Thats how I feel. I have so much mental stress and they say being mentally stressed is worse than physically ill. Sometimes I feel like I just cannot do it. It's so tough.
one of the purposes of making wuduu is to give your mind time to focus on Allah and seek forgiveness for your sins. take your time, sit and think a few minutes. ask Allah to forgive you for ALL of your sins, even those you don't remember or aren't aware of. try not praying until your mind is clearer and you can focus better on salaat. one of the things i do if i pray outside the of the Masjid is use the underneath of the prayer rug. it freaks people out a little when i do it. i explain that although everyone has some really cool designs on their rugs, i found that i would spend time in prayer thinking how cool the design was. i have that same problem at some of the Masjids with fancy rugs. using a blank space instead offers fewer diversions for your brain and can help to have kushoo. try it.
I just pray without thinking and I'm sure the angels through my Salah back in my face.
of course you feel that way. Angels offer perfect salaah. we can't compare. i heard a lecture, but forget who it was, that is why we say Astargfirullah 3 times when we finish. if you feel the need, when you are done prayer, continue making Istighfar for a few minutes. admit to Allah that your prayer feels substandard, and ask Him to soften your heart, make you more obedient and improve your salaah
That hadeeth which states its an act of disbelief to miss salah does that mean I'm a really bad person like a disbeliever? My friend said her brother told her he would not pray Janazah Salah for one who missed their salah. Don't judge me please. I am religious but I find the prayer really tough.
