Alhamdullilah, yes.
I just wish I could also say that they are all performed with the sincerity that they should be when praying to Allah subhanahu wa taala.

Salam.
 
Allahamdillah i pray 5 times a day , but i need to gain more concentation , i do get angry because if im at work or even when im typing this i am concentrating with ease , so why cant i only concentrate for 10 -15 mins praying to Allah swt.It is hard. when i feel my imaan is down i pray at home , i have 10 mins to go to maghrib , i voice is telling me to chill and read at home , its freezing outside, but inshallah im going to the mosque ,salam pps.
 
Assalam-o-Allikum
i am a new muslim and it was my hubby and his 7 wonderfull sisters mashaAllah who taught me how to recite and do namaz,
i try with sincere intention to do all 5 namaz, however not all the time can i complete 5 - due to travel, sickness, etc and i do pray forgiveness for the ones which i have missed and also fear the final day of what the judgement will be.
it took me around 6 months to learn namaz from heart and inshaAllah i can continue with good faith
Peace and Blessing

Ma'assalama

Do you pray 5 times a day?

Yes, I did but I've been quite streast recently and had a cold so I've let quite a few slip. I also have to let the middle prayer go on 1 day a week at the moment as it's right in the middle of a lesson.

Do I pray at the fixed times?

No. I forget the Dawn prayer so I pray at a Sunrise instead. I prayer early or late when I'm at college because I have to pray in my breaks. When I'm at home, I pray on time most days.

Do I pray in a Mosque?

No as it's an hours drive away from me and it mad to park there, so I pray at home or in the prayer room at college.
 
Alhamdulillah 5 times a day. 3 at the mosque, zuhr and asr at work. Although I'm a muslima, I can concentrate better at the mosque, may be because of the effort that has to be made in the preparation to do solah like, cleansing, ablution, attire well before prayer time.

For those still studying or busy at work, I learnt from example set by my sisters' best friend. She was studying in UK, sitting for final year exam and one paper after another. The exam times coincide with prayer time. So she did her 2.5 hour exam in only 1.5 hours to be able to complete her prayer. I also learn from example set by Arabs families in Sydney, when I see them praying in the park, at the train station, anywhere because mosques are very, very far apart. Some people scorn, some people smirk, but there is no excuse for not doing the 5 fard' if you know how to do it except if you are asleep, forgotten, lost your mind, dead and for ladies, that time of the month of course. So no matter how busy or difficult the situation, if you can make excuse to go to toilet, you can leave the room to perform solah.

If im right, Blackcatrain is a nasty little Tr0ll from another board I used to go on. Its like being stalked!
No, I dont pray 5 times a day.
Id like to, and it does bother me, but Im not really sure how to go about it at work. I cant put my feet in the sink for Wudhu.
I was considering taking a bottle with me, so I can pour water over my feet inside a cubicle, but Im not sure that that is permissible.
My boss knows Im muslim, and shes flexible about me just wandering off for a break when I run out of work, Alhamdulillah, so it shouldnt be a problem for me to pray out the back somewhere.
Insha Allah, once Ive moveddown to somerset, and gotten my own flat, itll be easier to practice since it wont matter if my parents are unhappy about me reversion. At least, the wont be able to make me homeless anyway.
How do other people pray at work?
And do any sisters know anywhere that has navy of burgundy hijabs in stock, as im not allowed to wear hijab to work if its not navy burgundy, and I have not been able to find any anywhere.
 
yep i defidentally do...and i remember when i started... about 3 or 4 years ago...no im not a convert..and speaking of which, i gotta go pray the isha now. brb.
 
:sl: I was forced to pray in dugsi when I was like 7-11 years old, and I really had no idea what I was doing until I turned 15. I don't know, something came over me and I had this sudden want, need and thirst for the deen subhanAllah. So I learned how to pray (with the assistance of a book) and I prayed every single prayer. I read the English translation of the Quran in full, and I finished it in English. Now I'm starting my way from scratch, and I completely understand what the surahs mean. For a year I stopped praying subhanAllah and when I came back to the deen alhamdulilah I noticed that I was making mistakes in my prayer. Sooooo, I re-learned how you pray and now my focus is being focused on Allah during my prayer. Also, I'm trying to learn a new Surah every week since I basically forgot everything I learned during dugsi. InshaAllah I become a hafizah though. It's really hard though, when you have people around you that are such bad influences, but I try my best to stay away from them. And I seek refuge in Allah Ta'ala only so that the shaydaan stays away from me, and that Allah Ta'ala keeps me safe from harm.
 
MasyaAllah sister,a hafizah. I wish I can memorise that well. Am trying to memorise the Quran almost everyday but my rate is so very slow. InsyaAllah I hope to be able to complete before I die.
BTW what is dugsi?

:sl: JazakAllahu khair sister, dugsi just means quran school in my language.

Astaghfirullah.imsad

May Allah forgive me, and all the Muslim who neglect their Sallah. ameen
 
Peace,
On the authority of the Sole Lawgiver(Allah) I perform the 3 Salah mentioned in the Quran: Fajr, Wusta and Eesha.
