In the Sahih hadith (as graded by Sheikh Al-Albani) from Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 8, Hadith 64, it was narrated by An-Nu’man ibn Bashir: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Supplication (du’a’) is itself the worship.” (He then recited:) “And your Lord said: Call on Me, I will answer you.”
The Quran also mentions in Surah Ghafir, Ayat 40: “And your Lord says, ‘Call upon Me; I will respond to you.’ Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible.”
Without Allah, nothing is possible. We must take the time and effort to remember Him and call upon Him.
