77 — Those Whose Supplications Are Answered

We previously mentioned times and circumstances in which supplications are answered. These are blessed times and circumstances in which a servant draws nearer to his Lord, pleads with Him more earnestly, and turns to Him with greater devotion, closeness, and sincerity. The blessed Sunnah of the Prophet contains numerous references of this kind, in which the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, explains that the supplication of someone in such a state will not be rejected. Here, I shall mention a number of texts from the Sunnah concerning those whose supplications are not rejected.

Among those whose supplications are not rejected, as related in the Sunnah, are the fasting person until he breaks his fast, the traveler, the parent who supplicates for or against his child, and the oppressed. In al-Sunan al-Kubrā of al-Bayhaqī, Anas—may Allah be pleased with him—narrated a hadith traced back to the Prophet: “Three supplications are not rejected: the supplication of a parent, the supplication of a fasting person, and the supplication of a traveler.”1.

Al-Tirmidhī, Abū Dāwūd, and Ibn Mājah narrated from Abū Hurayrah—may Allah be pleased with him—that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “Three supplications are undoubtedly answered: the supplication of the oppressed, the supplication of the traveler, and the supplication of a parent for his child.”2 It was also narrated by

(1) Al-Bayhaqī, al-Sunan al-Kubrā, 3/345; authenticated as sahih by the eminent scholar al-Albānī, may Allah have mercy on him, in al-Sahīhah, no. 1797. (2) Sunan Abī Dāwūd, no. 1536; Sunan Ibn Mājah, no. 3862; and Sunan al-Tirmidhī, no. 1905. The eminent scholar al-Albānī, may Allah have mercy on him, graded it hasan in al-Sahīhah, no. 596.
٧٧ ـ مَن تُستجابُ دعوتُهم تقدم معنا الإشارةُ إلى أوقاتٍ وأحوالٍ تُجاب فيها الدعوات، وهي أوقاتٌ وأحوالٌ فاضلة يزداد فيها قُربُ العبدِ من ربِّه ويَعْظُم إلْحاحُه عليه، ويَقوى إقبالُه وقربه وإخلاصه، وفي السنة النبوية المباركة إشاراتٌ إلى أمور عديدة من هذا القبيل يُنبّه فيها رسولُ الله ﷺ أنَّ من كان كذلك فإنَّ دعوتَه لا تُردُّ. ولَعلِّي أشير هنا إلى جملةٍ من نصوص السنة الواردة فيمن لا ترد دعوتهم. فمِمَّا ورد في السنة أنَّ دعوتهم لا ترد: الصائم حتى يفطر، ودعوة المسافر، ودعوة الوالد لولده أو عليه، ودعوة المظلوم، ففي السنن الكبرى للبيهقي من حديث أنس ﵁ مرفوعاً: " ثلاثُ دعواتٍ لا تُردُّ: دعوةُ الوالد، ودعوةُ الصائم، ودعوة المسافر "١. وروى الترمذي وأبو داود وابن ماجه عن أبي هريرة ﵁ قال: قال رسول الله ﷺ: " ثلاثُ دعوات يستجاب لهنّ لا شكّ فيهنَّ: دعوة المظلوم، ودعوة المسافر، ودعوة الوالد لولده "٢، وقد رواه
١ السنن الكبرى للبيهقي (٣/٣٤٥) ، وصححه العلامة الألباني ﵀ في الصحيحة (رقم:١٧٩٧) . ٢ سنن أبي داود (رقم:١٥٣٦) ، وسنن ابن ماجه (رقم:٣٨٦٢) ، وسنن الترمذي (رقم:١٩٠٥) ، وحسنه العلامة الألباني ﵀ في الصحيحة (رقم:٥٩٦) .
