thought and reflection draw them into great error.
Allah informs us of the end awaiting these people. Our reward or
punishment in the hereafter depends on how we conduct ourselves in this
world and whether we strive to draw closer to Allah. Every person will be
recompensed for his deeds in the hereafter.
- How Can We Supplicate?
Thinking of Allah's might and grandeur, feeling awe of Him and
praying humbly and secretly are essential for supplication. Allah informs
us how to pray in the Qur'an.
Call on your Lord humbly and secretly. He does not love those
who overstep the limits. (Surat al-A'raf: 55)
Supplication cannot be limited to certain places or time. We can
think of Allah and pray to Him at any moment. Allah commands as
follows in the Qur'an:
Those who remember Allah, standing, sitting and lying on their
sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth:
"Our Lord, You have not created this for nothing. Glory be to
You! So safeguard us from the punishment of the Fire." (Surah
Al 'Imran: 191)
