SALAH




Assalamu’alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu ♥

I don’t like ambush interviews, so read what I write.

Blistering hot subjects are in hand. So let me cover your hearts up and blow icing glows of crystal flame on your eyes. Let me bleach you with sufficient and exact words that I might cleanse your hearts and mind with pure honesty.

I made this very concise, so don’t hurt your eyes.
I talk about SALAH. READ with me.

Salah (namaz / prayer) is known as the second pillar of Islam, it is the very foundation of a Muslim’s love for Allah(SWT). It is a shield from all the worldly pleasures that are present in our surroundings. Salah provides us a time to be solely with our creator, a time where we could communicate with Him and feel his presence.

The importance of Salah is like the bones in our bodies, without it we would not be able to walk or sit or do anything, because there is lack of foundation. Salah is there to strengthen our IMAN(faith) and purify our soul. Thus, it is obligatory for every Muslim to perform salah (5 times a day).

Allah (SWT) said:"I have not created the jinn and humankind for any other purpose except that they should worship Me." (Noble Qur'an 51:56)

Hadiths regarding the importance of Salah:

"Almighty Allah (SWT) has set the light of my eyes in Salah (Salat, Namaz) and made it the most desirable thing for me, like the food for the hungry and the water for the thirsty. The hungry is contented after the meal and the thirsty is satisfied after drinking water. But my thirst for Salah (Salat, Namaz) is never quenched."
-Holy Prophet Mohammad (SAW)

"The thing that Allah (SWT) loves most is when his people pray Salah on time."
-Holy Prophet Mohammad (SAW)

"When it is time for Salah (Salat, Namaz), perform your prayers; you never know what will happen afterwards ... Nothing is dearer to Almighty Allah than Salah (Salat, Namaz). Worldly affairs must not detract you from the prayer timings. Do not delay your prayers (from the prescribed timings) for no reason. Always perform your Salah (Salat, Namaz) on its best time."
-Imam Ali bin Moosa Al Ridha (pbuh)

So, what’s the harm of setting aside 15 minutes of your time to perform your Salah and be with him, Allah(SWT) doesn’t ask so much from us, it is us who never gets quenched. He created us for a purpose, and that is for us to worship him. There is no excuse to miss a single Salah (unless you are a girl). Allah(SWT) is all forgiving, most merciful. So go do your Wudu and pray to him. It’s not too late. He loves us…so much.
