شأن الدعاء-الإمام الخطابي

Author: Imām al-Khattabī (388 H)

 This is a beneficial work that highlights the lofty status of duʿāʾ (supplication) in Islam and its profound connection to worship, servitude, and reliance upon Allāh. The author explores how duʿāʾ is among the greatest acts of worship, demonstrating a servant’s humility, dependence, hope, and sincerity before his Lord.

Through evidences from the Qur’an and authentic Sunnah, this work discusses the virtues of supplication, the etiquettes of making duʿāʾ, the reasons duʿāʾ is answered or withheld, and the obstacles that may prevent acceptance. It also emphasizes the importance of turning to Allāh in times of ease and hardship, recognizing that true success lies in sincere dependence upon Him alone.

This book serves as a powerful reminder for every Muslim to strengthen their connection with Allāh through heartfelt supplication and to appreciate duʿāʾ as one of the greatest means of attaining goodness in this life and the Hereafter.
