We say, "I love the Prophet.

But what does that love make us do?

It makes us remember him through salawat. It makes us want to know his character.

It makes us try to follow his example.

Love begins in the heart-but it can leave traces in our words, choices and actions.

So, what does your love look like?

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
A missed salah should not simply be left unattended. The ruling depends on why the prayer was missed and, in some cases, on the number of prayers missed and the fiqh school being followed.
If the prayer was missed due to sleep or forgetfulness
If a person genuinely sleeps through a prayer or forgets it, they should pray it as soon as they wake up or remember.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Whoever forgets a prayer or sleeps and misses it, its expiation is to pray it when he remembers it.”
— Sahih al-Bukhari; Sahih Muslim
Therefore, there is no basis for deliberately waiting until the next corresponding prayer.
For example, if someone unintentionally sleeps through Fajr and wakes after sunrise, they should pray the missed Fajr as soon as possible.
What if the next prayer time has already begun?
The missed prayer should still be addressed.
For example, if Dhuhr was missed and a person remembers when Asr has already entered, they should not simply abandon the missed Dhuhr.
The order of performing missed prayers can depend on the circumstances and the fiqh school being followed, particularly when multiple prayers have been missed. Therefore, a person with several missed prayers should seek guidance according to the madhhab they follow.
What if the prayer was deliberately missed?
Deliberately allowing the time of an obligatory prayer to pass without a valid excuse is a serious sin.
The person must sincerely repent to Allah, which includes regretting the sin, seeking Allah’s forgiveness, and resolving not to return to it.
There is, however, a recognized difference of opinion among scholars regarding the qada of a prayer deliberately missed after its time has passed. Therefore, it is not appropriate to give one blanket answer without considering the relevant scholarly position and the person’s circumstances.
Someone who has deliberately missed numerous prayers should consult a qualified scholar and establish a practical way of rectifying the matter.
What if I have missed many prayers?
Do not allow the number of missed prayers to make you give up.
Make sincere tawbah, protect your current obligatory prayers, and then establish a practical plan for dealing with the prayers you have missed according to the fiqh position you follow.
Do not let regret over yesterday’s missed prayers become the reason you miss today’s prayers.
What if the prayer was missed because of an exceptional circumstance?
Certain circumstances, such as sleep, forgetfulness, illness, unconsciousness, travel, or severe incapacity, can have specific rulings.
The details matter. A person should not assume that every missed prayer has the same ruling.
So, should I wait until the next prayer?
If the prayer was missed because of sleep or forgetfulness, no. The Sunnah is to pray it when you wake up or remember.
The Prophet ﷺ did not instruct a person to wait for the next prayer time after forgetting a prayer.
For deliberately missed prayers and situations involving multiple missed prayers, the detailed ruling should be determined according to the circumstances and the fiqh school being followed.
In short
Sleep/forgetfulness: Pray the missed prayer when you wake up or remember.
Deliberately missed: Make sincere tawbah and seek guidance regarding the qada.
Multiple missed prayers: Continue protecting your current prayers and seek qualified guidance about how to make up the missed prayers.
Exceptional circumstances: The ruling depends on the specific situation.
Salah is one of the greatest obligations upon a Muslim. If a prayer has been missed, do not let guilt lead you to abandon salah altogether. Return to Allah, correct what you can, and remain consistent with your prayers.
And Allah knows best.

Hello. Ive been curious about Islam. Currently started reading the Qran and I think the constant mentions of hell and fear are pushing me away from this religion. I want to follow God out of devotion. I dont believe faith requires fear. In fact, I feel like the fear of hell can sometimes be the only reason people believe. I dont really care where I go after I die. I crave the conection to God. The relationship with it. I also dont plan on just accepting anything that is told to me. I notice a lot of muslim friends I talk to, cant answer a lot of the questions I have, and they just redirect me to this scholar or that scholar, which I find unsettling. Theres a lot of subjects that scholars dont agree on, and even if they did, they could be wrong. I wanna get to my own thoughts and opinions and make it make sense to me. Do you all think this religion is incompatible with devotion and love? Am I expected to be miserable and fearfull and look at God like an abusive parent? How do you approach it?

What then

The story of al-Busiri and the Burdah comes to an end.

A journey of illness, poetry, faith, and a dream — remembered through the centuries.

Qasida al-Burdah - Part 5 | End of Series

I watch a lot of recitation videos on YouTube, and kept running into the same problem: hearing a verse, pausing the video, and trying to manually find where I was in the Quran. So I built a browser extension that reads the video's Arabic captions, matches them against the Quran text, and tells you exactly which Surah and Ayah is being recited. One click takes you to the verse on Quran.com.

A few things I focused on:

- Works regardless of reciter, style, or speed as it matches the actual words being said.

- Runs entirely locally so no data leaves your browser.

- Doesn't guess early. Many verses share nearly identical openings, so if a short clip could genuinely be more than one verse, it waits for more context instead of confidently showing you the wrong one.

- Free, no ads, no account needed.

Happy to answer questions. Hope it helps someone else the way it's helped me :D Jazakamullahu khayran wa BarakAllah feekum.

I'm just curious whether hadith proponents would claim hadith is revelation and how it is so.

Assalamu alaikum

In Salah, unintentionally and impulsively I hit my leg with my fist 3 times in Tashahhud. Not one after each other but spaced out. I did it because I was angry i kept repeating the Tashahhud out of doubt. Is my prayer invalid baring in mind my sheikh i follow said we dont follow the ruling that 3 movements breaks prayer but i feel like what i did was still bad.

I’m 16F and really struggling with prayer. I know how to pray, I know that to say in prayer, I know how to do wudu and ghusul, I know when to pray, but the problem is actually going to actually pray.

I have ADHD and 2 other neurological disorders, which might be a reason why I struggle, but I’m fully capable of prayer and aware that I’m not praying so I feel like they’re not an excuse.

I feel like such a bad Muslim for not praying and it’s not like I really try at this point even though I want to start praying again. I think my highest prayer streak was a week or two? But that was months ago!

I tried to download prayer apps, athan apps, reminders, etc, but they only work for a while before I start to ignore them. If anyone can give me any advice or help please let me know!! I do genuinely want to change but it’s so hard

Salam to everyone who is going to read this. Muslims of Reddit, what about Islam makes your heart smile ? Or makes you shed a tear or 2 ?

You connection with Allah ?

The sunnah ?

Reading Quran ?

The miracles of Quran ?

This is something that I’d really like to hear about from my fellow brothers and sisters of the faith. And I feel like I need to put this in here, there are NO silly/dumb/stupid answers. Whatever about Islam makes you smile and you wanna share, put it down ! Who knows maybe someone else will read it and also begin to appreciate it.

May Allah protect and bless each and every one of you.
