John Shaqi

سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ ثَلَاثَةٌ تُرَدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ دَعَوْتُهُمْ رَجُلٌ رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ مَالًا فَأَنْفَقَهُ فِي غَيْرِ وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ ارْزُقْنِي فَيُقَالُ لَهُ أَ لَمْ أَرْزُقْكَ وَ رَجُلٌ دَعَا عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ وَ هُوَ لَهَا ظَالِمٌ فَيُقَالُ لَهُ أَ لَمْ أَجْعَلْ أَمْرَهَا بِيَدِكَ وَ رَجُلٌ جَلَسَ فِي بَيْتِهِ وَ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ ارْزُقْنِي فَيُقَالُ لَهُ أَ لَمْ أَجْعَلْ لَكَ السَّبِيلَ إِلَى طَلَبِ الرِّزْقِ .


Translation

Al Husayn Bin Muhammad Al Ashary, from Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Al Washa, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, from Al Waleed Bin Sabeeh who said, ‘I heard him<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘Three (people), their supplication would not be returned upon them – a man whom Allah<sup>azwj</sup> had Graced wealth but he spent it in other than His<sup>azwj</sup> ways, then says, ‘O Lord<sup>azwj</sup>! Grace me sustenance’, so He<sup>azwj</sup> would Say to him: “Did I<sup>azwj</sup> not Grace you (before)?”. And a man who supplicates against his unjust wife, so He<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> would Say to him: “Did I<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> not Make her matter to be in your hands?”; and a man who sits in his house and says, ‘O Lord<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>! Grace me sustenance’, so He<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> would be Saying to him: “Did I<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> not Make the way for you to seek the sustenance?”’.
