Dua

Duʿāʾ (Arabic: دعاء [dʊˈʕæːʔ], plural: ʾadʿiyah أدعية [ʔædˈʕɪjæ], "invocation"/"supplication") literally translates to 'invocation' and is a fundamental act of prayer and worship in Islam. Unlike other formal religious prayers, du'ā' is informal and is considered, by Muslims, a direct channel of communication with the divine. There are multiple types of du'ā' and specific etiquette to be followed when performing du'ā'.
