Really appreciated the way you noted down the strong points that one has to keep in mind always. Another thing that i found which personally works for me is, when i am distracted during prayer, i immediately make it a point to realize that i am distracted, and i say 'Audhu Billahi mina Shaythani Rajeem' and 'Astaghfirullah'. and return to where i was in prayer. It works for me. I make it that way. :) But concentrations do lapse at times. Have to work on it. btw. the links on the translation of the verses is showing an error. Kindly correct it. :) May Allah shower his blessings on you and your crowd. Assalamualaikum,

Your insights were very educational and made me reconsider the latest trends in these areas. If only more writers are as mindful and as passionate about educating everyone relating to these issues as you, we aspiring journalists would not get such a bad rep. Appreciate expressing your self so articulately. You made my day. That was a interesting read|. Your insights were very educational and made me reconsider the latest trends in these areas.

Please also read http://www.heliwave.com/Soul.and.Spirit.pdf for a deeper meaning of what we say: Allah Akbar = God is bigger (not biggest or gretest) but bigger. That is bigger that anything you can imagine even infinity. Just remember how Allah Al-Knowing uses the shortest chapter of the Quran (Al-Kawthar) to talk about the plentiness of the descendents of the Prophet (pbuh+f). Remember Quran 5:55 when you do rakoo3 and how Imam Ali gave his ring to the poor and do so if you can at least once in your life. Remember that when you do sijood and sittting up twice every ruk3a, you are actually emulating life and death twice as per Quran 2:28: كَيْفَ تَكْفُرُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَكُنتُمْ أَمْوَاتاً فَأَحْيَاكُمْ ثُمَّ يُمِيتُكُمْ ثُمَّ يُحْيِيكُمْ ثُمَّ إِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ [Shakir 2:28] How do you deny Allah and you were dead and He gave you life? Again He will cause you to die and again bring you to life, then you shall be brought back to Him. enjoy~ Ali God > infinity Wondrful advice brother and please be sure to recite surat Al-Ikhlaas in at least one ruk3a as a prayer without would be incomplete.
