Du’a for all times
The power of du’a
Du’a is a means of communicating and connecting with our Creator. Du’a allows us to thank Allah, to recognise His greatness and to call upon Him in times of need. It drives arrogance away from our hearts and humbles us by reminding us of the power and mercy of Allah.
“Call upon me; I will respond to you.”
[40:60]
