When you ask Allāh you are a winner in every situation.
“Be aware of the fact that when you ask Allāh you are a winner in every situation, because He will either give you what you ask for or divert an evil which is greater [than what you asked for] away from you or He will store it away for you as reward on the Day of Resurrection. So whoever supplicates to Allāh then he will not be let down – so supplicate to Him a great deal, and seek forgiveness and turn in repentance to Him a great deal.”
[Shaykh Ibn Uthaymīn – Sharh Riyadis-Sālihīn, vol. 6, p. 52.]
