Sunan Ibn Majah 3828 (Book 34, Hadith 2) #33182
Supplication as Worship

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) taught that supplication is a form of worship and recited a verse from the Quran to emphasize this point.

It was narrated from Nu'man bin Bashir that : the Messenger of Allah (SAWS) said: "Indeed the supplication is the worship". Then he recited: "And your Lord said: Invoke Me, I will respond to you".
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ ذَرِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ، عَنْ يُسَيْعٍ الْكِنْدِيِّ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏"‏ إِنَّ الدُّعَاءَ هُوَ الْعِبَادَةُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ‏{وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ}‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Make Du'a/Invoke God often

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) taught that supplication is an important form of worship. He recited a verse from the Quran to emphasize this point which reads “And your Lord said: Invoke Me, I will respond to you”. This hadith teaches us that when we make du'a or invocation to Allah, He will answer our prayers if it is in accordance with His will. We should not forget that Allah knows what is best for us and we should always be patient and trust in His plan for us. We should also remember that making du'a or prayer can be done at any time and in any place; it does not have to be done only during formal prayer times or at mosques. Therefore, we should take advantage of every opportunity we have to make du'a and ask Allah for help with our problems or worries.
