Epigraph:
And when My servants ask you about Me, say: I am near. I answer the prayer of the supplicant when he prays to Me. So they should lend an ear to Me and believe in Me, that they may follow the right way. (Al Quran 2:187)

Say to the disbelievers: What would my Lord care for you, were it not for your prayers.  You have indeed rejected the Truth, and the chastisement will now cleave to you.’ (Al Quran 25:78)
