The importance of zikr and dua
Question
What is best form of worship? Some hadith I see the prophet saying zikr is best but some hadith i read the prophet saying dua. I need help. Thanks
Answer
Both are good and excellent and both are ibaadat that have to be carried out. Just as rice is important, curry is also important.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
