God, the All-Mighty, Merciful and Compassionate,
revealed in the Qur'an that He is close to man and will
answer people when they pray to Him. One of the relevant
verses is as follows:
If My servants ask you about Me, I am near. I answer
the call of the caller when he calls on Me. They
should therefore respond to Me and believe in Me so
that they will be guided aright. (Surat al-Baqara: 186)
As stated in the verse above, God is close to everybody.
He has knowledge of everyone's wishes, feelings, thoughts,
every word uttered, anything whispered and even what is
concealed deep in one's thoughts. Consequently, God hears
and knows everyone who turns to Him and prays to Him.

His mercy, grace and infinite power.
God has infinite might and knowledge. He is the
Possessor of everything in the entire universe. Every being,
