Mankind's share of this name, to respond when we are called upon,  is described in the Qur'ân (2:186):

When my servants ask thee concerning Me I am indeed close (to them); I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me; let them also with a will listen to My call and believe in Me; that they may walk in the right way.
