What are you thinking in your prayer?

Prayer, every religion has their own way to worship their god. Diverse way to get nearer with their god. The same goes with us, Allah showed and guide us the best way to show our demostrating the slavery towards him, to worship him. It is solah.Let me ask you a question, what were you thinking when you were performing your prayer? In order to perform the best prayer in showing our values of sel-sacrifice, what should we really do when performing solah?



"I'm hungry", " Oh no i forgot to finish the laundry", "yeah, can't wait to play football this evening!" These might be your thoughts when performing solah. How do you want to gain fully focus or khusyuk in your prayer?

So this is what you can try,

1. Seek for understanding in every ayat that you recite, not too focus for the ayat but just know what is the meaning and perform it naturally.

2. Point to the centre of your focus. Try not to think any hocus pocus and chaosity of your surrounding but just focus to seek  for pleasure towards Him.

3. Feel the raja' for Allah. Feel the hopes that you really need Him and you can't stand alone and as the weakest creatures you should seek forgiveness with full of hopes and the most humble level in you.


“Guard strictly your (habit of) prayers, especially the Middle Prayer; and stand before Allah in a devout (frame of mind) (283). If ye fear (an enemy), pray on foot, or riding, (as may be most convenient), but when ye are in security, celebrate Allah’s praises in the manner He has taught you, which ye knew not (before). (239)”


May this post helps you to find your inner peace in performing solah. Nobody said it was easy,but once you get it, nobody could say it was such a heaven feeling performing solah with all your heart and not in rush. Ameen.

GOOD COMPANION TO YOU

Image
Assalamualaikum my peace seeker, Great companions are the individuals who share with their sidekicks both bliss and bitterness. In the event that we share our emotions with the wrongdoers, whose activities are useless and in light of defilement, at that point we are following an indistinguishable ways and measures from what they did, and we will wind up being as degenerate as they may be.  In the end, we are stuck in an unfortunate situation, how might we confront Allah's (SWT) disappointment and dismay? Rather than making companions with the complicated ones, we ought to get to know the exemplary, yet treat the rest in a thoughtful and just way. Remaining at adequate separation is fundamental; yet treating everyone in an honorable and kind way is required. How do we choose our friend or our companion in Islam philosophy? 1. Try not to get to know a liar (Kadhib). For a liar resembles a delusion. He demonstrates the far off as close and the close as rem...

LA TAHZAN

Assalamualaikum and good morning to all my beautiful readers. May Allah bless all of us today, tomorrow and forever. This time i would tell this one story. Well it started from last week that one of my friends seems not she really is , okay don't get me wrong, I mean she seems gloomy, not as happy as she used to be. Then, came this one day, we finally had time to talk about ourselves after we past few packed hectic weeks. "Why am i feeling bad feeling since last week?" She asked. After a long thought well this is gonna be the answer for you :) How to calm ourselves from having this bad feeling, empty, alone or agitated. I would say first thing first, husnudzan towards Allah. What is husnudzan? HUSNUDZAN is a word from Arabic which means "good" or kindthought. Having kindthoughts towards Him will make you calmer.  From Hadits Qudsi Allah Ta’ala berfirman dalam hadits qudsi ‘Aku (tergantung) persangkaan hamba-Ku kepada-Ku’. Apakah hal ini berarti bahwa...

The chosen one

Image
Assalamualaikum love, Who do you think the chosen one is? Who would be the chosen one if it wasn't the Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. That one fine day, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was given a bunch of grape from an old man as a gift. He started to eat it one, then two, three and eventually all of it. The poor man was very glad thua he left. The bunch of grapes were finished by him. Then, there one of the companions asked "O' Muhammad, why did you ate all of it without offering us some of the grapes?". He then replied with a smile and said "the grape is sour, so i thought if all of you taste it, you might make funny faces and would probably hurt the old man's heart. It's better for me to eat the grapes alone." What Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did was very gracious and he really owns a noble beautiful manner. He is one of the kind, the choosen one. All of his good deeds should be implemented and practice by his ummah. Say: "If you love ...
