The Shaykh :"And likewise the supplication of the oppressed also ascends *** truly to Him, the One who severs the worlds"
The supplication of the oppressed also ascends to Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Mu'adh ibn Jabal:Sahih Muslim 19a It is raised above the clouds, and Allah the Exalted responds to his supplication even if he is a disbeliever. The oppressed, even if he is a disbeliever, Allah the Exalted responds to his supplication. Why? Not because Allah loves him, but because Allah loves justice and fairness. Fairness to the oppressed against the oppressor is justice, and injustice is not justice. So, out of Allah's love for justice, He accepts the supplication of the oppressed, even if he is a disbeliever, against the one who oppressed him. For this reason, the scholars say that we treat the disbeliever and the believer equally in the chapter of judgment and adjudication. Even though we are human, if a believer and a disbeliever come to the judge to dispute, it is not permissible for the judge to favor the Muslim at all. They all enter, they all enter, and they sit before the judge together. He looks at them with one look; he does not look at the disbeliever with a face of anger and at the Muslim with a face of satisfaction, because the position is a position of justice, a position of justice.
Now, is it permissible to stand for the believer and not stand for the disbeliever in the chapter of adjudication? No, because this is contrary to justice. If Allah Mighty and Majestic, if we are the executors of the judgments of Allah, justice is obligatory upon us, even with disbelievers, so what about the Lord who is the most just of the just? If someone is oppressed, even if he is from among the disbelievers, and he supplicates to Allah, He responds to him. It is mentioned that some judge had a brother-in-law, and the brother-in-law is the

The Shaykh : close relative of the husband. And this brother-in-law had a dispute with someone, so the brother-in-law entered the house, the judge's house, the judge's house, because it was his daughter or his sister or something similar. And when he sensed the arrival of the disputant, he came from the house for the dispute. And the judge, when he first came, came and entered the house; he did not mean anything by it, he did not suspect a dispute. So when the disputant came, the brother-in-law said, "What brought you?" He said, "There is a dispute between me and so-and-so." He said, "The place for the dispute is tomorrow. From whom?
The student: ...
The Shaykh : Here, the place for the dispute is tomorrow, meaning he is not doing it today. When you came from my house, from inside the house, you say, "My father, I will dispute with so-and-so tomorrow. Come, you and him, and let all of you enter, and I will judge between you." Yes, and it must be so, because Allah the Exalted loves those who are just.
So, we say that the oppressed and the one in dire necessity, Allah responds to their supplication even if they are disbelievers. As for the one in dire necessity, it is because the mercy of Allah precedes His anger. And as for the oppressed, it is because Allah is a just Judge who does not give the oppressor a chance. Yes.
The supplication of the oppressed also ascends to Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Mu'adh ibn Jabal:
Beware of the supplication of the oppressed for there is no barrier between him and Allah.
