However, the outcome of the acceptance of this dua was only seen forty years later.<\/p>\n<p>It is a sign of a person\u2019s boldness and feeling over-confident that he makes dua, and then expects to see immediate results. This was not even experienced by the Ambiyaa (\u2018alaihimus salaam), even though they were such that their duas were always accepted (i.e. they did not always see the outcome of their duas materialize immediately).<\/p>\n<p>(Malfoozaat Hakeemul Ummat 1\/79-80)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hazrat Moulana Ashraf Ali Thaanwi (rahimahullah) once mentioned the following: In today\u2019s times, the condition of people is quite strange.
