The questioner:
What? The chapter on dhikr and du'a'.
The Shaykh:
Du'a' is not part of dhikr. However, the topics of du'a' are a matter, and dhikr is a form of worship. Dhikr falls under the category of du'a' of worship, while absolute du'a' means any request, such as "O Allah, forgive me" or "O Allah, have mercy on me."
