John Shaqi

لَا يَزَالُ الْمُؤْمِنُ بِخَيْرٍ وَ رَجَاءٍ رَحْمَةً مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَا لَمْ يَسْتَعْجِلْ فَيَقْنَطَ وَ يَتْرُكَ الدُّعَاءَ قُلْتُ لَهُ كَيْفَ يَسْتَعْجِلُ قَالَ يَقُولُ قَدْ دَعَوْتُ مُنْذُ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ مَا أَرَى الْإِجَابَةَ .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ibn Mahboub, from Hisham Bin Salim, from Abu Baseer, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The <span class="iTxt">Momin</span> does not cease to be with goodness and hoping for the Mercy of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic for as long as he does not haste, so he would end up despairing and neglect the supplication’. I said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘How would he make haste?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He would be saying, ‘I have been supplicating since such and such (a time) and I do not see the Answer’.
