قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) رُبَّمَا دَعَا الرَّجُلُ بِالدُّعَاءِ فَاسْتُجِيبَ لَهُ ثُمَّ أُخِّرَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى حِينٍ قَالَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ وَ لِمَ ذَاكَ لِيَزْدَادَ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ قَالَ نَعَمْ .
Translation
From him, from Ahmad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Mansour Al Sayqal who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘Sometimes the man supplicates with the supplication, so it is Answered for him. Then it is delayed for a while’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’. I said, ‘And why would that be so, in order for him to increase from the supplications?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes’.
