Today we shall continue the discussion and examine various Quranic verses which remind us of the need to be God-conscious in prayers. It does appear we have turned everything in prayers to mere symbols and consequently many of us are marking time instead of reaping the benefits and rewards of our prayers. We can see an interplay between believers success and prayer. In fact, one of the conditions for a believer to tarry in paradise is proper observance of prayers in an humble way. Obviously one who rushes and unmindful of his prayers will not recite the Quranic verses and the suplications in bowing and prostration correctly and properly.
Lets look at the timing of salat.
I have seen muslims who are in the habit of combining Zuhr and Asr prayers for no any reasons other than they have no time to leave wordly materials to obey Allah. This is a popular phenomenon among students, especially those who care to pray. Islam, as we all know, is a complete way of life, we cannot obey one aspect of it and reject any other ones. Be reminded that the purpose of our creation is to be Allahs votaries, failure on our part to fulfil this, carries a severe chastisement. Another aspect I would like to touch upon is the way we recite Tasbih after salat.
