How to Gain Tranquility in Your Prayer

We are quick to say we've submitted to the will of Allah

, but does our heart completely back our words? Have we submitted ourselves, or found "khushoo" in our prayer, our actions and our daily lives?

"Successful indeed are the believers, those who offer their salaah (prayers) with all solemnity and full submissiveness (Khushoo)." [Surah Al-Muminoon 23:1-2]

Definition of Khushoo

The reasons why we obey someone can be broadly traced under the following categories.

Fear
Recognition of superiority or authority
Acknowledging the orders as just
Love

Seven Reasons to Perform Hajj While Young

"The feet of man will not slip on the Day of Resurrection until he is asked of five things: of his life as to how he spent it, his youth as to how he used it, his wealth as to where he got it and how he spent it, and of his knowledge as to what he did with it." (Tirmithi)

"That they may witness benefits for themselves..." (Qur'an, 22:28)

From a young age, many of us dream of going to Hajj - to see the Ka`bah in person, the Station of Ibrahim, drink ZamZam, perform tawaaf (circling the Ka`bah), wear the white garments of Hajj, and be with brothers and sisters from around the world in the greatest international gathering in the history of humanity. It is a rare opportunity for forgiveness, for change, for turning to the Creator, and for Paradise, insha'Allah.
