If Allah has a plan, what is the point of Dua?

[Brian37]

Now you may not wish violence on non Muslims, and we are happy with any human who values non violence. Unfortunately even with non violent believers of ANY label, what they, like you, fail to see is that the violent people are picking up the same book you use to justify non violence, to justify violence.

But the same can be said for any religion.
