إِحْدَى ثَلاَثٍ إِمَّا أَنْ يُعَجِّلَ لَهُ دَعْوَتَهُ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَدَّخِرَهَا لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَدْفَعَ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهَا قَالَ إِذًا نُكْثِرُ قَالَ اللَّهُ أَكْثَرُ

the Messenger of Allah said: “There is none who utters a supplication, except that Allah gives him what he asked, or prevents evil from him that is equal to it – as long as he does not supplicate for something evil, or the cutting of ties of the womb.”

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَدْعُو بِدُعَاءٍ إِلاَّ آتَاهُ اللَّهُ مَا سَأَلَ أَوْ كَفَّ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهُ مَا لَمْ يَدْعُ بِإِثْمٍ أَوْ قَطِيعَةِ رَحِمٍ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَعُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “There is not a Muslim upon the earth who makes a dua to Allah with any supplication, except that Allah either (1) grants it to him, or (2) He turns away from him the like of it in evil; as long as he does not supplicate for something sinful, or the severing of the ties of kinship.”

So a man from the people said: “What if we increase [our duas]?” He ﷺ said: “[With] Allah is more.”

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَا عَلَى الأَرْضِ مُسْلِمٌ يَدْعُو اللَّهَ بِدَعْوَةٍ إِلاَّ (١) آتَاهُ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهَا أَوْ (٢) صَرَفَ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهَا؛ مَا لَمْ يَدْعُ بِمَأْثَمٍ أَوْ قَطِيعَةِ رَحِمٍ».

فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ: إِذًا نُكْثِرَ؟ قَالَ: «اللَّهُ أَكْثَرُ».

that the Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no Muslim who calls upon Allah, without sin or cutting family ties, but that Allah will give him one of three answers: (1) He will quickly fulfill his supplication, (2) He will store it for him in the Hereafter, or (3) He will divert an evil from him similar to it.”

They said, “In that case we will ask for more.” The Prophet said, “Allah has even more.”

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَدْعُو بِدَعْوَةٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا إِثْمٌ وَلَا قَطِيعَةُ رَحِمٍ إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ اللهُ بِهَا إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ: (١) إِمَّا أَنْ تُعَجَّلَ لَهُ دَعْوَتُهُ، (٢) وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَدَّخِرَهَا لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ، (٣) وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهَا»

قَالُوا إِذًا نُكْثِرُ، قَالَ: «اللهُ أَكْثَرُ۔»

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "No one invokes a supplication except that Allah gives him what he asked for or protects him from an equivalent evil, as long as he does not invoke for sin or cutting ties of kinship."

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا أَحَدٌ يَدْعُو بِدُعَاءٍ إِلَّا آتَاهُ اللهُ مَا سَأَلَ أَوْ كَفَّ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهُ مَا لَمْ يَدْعُ بِإِثْمٍ أَوْ بِقَطِيعَةِ رَحِمٍ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “There is no Muslim man on the face of the earth who supplicates to Allah with a supplication except that Allah grants it to him, or averts from him an evil equal to it, so long as he does not supplicate for sin or the severing of kinship ties.”

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَا عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ مِنْ رَجُلٍ مُسْلِمٍ يَدْعُو اللهَ بِدَعْوَةٍ إِلَّا آتَاهُ اللهُ إِيَّاهَا أَوْ كَفَّ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهَا مَا لَمْ يَدْعُ بِإِثْمٍ أَوْ قَطِيعَةِ رَحِمٍ».

that the Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no Muslim who calls upon Allah, without sin or cutting family ties, but that Allah will give him one of three answers: (1) He will quickly fulfill his supplication, (2) He will store it for him in the Hereafter, or (3) He will divert an evil from him similar to it.”

They said, “In that case we will ask for more.” The Prophet said, “Allah has even more.” (Using translation from Aḥmad 11133)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَدْعُو اللَّهَ بِدَعْوَةٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا مَأْثَمٌ وَلَا قَطِيعَةُ رَحِمٍ إِلَّا أَعْطَاهُ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ إِمَّا أَنْ يَسْتَجِيبَ لَهُ دَعْوَتَهُ أَوْ يَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ مِنَ السُّوءِ مِثْلَهَا أَوْ يَدَّخِرَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مِثْلَهَا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِذًا نُكْثِرُ قَالَ «اللَّهُ أَكْثَرُ»

"مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَدْعُو الله ﷻ بِدَعْوَةٍ لَيسَ فِيهَا إِثْمٌ وَلا قَطِيعَةُ رَحِمٍ إِلا أَعْطَاهُ الله بِهَا إِحْدَى ثَلاثٍ: إِمَّا أَنْ يُعَجِّلَ لَهُ دَعْوتَهُ، وَإمَّا أَنْ يَدَّخِرَهَا لَهُ في الآخِرَةِ، وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ مِن السُّوءِ مِثْلَهَا. قَالُوا: إِذَنْ نُكْثِرَ؟ قَال: الله أَكثَرُ وَأَطْيَبُ".
