Founder’s Corner: Asking Dua from Allah

Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this post are those of the writer alone and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of SNMC.

By Dr. Emdad Khan

In Surah Al Baqarah verse 186, Allah swt addresses prophet Mohammed (PBUH) and gives us a clue.

2:186

وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِى عَنِّى فَإِنِّى قَرِيبٌ ۖ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ ٱلدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ ۖ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا۟ لِى وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا۟

وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِى عَنِّى فَإِنِّى قَرِيبٌ ۖ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ ٱلدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ ۖ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا۟ لِى وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِى لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ ١٨٦

When My servants ask you ˹O Prophet˺ about Me: I am truly nearby. I respond to one’s prayer when they call upon Me. 

So let them respond ˹with obedience˺ to Me and believe in Me, perhaps they will be guided ˹to the Right Way˺.

— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran

Ramadan is here. Here Allah swt teaches us how to ask from Allah swt. Here it says when we ask about Allah swt. He is near to us, and He responds to our dua.

In replying Allah swt states three things

  • our response will be to obey him
  • we should truly believe in Him
  • then we may expect to be guided to the right path

So, we request a) everyone to seek sincere forgiveness from Him as well as all brothers and sisters

  • make sincerely dua for ourselves, our parents and children
  • have our firm belief in him with sincerity
  • May Allah send special mercy to Palestine and give them peace and tranquility.

May Allah swt accept our dua.
