Blessings of Prayer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Book-Title Barkat ud Dua (1893)

Blessings of Prayer (Book) [English rendering of barakatud Du‘a (Urdu)] is a book by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, published in 1893. It was written in refutation of Sir Syed Ahmad Khan’s [1] view that there is no such thing as the acceptance of prayer, and that prayer is no more than a form of worship. Ahmad proclaims that Allah hears and accepts the supplication of believers which are offered in humility and sincerity, and that the acceptance of prayer sets in motion its own chain of causes which culminates in the fulfillment of the objective prayed for.
