Prayers and Duas are the mainstay of Islam. A Muslim bows in front of Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى five times a day in compulsory Prayers (Namaz, Salah). They also spend a considerable time of the day and night reciting the Holy Quran and various other duas. That shows the importance of worship in Islam and how Muslims rely on Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى for everything in their life. Reciting a dua is a multipurpose act in Islam. It is a form of worship, a plea, and a humble request of a Muslim in front of his creator seeking His mercy and guidance. Some of the duas are specific for a certain event or occasion. In contrast, some others are offered by a Muslim for the overall betterment of his life in particular and for the entire Muslim Ummah in general. In short, the life of a Muslim revolves around various prayers and duas for almost everything in his life.

Sultan Abdul Hamid II was the last of the great sultans. He came on the stage of history at a time when the empire was bankrupt and could not defend itself against its many enemies. In the face of aggression from without and sabotage from within, hammered by forces of nationalism and weakened by internal sabotage from some of the millets, he waged a valiant battle to preserve what was left of the once mighty empire. In this effort, he was partially successful, preserving its Islamic core for forty years and keeping the empire out of a major war for as long. But his methods and the internal tensions built up by the very modernization processes he had fostered, finally did him in.
