Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Life of Muhammad Examples From the Prophet’s Supplications (a.s.) was the greatest propagandist of Allah in the earth and was the interpreter of His revelation, the leader of monotheists, the master of devotees, and the last of prophets who had raised highly the word of monotheism and had defeated everything worshipped away from Allah.

He spread the knowing of Allah and proved His oneness, and so he lit minds and souls and established edifices of faith and refuted all suspicions of atheists. The Prophet (a.s.) devoted himself totally in his mission to Allah since the first moment when he offered his life and all his powers to spread his religion and to save man from the darkness of ignorance and superstitions. He undertook the educating of man and the refining of his behavior.

He established educational programs for that, so that man might be happy in his life and afterlife. From among those programs was his supplications that could calm down confused souls with the spirituality they (supplications) had. The importance of Du’a (supplication) For the Prophet (a.s.), du’a was too important. Many traditions were transmitted from him showing that.

He said, “Du’a is the very worship.” [1] He said, “Du’a is the key to mercy.” [2] He said, “Du’a is the weapon of believers.” [3] [1] Nahj al-Fasahah, vol. 1 p. 323, quoted from Sunan of Abi Dawud, vol. 1 p. 333, Musnad of Ahmed bin Hanbal, vol. 4 p. 467. [2] Nahj al-Fasahah, vol. 2 p. 323, quoted from Kanzol Ummal, vol. 2 p. 62. [3] Mustadrak al-Hakim, vol. 1 p. 492. The benefits of Du’a The determined, inevitable fate can be repelled by some things, one of which is the du’a.
