Supplications – Beauty of Islam 4
In Islam a great deal of emphasis is placed upon supplication, it is described sometime as the essence of the worship and sometimes it is described as worship itself. Supplicating to God-Allah throughout the day removes the heavy burden from the minds of a person and makes life easy and smooth. A Muslim supplicates to Allah as soon as he wakes up and the last thing he does before going to sleep is to supplicate to Allah, his supplications continue throughout the day.
