Fatwa #559616 May 2002United States of America
Since Allah s.w.t. answers all Du’aa, then why are certain times more auspicious to make Du’aa? Since Allah s.w.t. is omnipresent, why is it said HE comes down to the 1st sky at the time of Tahajjud?
Question
Refer Q4143 ? Best times to make Supplications; Qur?an Baqarah:186 ?.I answer the prayer of the suppliant when he cries to me?. Please explain your response in detail.
Answer
Yes, it is true that Allah Ta'ala answers all Du'aas. However, there are
certain times or places that draw the special mercy or attention of Allah Ta
'ala. For instance, at the time of Tahajjud or within the Haram Shareef at
Makkah.
'Comind down to the first sky', etc. is not in its literal sense. It could
mean that His Tajalliyaat (Hid Divine light) comes down or the words 'coming
down' is used in a form of Tamtheel (portrayal or exemplification) of Allah
Ta'ala's special attention towards something.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
