The Delay of the Response to Supplication and the Meaning of the Hadith: "Call upon Allah while being certain of the response"

Question:
Shaykh, he also inquires about the hadith . I supplicate often, but the fulfillment of my request is delayed.

Answer:
Yes, there may be a benefit in the delay of the response, and Allah the Exalted knows best what is best for His servants. The benefit may lie in hastening the response, or it may lie in delaying it. So, do not say, "I called and called, but I did not see my supplication answered," and then abandon supplication. Do not stop making supplication. Allah is near and responsive. The delay in the response may be either because the supplication is not valid, or because Allah wants good for you through the delay. Yes.
