Continuity in Performing Salat
Hi guys, today’s post I am gonna tell you a little
bit about my problems in praying (salat) and give you some tips to do if you
have the same problems. So, let’s check this out!!
I am a Muslim and my family as well. I grow up in
Indonesia as you know it’s Muslim country. I ever studied in Islamic Junior
High School and now I am in College. When I was in Elementary school I went to
Islamic school at afternoon studying Quran and many Islamic books. So I thought
I had some knowledge about Islam.
But after I schooled in
State Senior High School which is only 2 hour Islamic lesson we got a week, so
I was kind of feeling lack of something (in my soul). I seldom performed salat
because I thought no one knew and it did not affect my daily activity, I still got
good scores in every task, without performing salat I still remember I just
performed salat once a day (subh) because I thought if I did not perform it I
would get something bad for the whole day Astaghfirullah. Then for now, it has
been 22 days after ied Mubarak and I seldom performed salat again although in
ramadhan I tried to perform salat 5 times a day and I have finished reading the
whole Quran.
And then, I remember
Imam said If you wanna know the result whether your effort works or not is in
the end. For example, we are always performing salat, doing sunnah and reading
Quran on ramadhan, but after ramadhan ends, you just leave your duty, all those
things and doing bad things again. It means your effort in performing salat, doing
sunnah etc. is not accepted because you don’t do it purely from your heart.
So, I don’t wanna be
one of those people. Although it is on ramadhan or not. I still try to get
closer and walk in His right path. Salat is the pillar of Islam. Let’s imagine,
if you wanna build a house (in jannah)and you don’t have pillars, how could it
be? Let’s make our best house in Jannah by doing salat. But what should I do?
These are 5 tips for
you, remember it is about continuity and always recharge your soul by doing these.
1. Taking
a bath
It
is not only about bathing as you do every day. Every part of your skin needs to
water. Use shampoo and soap to clean up your body, and the dua before taking a
bath is
2. Performing
salat taubah
It
is 2 rakaat salat that you can perform whenever, especially if you have just
committed a sin. After praying, don’t forget to ask His forgiveness. You may
cry, you may share your sadness, your fear etc. remember, He is the Hearer.
3. Performing
fardh salat
If
that’s the time for you to perform dhuhr, do it! Or that’s for ashr, do it!
Force yourself to perform salat. Read the dua slowly and feel the energy. Try to
focus on your salat. After salat, ask everything you want just to Allah. Allah always
listen to your dua and everything in your heart.
4. Trying
to know the meaning of the dua in praying
One of the reason why you feel lazy and bored of performing salat is you don’t know the meaning. Imagine that you have to do something same 5 times a day in your life! So, to know the meaning is very important. There are many websites translating the dua and containing much Islamic information.
5. Remembering Him in every inch of your life

How
to remember Him? Read Quran or dua in your spare time. Read the meaning and
take the lesson from it. Always do better and try to do what He wants and avoid
what He forbids.
It’s only simple things, but you need to always remember and practice. Hopefully this post can help you to be better and I always wait for your comments below and share this to help the others.
