Understanding Allah’s Promise: The Power of Supplication in Islam

The Divine Assurance of Response to Your Supplications

ALLĀH’S PROMISE OF RESPONSE TO SUPPLICATIONS

ALLĀH says,

And your Lord says, “Call upon ME; I will respond to you.” {Ghāfir || Verse 60}

˹It is˺ the promise of ALLĀH. ALLĀH does not fail in HIS promise, but most of the people do not know." {Ar-Rūm || Verse 6}
Abu Huraira (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) said, “Every one of you will have his supplications answered, as long as he is not impatient and he says: 'I have supplicated but I was not answered.'” {Al-Bukha‌ri‌ #6340, Muslim #2735}

Jubayr ibn Mut’im (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) said, “ALLĀH Almighty descends every night to the lowest heaven, and HE says: Are there any asking that I may give them? Are there any seeking forgiveness that I may forgive them? This continues until the rise of dawn.” {Musnad Ah‌mad #16745}

Ibn al-Qayyim (may ALLĀH have mercy on him): “ALLĀH guarantees subsistence to whoever worships HIM, victory is for whoever trusts in ALLĀH and asks HIS support sufficiency is for whoever takes ALLĀH as his only aim, forgiveness is for whoever asks for it, and ALLĀH will fulfill the needs of whoever asks HIM sincerely and trusts in HIM. He, who is clever, cares for the orders of ALLĀH and knows that ALLĀH is true to HIS promise. ALLĀH says, ‘And whose promise is truer than ALLĀH’s?’ (9:111)”
