(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
أَبُو هِلَالٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ
أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا يَزَالُ الْعَبْدُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا لَمْ يَسْتَعْجِلْ " قَالُوا : يَا نبيَّ الله ، كَيْفَ يَسْتَعْجِلُ ؟ قَالَ : " يَقُولُ دَعَوْتُ رَبِّي فَلَمْ يَسْتَجِبْ لِي " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A servant remains on goodness as long as he does not act with haste. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What is meant by haste? He replied: That a servant begins to say, "I have made so many supplications to my Lord, but He has not accepted them."
