Jurisprudence of Prayers and Remembrance

Description

Sheikh Abdul Raziq said in his book: “Shari'ah dhikr and prophetic supplications have a high status in religion and a special place in the hearts of Muslims, and books of dhikr, in all their diversity, receive great attention and great care among them, and it is not possible to count what has been written by scholars, ancient and modern, on dhikr and supplication, because of the large number of books written in this regard, including those who narrate the news with traditions, some of them omitting them, some of them lengthy and extensive, and others brief, moderate and polished, with differences in collecting texts, presenting evidence, ways of classifying and categorizing them, attention to explaining and explaining them, etc” (Al-Sharif).
