Q:

Assalamualaikum

I have a doubt that I’ve never got an answer hope I’d get it from here.

We all know that on the onset of yaumul qiyamah muslims face a lot of adversities and the world will be against them but at that time if a true believer cries for his muslims brothers safety will that dua be accepted ?

Wa `alaykum As-Salamu waRahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.

Many people hasten to expect a quick response for their supplications. Abu Hurayrah reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “You will be answered as long as you are not impatient and say, ‘I have made a dua and I have not been answered .’ ” (Al-Bukhari)

Some people think that supplication is supposed to be answered in a certain way, but Allah may give a person of three alternatives. Abu Hurayrah reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “No believer turns his face to Allah and asks Him for something but that He gives it to him, either by giving it to him sooner in this world or storing it up for him in the Next World, as long as he does not try to make it come quickly.” They asked, “Messenger of Allah, what does ‘making it come quickly’ mean?” He said, “He says, ‘I asked and asked and do not think that I will be answered.'” (Al-Bukhari, al-Adab al-Mufrad)

Almighty Allah knows best.
