These exalted themes of these supplications, are the most explicit manifestation of miracles, proving the authenticity of divine mission of the Ahlulbayt [a].

And the one who desires to appreciate more about the splendor, of these supplication should compile his own prayer; then he should compare it with these supplications in order to discover the limits of variation between his own and theirs.
You will not find one hundredth of realities and learning (which have been incorporated in these supplications), in other speeches or in narrations and lengthy sermons of other men
The mystery of this could be that the Ahlulbayt in their supplications and hymns have spoken with Allah (the Glorious, the Exalted). Obviously, the degree of speech, its culmination, and descent depends upon the degree of intelligence and comprehension of the addressee; the delicate and sensitive points which are spoken before an aware and knowledgeable addressee are not spoken before some one who lacks these characteristics.
Yes! These supplications, reached to us through the Prophet's Ahlul-Bait [a] as though form the complete reflection, or echo of whatever is contained in the Holy Qur'an. Or in other words these supplications constitute on Ascending-Qur'an in front of a Descending-Qur'an. The later is the holy scripture which was revealed by Allah (the Glorious, the Exalted), to his esteemed servant - Prophet Muhammad [s], while the former constitutes the Qur'an from Allah's most distinguished servants, ascending upward towards Him.
While the Qur'an is Allah's communications and candid words with his esteemed servants; these supplications are a communication of Allah's esteemed servant with Him, and this matter is not accepted and comprehended by any one, except a small number of believers who are thoroughly familiar and enlightened.
Also, it should be emphasized that the Ahlulbayt through these supplications have done a great favour to us by leaving such precious souvenirs - the souvenirs and blessings, for which we are helpless to thank; it is our obligation to appreciate their worth; in our actions must utilize the etiquette and proper manners as recommended by them; and must try with best of our abilities lest we act as unthankful and unappreciative of truth.

These supplications /conversations with Almighty awaken the divine spirit in man
For A Non- Muslim perspective
Du‘ā’: When Desire Becomes a Heartfelt Turning Toward God Extract of Book by Abbas HumaidIn the Islamic worldview, du‘ā’ (supplication) is not merely a means of requesting material outcomes—it is a sincere, inward turning of the heart toward God. It is an ongoing affirmation that all power belongs to Him alone.
Du‘ā’ is not a message sent to the universe; it is an intimate conversation with the Creator. It is not a tool to “program reality” through mental force, but a sacred connection that nourishes faith, reorders priorities, and keeps the heart alive with its need for God.
God says in the Qur’an: “Say: My Lord would not care for you were it not for your supplication.” (Al-Furqān, 77) This verse gives du‘ā’ existential weight. It is not a mere ritual—it is the very signature of the relationship between the servant and their Lord.
From a Spiritual Perspective: Certainty and Divine Unity When a believer raises their hands in du‘ā’, they are not addressing a vague or abstract force in the universe—they are affirming their deepest creed: that nothing they seek can come to pass except by God’s permission, and nothing they fear can be repelled except by His mercy.
This simple act of supplication frees the heart from anxiety, reminding the soul that its path is not governed by chaos, but lovingly directed by the One who is more merciful to them than they are to themselves. They are not walking alone.
God declares in the Qur’an: “And when My servants ask you concerning Me—indeed, I am near. I respond to the call of the supplicant when he calls upon Me.” (Al-Baqarah, 186)
In this light, du‘ā’ is not merely the listing of desires—it is a profound act of faith, a renewal of hope, a restoration of spiritual connection, and a deepening of trust in the Divine.
From a Practical Perspective: Motivation and Sustained Effort
Du‘ā’ does not replace action—it empowers it. It prepares the soul to act with greater sincerity, deeper awareness, and a stronger connection to God. The believer does not pray instead of striving; they pray so they never fall into the illusion that striving alone is enough.
And when the specific outcome is not granted in the way they hoped, the believer is not consumed by despair. They trust that the answer may come in another form, at another time, or perhaps through the quiet removal of a harm they will never even see.
Du‘ā’ keeps the journey alive with hope. It protects the goal from becoming a source of pressure or obsession. It ensures that ambition remains liberating, not enslaving—and that every step forward is infused with meaning, rather than burdened by expectation.
Du‘ā’ Is Not Clinging—It Is Surrender
In the spiritual philosophy of du‘ā’, the believer does not remain confined to what they want—they open themselves to what God wants for them. And in this sacred shift lies the deepest freedom: freedom from anxious attachment, and from the fear of unfulfilled outcomes.
Lady Fatimah Al-Zahra (peace be upon her) expressed this truth with luminous clarity: “Whoever raises their pure worship up to God, God will send down upon them what is most beneficial.”
True supplication is not an attempt to impose our will upon destiny. It is a doorway into the realm of Divine Oneness, where we pray with full trust, strive with sincerity, and surrender with serenity— believing that whatever comes from God is best, even if it is delayed or arrives in a form we did not expect.
Action: Walking the Earth with a Heaven-Focused Intention
In the Islamic worldview, action is not merely a tool for achieving ambitions—it is a manifestation of servitude to God and a fulfillment of the human role as a vicegerent upon the earth. The purpose of our creation is not to remain idle or indulge in wishful thinking—it is to strive, to build, and to purify the soul through movement and responsibility.
