STORY:
THE POWER OF DUA

In a story which Sheikh Ali At-Tantawi narrates, he says:
'I was a judge in Syria, & it so happened that a group of us were spending the night with one of our friends when I suddenly found it difficult to breathe & felt severely suffocated.

I sought permission from my companions to leave but they insisted that I stay the night with them. But I couldn’t, & I told them I want to take a walk & inhale some fresh air. I left them, walking by myself in the dark, whereupon I heard the sound of someone weeping & praying coming from behind a small hill.

I looked & found a woman who appeared to be in distress & misery. She was crying profusely & praying sincerely to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

I approached her & asked, “What is it that is making you cry, my sister?”

She replied, “My husband is a harsh & unjust man. He threw me out of the house, took my children & swore I will never see them again, & I have nobody & no place to go to.”

“Why don’t you take this to a judge?” I asked.

She continued to cry profusely, “How can a woman like me approach a judge?”'

The sheikh completed the story, crying, 'The woman says all of this but does not realise that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala had dragged a judge (meaning himself) by the neck to take him directly to her!'

Subhaan Allah!Glory be to Allah!
Who ordered him to leave in the darkness of the night?
To stop directly in front of her with his two feet & ask her, he himself (as a judge), about her needs?

What supplication did this simple, poor woman make to have it answered with this speed & in this manner?

Oh you who feels distress & misery, who thinks that the world has become dark around him, just raise your hands to the sky, & do not say “How can my problems be solved?”

Rather, humble yourself in front of He who hears the footsteps of the smallest ant.

Be certain, be certain that there is something awaiting you after your patience.

Indeed, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala does not try you with anything except that there is good in it for you, even if you were certain of the opposite.
