Prayer has special conditions and rules. Prayerful (worshipper) should consider greatness of the great God and also distinguish good and bad so that can ask from the great God his request in an appropriate time and place.
There is no contrary between request in prayer for removing difficulties and patience. Because in spite of the fact that Ayoub (peace be upon him) requested from God to remove his problem, the great God called his "Awab" (resulting to right).
Mystics believe that nature of prayer is the reason of its acceptability because they believe that nature _f prayer is
the divine dispensations which are granted by the great God to worshipper. If response and acceptance is delayed, it is because of that the Great God likes his slaves to cry and supplicate and by such delay cry and supplication of the slave to be increased so that divine dispensations and favour to be highly increased.
Supplications and wishing to be alone in front of the great God is the characteristics of the people who love the great God. Because the love and lover relationship which is made between worshipper and the great God, makes the worshipper to be lover who speaks only about the love and his sad is only for the love. The lover heart is broken, exactly which is the place of love. "I am with broken heart". The lover cries and under the shadow of such cry, the lover achieves the divine light.
