Abu Taymiyyah – The Half Hearted Dua

Sometimes when we make dua,

we make like a half hearted dua. Maybe

make dua,

but

I'm not 100%

sure, or I don't have full certainty that

my Dua will be accepted. So it's a

half hearted Dua.

From the means of getting your Dua accepted

as the prophet

is that a person, he's

He is He has certainty when making that

dua.

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala tells in the Quran,

that which Allah can give you is not

restricted.

It is only us. We have that lack

of belief with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

Rather, we should believe anything that we ask

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

to change our fortunes. We might be poor.

We might have no money. We might have

issues in with our parents or maybe with

our wives and our kids. To ask Allah

that Allah will change it straight away.

If Allah wants something, he says, be and

it becomes.

So make this a day, brothers and sisters,

when you see this opportunity of making Dua

for everyone.

Not only yourselves, but even for other people.

The prophet, Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Salam, he told

us,

when the person he makes dua for his

brother

in his

absence. Like, for example, someone's away. He's in

another country, and I'm making dua for him

in his absence.

The Prophet told us in

Every time he makes the dua, he says,

the malaika says the with him. And for

you, you get the same thing.

In the English language, they have a method,

they say a statement, you're killing 2 birds

with 1 stone.

You're making dua for yourself, and you're making

dua for that person. There's always one dua.

So by you making dua for that person,

you're making dua for yourself as well. And

the Muslim Ummah is in dire need.

I don't need to tell you what's going

on in places like Syria and other places

where the Muslim Ummah is suffering. Some people

they don't even have food to eat. They

don't have drinks. You know, let alone being

able to go and eat in restaurants and

etcetera. So brothers and sisters, use this as

an opportunity to make the dua.

After that,

another point, it is from the sunnah of

the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

on the day of Arafa,

and you'll find that a lot of Ikhtila

Faz argumentation

and disputations take place on this day of

how much we need to pray.
