Why do prayers from other faiths seem to work?

Salam alaikum. English isn't my first language, so forgive any mistakes. For a long time, I've wondered why our duas are accepted. But my real question is: why do the prayers of people from other faiths work? I’ve seen it happen. I live in a community with many different beliefs. My Jewish and Christian neighbors also pray, and I’ve noticed their prayers being answered. If their prayers are answered, doesn’t that mean there’s some truth or sacredness in their faith? (Hope 'sacredness' is the right word.)

Simple: Allah's mercy isn't limited to Muslims. Rizq, health, children He gives to all. That doesn't make their faith true. Even animals get answered when they call Him.

Your Jewish neighbors believe in One God, same origin. Maybe remnants of truth still with them, so their prayers are heard. But now Islam is the complete truth.

Read Surah Al-Kahf. Some non-Muslims get good in this life but still end up losers. Focus on your deen, don't overthink. Waswasa maybe?
