You Haven't Met Your Sister?

Once there was a man who was involved in a difficult situation, so someone gave him a ritual of 40 days to solve his problem but the situation didn't change even after the 40th day.

So one day he was out of his home still struggling through that difficulty, one old man came up to him and said, 'Do you see that man? (while pointing towards a man who was  wearing a robe and a turban) then he said,' The solution to your problem is with that man.' So he went up to him and realised that the man was Shaykh Rajab Ali Khayyat (ra).

Then he explained his problem to him and when he finished his talk, Shaykh Rajab Ali Khayyat (ra) said, 'It's been four years since your sister's husband passed away, and you haven't even met your sister once, yet you expect your problem to be solved?!'

This man says after these words of Shaykh, I went to meet my sister and apologised. Her children cried and complained but eventually I persuaded them and they got satisfied with me.

And the very next morning my problem got solved.
