الدُّعَاءُ
This verse reveals Allah's closeness and His promise to respond to supplication.
وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌۖ أُجِيبُ دَعۡوَةَ ٱلدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِۖ
And when My servants ask you concerning Me, indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me.
Quran, Al-Baqara 2:186
In this verse, Allah directly answers a question about His closeness. He affirms that He is near and promises to respond to the supplication of the one who calls upon Him. The end of the verse then gives the servants two invitations: to respond to Allah and believe in Him, so that they may be rightly guided. In daily life, this encourages us to turn to Allah with confidence, knowing that He hears us and is near, even in difficult times.
Today, take a moment to supplicate to Allah sincerely, asking Him for what you need, and remember that He is near and responds.
