"In the Name of Allah Most Gracious, Most Merciful"

"When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I respond to the prayer of every suppliant when he calls on Me: Let them also, with a will, listen to My call, and believe in Me: That they may walk in the right way." ~ Qur'an 2:186
