One of 3 things are guaranteed to happen when you make a dua 1 Allah hears it , and fulfills it . 2 Allah hears it , but denies it because either He has something better for you , or He is preventing a disaster that comes about from making that dua which is pretty much the same thing as He has something better for you 3 He ' s saving it until the Day of Judgement , and something will happen such that if you were to see what would happen on that Day with all the duas that were not answered until then , after witnessing what you just witnessed , you would tell Allah I wish you have not answered a single dua in this world and instead saved every single dua I made til this Day . So yeah . Either you have so many disasters waiting for you behind each of those dua and Allah is protecting you from that , or he has chosen you to be one of the few to witness something that ' s supposed to be beyond comprehension on the Day of Judgement . It ' s guaranteed to be one of these two .
