Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Encouraging supplicating to AllahAllah commands His servants to supplicate to Him, for this will ensure their welfare in this life and the Hereafter. Allah said,ادْعُواْ رَبَّكُمْ تَضَرُّعًا وَخُفْيَةً(Invoke your Lord Tadarru`an and Khufyah) meaning, in humbleness and humility.
