Even a small fly can distract us during Salah. 

But when it came to Umar (RA) even a deadly poisoned knife wasn’t able to spoil his unwavering commitment.

The resilience shown by the Imam, who continued leading the Salah despite being gravely injured…

…serves as a reminder of the Khushu we seem to have lost.

Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) talks about Salah not just being a ritualistic worship but a fundamental pillar upon which our faith stands.

It’s not just a routine but a transformative experience.

It’s a sacred dialogue with Allah. 

Through Salah, we build a spiritual fortress that shields us from the pitfalls of sin and guides us toward righteousness.

As we pray heavily during these last 10 nights of Ramadan, let us heed the words of Allah and His Messenger (PBUH)…

Recognizing Salah as a beacon of guidance in our lives. 

May our prayers serve as a source of strength, drawing us closer to Allah (swt).
