Obstacles to the Acceptance of Supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What are the obstacles to the acceptance of supplication, or the delay in its response, O Shaykh?
Answer:
Negligence regarding Allah, and lack of sincerity in supplication. If the heart is negligent and not sincere in its turning to Allah, this is among the causes of supplication not being answered. Disobedience is among the causes of supplication not being answered, as is consuming what is forbidden, disobedience, riba (usury or interest), or what is forbidden through theft, or betrayal, or deception.
Thus, engaging in what is forbidden is among the causes of supplication not being answered. Negligence regarding Allah during supplication is among the causes of supplication not being answered. Disobedience is among the causes of supplication not being answered. We ask Allah for well-being and safety.
The presenter: May Allah preserve you.
