Personally, I believe prayers are answered with either a yes or a no.
Rejection should not be interpreted as an evidence for disbelieving. We shouldn't be desperate from the mercy of God.
When a mercy touches a human population they indeed throw parties and spread cheers, but once a disaster hits because of a war they started, or a hunger they began, or a leakage in a close nuclear plant, they throw tears and quit believing.
It's not that the prayer wasn't answered; but simply it was rejected, and people were left to deal with their own mess.
I can give an example of a smoking dad, who spend his life picking up the wrong decisions, and with every stressful outcome he smoked more and more, and then had a son, 24 years later the son was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.
It's not the fault of God, that the dad was stupid. It was the fault of Tobacco companies, who spent two centuries spreading the poison, just so stressed people like the dad in the story would purchase packs of the infamous poison, making owners of the industry more wealthy.
To invest a stock or two in weapon manufacturing that a militia would purchase and use in Syria, making a child crippled.
And it all falls for those who voted Trump and Bush...it gets repeated and repeated.
With Billions of people.
God answers the prayers, but many humans are not believers. Have no mercy in their hearts; either. Would anything for money and blood.

Quote:Sura 30, Page 408, The Quran:
( 36 ) And when We let the people taste mercy, they rejoice therein, but if evil afflicts them for what their hands have put forth, immediately they despair.
When a mercy touches a human population they indeed throw parties and spread cheers, but once a disaster hits because of a war they started, or a hunger they began, or a leakage in a close nuclear plant, they throw tears and quit believing.
