Communication with the God of the Universes: A Journey Into Divine Mercy and the Human Soul - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

What happens when a human being raises his hands before the Lord of the Worlds?

Supplication, or dua, is the most direct connection a human being can have with his Creator: a line that needs no intermediary, and a technology that never grows old. So why do our prayers so often feel like speaking into silence?

In Communication with the God of the Universes, Muhammad Ali Syed examines supplication closely and plainly. He begins with the make-up of the human being—the spirit, the body, and the self—set out in the plain language of the computer age. From there, he moves through the manner and timing of prayer, the discipline of presence, contentment with the divine decree, the place of gratitude, the favours God grants us before we are even born, and the question of why it is the righteous who are tested.

Every page is grounded in the Qur’an, in the teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them), and in the honest observation of ordinary life. This is not a book of prayers to recite. It is a guide to making prayer a living relationship with the Lord of the Worlds, written for the believer of the modern age who longs for his prayer to be heard.

This is the first English edition of the beloved Urdu work Dua, Rab ul Alameen Aur Insaan.
