Removal of content
[edit]I removed the reference to dhikr beads... Du'a has nothing to do with prayer beads. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.146.77.197 (talk) 23:01, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
I removed a reference to acronyms and third grade speehces which clearly referred to an older version of the arcitle. Oliver Low (talk) 15:57, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
Supplication versus Petition
[edit]We need to consider differentiating between prayer of supplication and prayer of petition. The meanings of the words overlap considerably, and in various situations have more specific and distinct meanings - for instance "petition" has a particular common usage in respect of appeals to governments for changes in law.
However asking God for the grace to resist temptation, and asking him for a new bike are not very similar at all. Oliver Low (talk) 15:57, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
