Assalamu alaikum,

I wanted to know what Muslims thought about this issue and whether or not there is unanimity about the relationship between dua and qadr.

Does Allah respond to people’s supplications and gives them what they ask for or is dua a form or worship just like any other form of worship? Can a dua that's accepted bring tangible results in reality?

Example: You walk out after completing an exam. Provided that Allah accepts your dua, will making dua help your marks after you've already written the exam? i.e. is dua produce an effect?

JazakoumAllah khayr.
