Causes of the Answering of Supplication

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. His other question is: What are the reasons for a supplication to be answered quickly?

Answer:
Speed in the sight of Allah is not something you know; perhaps the response will not come quickly from Allah, for Allah is Wise and All-Knowing, and He knows the interests of His servants. If the interest of the servant lies in hastening the response, He hastens it for him, and if the interest lies in delaying it, He delays it. Among the causes of the acceptance of supplication is sincerity to Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and
So invoke Allah, [being] sincere to Him in religionفَادْعُوا اللَّهَ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ الدِّينَ
[Ghafir 40:14]
, making the supplication sincere to Him, even if the polytheists dislike it. So be sincere to Allah in your supplication. Likewise, among the causes of the acceptance of supplication is using what is lawful in clothing, food, and drink, and leaving what is forbidden, for consuming what is forbidden and using what is forbidden prevents the acceptance of supplication. Yes.
