Is the prayer of the cruel hearted person accepted?

SHAFAQNA – The cruelty of the heart prevents acceptance of Dua. Meaning whatever a person asks God with the spirit which is hard and stony toward his brother in religion will not be accepted. It is narrated from Imam Sadeq (AS) who said: Allah (SWT) does not accept a request which there is a stony heart behind it. If your Dua is accompanied with a soft and kind heart, your request will be accepted, otherwise if you have a hard/rigid heart in regard to your brother in religion, then it will not [1].
