Being Persistent When Asking of Allāh


[الإلحاحُ في الدّعاء]

قال الإمامُ الثّوريّ:"الإلحاحُ لا يصلُحُ ولا يجمُل إلا على الله عزوجل"

(الآداب الشرعية)(٢/ ١٧٩)

وقال الإمام ابن القيم:"وأحبُّ خلقه إليه أكثرهُم وأفضلهم له

 سؤالاً،وهو يجب الملحّين في الدّعاء،وكلما ألحّ العبدُ عليه في

 السؤال أحبه وأعطاه"

(حادي الأرواح)(١/ ١٨١)

The shaikh, Dr. ʿAbdullāh Al-Bukhārī, may Allāh protect him, said:

Being Persistent When Asking [of Allāh]

Imām Al-Thawrī said: Asking persistently of other than Allāh, Almighty and Majestic, is neither right nor suitable.

And Imām Ibn Al-Qayyim said:

The most beloved of creation to Him are those most frequent and best at asking of Him, and He loves those who persist in asking [of Him]; everytime a slave is persistent upon asking [of Him], He loves him and gives to him.

ādī Al-Arwā, vol. 1, p. 181.
