The Prophet (a.s) said: “God the Almighty said: “There is no creature who seeks help from My other creatures, without My taking away from him the means in the Heavens and the Earth. I shall not give him what he asks Me for, and shall not reply to him when he calls Me. There is no creature that seeks help from Me- not my creatures, without My establishing the Heavens and the Earth as a means of providing for his sustenance. I shall grant him what he asks for, will reply if he calls Me, and will forgive him if he asks for forgiveness.”
قال النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله): يقول الله عز وجل: ما من مخلوق يعتصم بمخلوق دوني إلا قطعت أسباب السماوات والأرض من دونه، فإن سألني لم اعطه وإن دعاني لم أجبه، وما من مخلوق يعتصم بي دون خلقي إلا ضمنت السماوات والأرض رزقه، فإن سألني أعطيته وإن دعاني أجبته، وإن استغفرني غفرت له.
