حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ، وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ ، قَالُوا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ الْقَطَّانُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ أَكْرَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مَرْفُوعًا إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ عِمْرَانَ الْقَطَّانِ ، وَعِمْرَانُ الْقَطَّانُ هُوَ ابْنُ دَاوَرَ وَيُكْنَى أَبَا الْعَوَّامِ .
´Abu Hurairah narrated that:` The Prophet said: “There is nothing more honorable with Allah [Most High] than supplication.”
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ الْقَطَّانِ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ .
‘Abdur Rahman bin Mahdi narrated from Imran al-Qattan in the same way with the same chain of narration.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
Explanation:
1:
Because when a servant supplicates before the Lord of all worlds, he expresses his utmost helplessness, humility, and neediness in the face of Allah’s power and might. Therefore, in the sight of Allah, there is nothing more honorable and noble (in terms of worship) than supplication (du'a).

➋ Through supplication (du‘a), honor and elevation are attained in the sight of Allah.
➌ A high status with Allah is also achieved through other deeds, but even with those, supplications (du‘a) are still needed.
➍ Supplication (du‘a) is made to Allah for the acceptance of deeds; for this reason as well, supplication holds importance.
