WA IDH SA’ALAKA `IBD `ANN FA’INN QARB

UJBU DA`WATAD-D`I IDH DA`N

FAL YASTAJB¤ L WALYU’MIN¤ B LA`ALLAHUM YARSHUD¤N

When My servants ask You concerning Me, I am indeed close

(to them): I listen to the prayer of every supplicant when he calls Me.

Let them also, with a will, listen to My call, and believe in Me,

so that they may walk on the right way.

Al Baqarah 186

QUL M YA`-BA’U BIKUM RABB LAWL DU-` ’UKUM

Say “(O rejecters) My Lord is not concerned

if you do not worship Him”.

Al Furqan 77

On the authority of Anas t who said I heard the Messenger of Allah r

saying, Allah I the Almighty has said:

“O son of Adam, as long as you call upon Me, I shall forgive you for

what you have done, and I shall not mind. O son of Adam, were

your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask

forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you. O son of Adam, were you to

come to Me with sins as great as the earth and were you then to face

Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would grant you forgiveness as

great as it”.

Imam Shafi’ said:

You belittle to supplicate

And ignore its fruit

It is like an arrow, great

But! Night’s arrows do not fail

It has a definite span

That is duly faint

SUPPLICATION

Praise be to Allah I, we thank Him, seek His Help and His

Forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah I from the evils of ourselves and

that of our bad deeds. He whom Allah I guides, is truly guided, and

he whom Allah I leaves to stray, none can guide him. I bear witness

that there is no god but Allah I , besides Him no other partner is and I

bear witness that Muhammad r is His Messenger.

When one is in suffering, or is befallen by catastrophe; when one is

estranged and despondent and ultimately frustrated: then one

unconsciously seeks the One Whose mercy is all-embracing. He is

more Merciful than a mother to her child. His is the refuge we seek. It

is He Who hears the weeping of the oppressed and accepts those who

repent to Him. He showers His bounties and His blessings upon them.

Thus, a believer should earnestly invoke Allah I and concentrate

solely on Him as stated in the following ayah :

AMMAY YUJBUL MU£ARRA IDH DA`HU WA YAKSHIFUS

S¤’A WA YAJ`ALUKUM KHULAF’AL-AR.

A’ILHUM MA`AL-LH. QALLAM M TADHAKKAR¤N .

...(He) Who listens to the distressed when they call on Him,

and Who relieves their suffering, and makes you inheritors of

the earth? Is there another god besides Allah?

Little indeed is what you heed!

An Naml 62

He should also humbly supplicate to Allah I with devout words and

sincere determination. The soul then enjoys the light of its Lord and a

believer feels ease and safety that permeates in his veins and

throughout his body. He feels in companionship with the Ever-lasting

Power, that he is newly born and that Allah I is close to him.

When My servants ask You concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them):

I listen to the prayer of every supplicant when he calls Me. Let them also,

with a will, listen to My call, and believe in Me, so that they may walk on

the right way. Al Baqarah186

Thus, Du'a constitutes worship as the prophet r has expressed. That is

because Du'a means servility, humbleness, and is an expression of a

need for the One in Whose Hand is the authority over everything. It is

also a response to the Order of Allah I as He says,
