وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ ۖ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ ۖ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ

"And when My servants ask you concerning Me—indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me. So let them respond to Me and believe in Me, that they may be [rightly] guided."

اور جب میرے بندے آپ سے میرے بارے میں پوچھیں تو بے شک میں قریب ہوں۔ پکارنے والے کی پکار کو قبول کرتا ہوں جب وہ مجھے پکارے۔ پس وہ بھی میری بات مانیں اور مجھ پر ایمان رکھیں تاکہ وہ ہدایت پائیں۔

Explanation

Placed among Ramadan verses, this promise of Allah's nearness and responsiveness to dua encourages believers to call upon Him constantly, especially during fasting.

Context

Uniquely intimate—no intermediary mentioned; Allah speaks directly of His closeness.
