1 ـ الذنب |
38ـ الإمامُ الباقرُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنَّ العبدَ يسألُ اللّهَ الحاجةَ فيكونُ من شَأنِهِ قضاؤها إلى أجلٍ قريبٍ أو إلى وقتٍ بَطيءٍ ، فيُذنِبُ العبدُ ذنباً فيقولُ اللّهُ تَبارَكَ وَتَعالى للمَلَكِ: لا تَقضِ حاجَتَهُ واحرِمْهُ إيَّاها ، فإنَّهُ تَعَرَّضَ لِسَخَطي واستَوجَبَ الحِرمانَ مِنّي. |
1. Sins |
38– Imam al-Baqir (AS) said, ‘Verily a servant asks Allah his need and it is Allah’s way that He either grants it very soon or after some time. The servant sins and Allah – Blessed and most High – says to the angels, ‘Do not grant him, and deprive him of it for verily he has exposed himself to My displeasure and has made himself deserving of My deprivation.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 73, p. 329, no. 11] |
2 ـ الظُّلمُ |
39ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنَّ اللّهَ عزّوجلّ أوحى إلى عيسَى بنِ مَريَمَ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): قُلْ لِلمَلاِء مِن بَني إسرائيلَ ... إنّي غَيرُ مُستَجِيبٍ لِأحَدٍ مِنكُم دَعوَةً ولِأحَدٍ من خَلْقي قِبَلَهُ مَظلِمَةٌ. |
2. Oppression |
39- Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Allah revealed to Prophet Jesus (AS) saying, ‘Tell the community of Israelites that… verily I do not answer the supplication of anyone from among you against whom one of My creation holds a claim of wrong or oppression.’[al-Khisal, p. 337, no. 40] |
40ـ الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنَّ اللّهَ عزّوجلّ يَقولُ: وَعِزَّتي وَجَلالي ، لا اُجِيبُ دَعوَةَ مَظلومٍ دَعاني في مَظلِمَةٍ ظُلِمَها ولأحدٍ عندَهُ مثلُ تِلك المَظلِمَةِ. |
40– Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, ‘Verily Allah says, ‘By My Might and Exaltedness, I do not answer the supplication of one who has been wronged when he calls Me regarding the wrong that has been done unto him, while someone else holds a similar claim of wrong against him.’[Bihar al-Anwar, 75, p. 312, no. 20] |
3 ـ مُناقَضَتُهُ لِلحِكمَة |
41ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): إنَّ كَرَمَ اللّهِ سُبحانَهُ لا يَنقُضُ حِكمَتَهُ ، فَلِذلِكَ لا يَقَعُ الإجابَةُ في كُلِّ دَعوَةٍ . |
3. Opposing Wisdom |
41– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Verily the Kindness of Allah, glory be to Him, does not contradict His Wisdom, therefore not all supplications are answered.’[Ghurar al-Hikam, no. 3478] |
