Why Dua Isn’t Answered the Way You Expect

Описание: Many people make duʿāʾ sincerely, yet feel that their supplications are not answered the way they expect. Does this mean Allah is not listening — or is something deeper missing?

In this powerful reminder, Shaykh Bilal Assad explains a beautiful narration in which the Prophet ﷺ describes a man who supplicated Allah using the Greatest Name of Allah. The Prophet ﷺ affirmed that when Allah is called upon with this name — with true understanding and belief — He responds.

This reminder clarifies that duʿāʾ is not only about the words we say, but about how deeply we understand who Allah is when we call upon Him. The name “Allah” encompasses all of His Names, Attributes, and the reality of pure tawḥīd. When duʿāʾ is made with comprehension, sincerity, and faith, it transforms the way we ask and the way we trust Allah’s response.

🎙️ Excerpt from a lecture by Shaykh Bilal Assad

May Allah settle our affairs, accept our supplications, and keep our hearts firm upon guidance. Ameen
