The reader who glorifies Allāh, makes dufiā√ and dhikr to

Allāh  undertakes the best of activities, and the primary manner
for a person to bring themselves nearer towards Allāh the Glorified

and Most High. Dufiā√ and dhikr are keys to all the goodness that

will be obtained by a servant on this earth and in the Hereafter, and
in the prevention of all forms of that which is vile, as well as

bringing about various benefits and preventing the arrival of

danger. Imām Ibnu Qayyim ﷲا ﻪﲪر said: “When Allāh gives a key to

a servant, it means Allāh will open (the door to goodness) for ‘him’

and when a person is mislead by Allāh, it means ‘he’ will remain at
the front of that door”. When a person does not open ‘his’ heart to

dufiā√ and dhikr, then ‘his’ heart is always indecisive, always upset,
‘his’ thinking is chaotic, and his passion and desire are weak.

However, when a servant always performs dufiā√ and dhikr,
always seeks refuge in Allāh from the various evils, then

undoubtedly ‘his’ heart is calm because of the remembrance of
Allāh. Allāh  decrees:
