Duʿāʾ is the believers weapon and a foundational pillar of faith (Īmān)
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Duʿāʾ (supplication) is the weapon of the believer, the pillar of religion, and the nūr (light) of the heavens and the earth."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الدُّعَاءُ سِلَاحُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَعِمَادُ الدِّينِ وَنُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ»
