Salat Ashra

We have entered another Ashra Salat (August 1 – August 10). During these ten days, we should pay special attention towards our daily Prayers and understand its significance. Moreover, we need to make efforts to also include and invite our friends and family towards Prayer and make sure that our mosques, Salat centers—and where they both are not available then our houses are filled with Prayers and its blessings. We should always remember that the Promised Messiah (may peace be on him) has said that even if your entire house is ruined, let it be so, but never discard Prayer.

“The Promised Messiah (may peace be on him) has advised us:

"Observe Prayer services regularly. Some people content themselves with one Prayer service daily but they must remember that no one is exempt from them, nor even the prophets. It is narrated in a Hadith that a company of men who had just accepted Islam requested the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may peace and blessings of Allah be on him) to be exempted from the Salat. He observed: A religion that does not demand action is no religion at all." (Malfuzat, vol. 1, page 263)

May Allah enable us to safeguard our Prayers and bring about positive change in our lives, Ameen.
