الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

لا يَزالُ المُؤمِنُ بِخَيرٍ و رَجاءَ رَحمَةٍ مِنَ اللّهِ ما لَم يَستَعجِلْ فَيَقنَطُ وَ يَترُكُ الدُّعاءَ . قُلتُ لَهُ : كَيفَ يَستَعجِلُ ؟ قالَ : يَقولُ : قَد دَعَوتُ مُنذُ كَذا و كَذا و ما أرَى الإجابَةَ !

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

The believer continues to remain in goodness, comfort, and mercy from Allah as long as he doe’s not seek a hasty response [to his supplication], doe's not despair and abandon supplication as a consequence of his despair'. The Imam was asked, 'How does he hasten?', to which he (as) replied, 'He says, 'I have supplicated since such and such a time and I do not yet see an answer.

Abū Jaʿfar, Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb b. Isḥāq al-Kulaynī Al-Rāzī (Arabic: ابوجعفر، محمّد بن یعقوب بن اسحاق الرازی) (c. 255/868-9 - 329/941) was among the greatest Shi'a hadith scholars and the author of al-Kafi, the most authentic Shi'a hadith collection and one the Four Books. He was born after the martyrdom of Imam al-'Askari (a), at the time of Imam al-Mahdi (a) and met some hadith transmitters who directly had heard hadiths from Imam al-Hadi (a) and Imam al-'Askari (a). It is said that al-Kulayni was very accurate in transmitting hadiths. Ibn Qulawayh, Muhammad b. Ali Majilawayh al-Qummi, Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Zurari were among his students.
