“Surely I, Ever I, am Allah; there is no god except I; so worship Me, and Aqimus-Salah (establish prayer) for My remembrance.” (Taha 20: 15)
Moreover, Allah (twt) commands the correct performance of Salah.
Sometimes a believer’s Salah may seem empty of any pleasure or deep
feeling of attachment with Allah, but with Sabr (patience) and
perseverance, he will get the perfume of pleasure in his Salat (prayers).
He may face deep difficulties and not see any issue, he may pray without
putting any real trust in Allah. But what does Allah say?
Allah (twt) states in the Holy Quran: “O you who believe! Seek help in steadfastness and
prayer. Surely Allah is with the steadfast.” (Al-Baqara 2: 154)
The Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) is quoted to have said: “Prayer is a light, charity is proof, and patience is illumination.” (Muslim)
