Ever wonder why our pleas to Allah for the Oppressed aren’t answered?

Some Necessary-Perspective:

Adam, the Father of Humanity (Peace be upon him), was evicted from the Paradise, because of only one act of disobedience against Allah, Jonah (Peace be upon him) was cast into the belly of a large sea-creature, because of only one act of disobedience against Allah, the Companions of Muhammad (Peace be upon him) lost the Battle of Uhud, because of only one act of disobedience against Allah & His Messenger (May Allah be pleased with them altogether). Now, in comparison to our times…how often are we oppressed, by the enemies of Allah, the enemies of Islam? Far too many…agreed? Yes. However, let’s also think about how many sins we commit & how often we commit sins against ourselves, as well as against others. So, when we have our hands raised in Prayer, asking Allah to relive the suffering of the Believers, yet we ourselves behave as Disbelievers, due to our massive sinful actions, when we cry over the death-tolls in places where the Muslims are persecuted, yet fiend to be buddy-buddy & compete for photo-ops with the same Politicians who make laws supporting the regimes & military-forces that invade/oppress the Muslims & People around the World period, when we complain about Islamophobia, yet there are fellow Billionaire-Muslims who invest freely into the same companies which promote the Islamophobic propaganda against Islam & Muslims, when our voices reach their peaks on the pulpits of Mosques & we scream-and-shout about justice, yet we treat one another unjustly, because of `Asabiyyah/Bias, manifested via Nepotism, Ethnocentrism, Culturism, Racism, Tribalism, Colorism, etc., how in the Hell are we gonna possibly achieve & acquire the Victory of Allah? In all fairness, why should Allah grant us anything that we ask for, if we aren’t loyal & dutiful to Him? Why should Allah grant us protection, and triumph over our enemies, when we do the exact same negative things which they do? We gotta evolve, we gotta improve, and it has to start now, today!!!

  1. Or rather perhaps it’s because Allah doesn’t want our dua for our oppressed brothers and sisters…. Perhaps it’s that He wants us to take meaningful action. There is no where I have come across where someone is in need and Allah says – Make dua for them. It’s always help them!

    1. @Mazen…Muhammad (Peace be upon him) always made Du`a’ for People, when they were in need. For example, whenever someone was sick that Muhammad had ever visited, regardless to whether they were even a Muslim or Non-Muslim, he would make Du`a’ for them. Now, obviously, those whom are Ill are in need of Cures, are they not? #ThinkAboutIt

  2. Bismilah.

    Allah answers our prayers! And will answer every plea we make for ourselves and for the oppressed. Oh Allah please increase us in prayer ameen.

    We just need to be more proactive in rectifying ourselves and doing what we can that wil help the oppressed even if they are small deeds.

    Oh Allah forgive us ameen.
    May Allah swt lift the oppression from all those that are suffering injustices around the world and bless the Muslims to rectify and to do righteous actions that affects postive change in this world. Ameen
