When Allaah inspires a person to supplicate and he does so, it is one of the first signs that Allaah desires good (Khair) for the individual.
Umar bin al-Khattaab رضي الله عنه said: “I am not concerned about the response, but what concerns me is the Duaa (itself). If the Duaa is inspired, then the answer (surely) follows it.” [1]
Meaning: Allaah تعالى guides a person to make Du`aa, teaches him how to make it, assists him in performing it, and then grants him what he has requested. Like how Allaah تعالى taught Aadam عليه السلام the words of repentance and thereafter forgave him:
فَتَلَقَّىٰ آدَمُ مِن رَّبِّهِ كَلِمَاتٍ فَتَابَ عَلَيْهِ ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ
{Then Aadam received Words from his Lord. And his Lord pardoned him (accepted his repentance). Verily, He is the One Who forgives (accepts repentance), the Most Merciful.} [2]
