Salam all. I am wondering how to deal with this and wonder if it’s a lack of spirituality or something else. I have been waking up for fajr every day this year, and suddenly I don’t feel like it anymore. I still pray when I do wake up, so it’s not a feel about not praying at all. But I wonder why I got so into the habit and now all of a sudden im feel like I’m slipping

W aalaykom Salam thank you for sharing!! I was in a similar situation and then I heard a lecture where someone said “ Worhsip God cause he’s worthy of worship & don’t worship the feeling” - as a lot of us (myself included) may have prayed to feel good/peaceful, so we sometimes focus on the feeling rather than giving Allah SWT his rights

Thank you BA1, this is true that we were fashioned to worship Allah SWT.

Knowing what each ayah means influences motivation and being present during prayers. If it's a knowledge gap, that's really easy to close.

Have you been working much longer hours lately?

Not really. Nothing too much out of the ordinary.

Could be jinn or bad energy in your orbit. Read labol and ayat ul kursi.

I would imagine that no more than 20-25% of Muslims actually pray fajr. You’re fine fam.

Hi, been stuck in the contract analysis/review cycle. I have asked a few recruiters how to make a lateral move into in-house.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)

Salam. 23M here - all my life I’ve had my back on our faith - never really prayed but had imaan (I guess). After bouts of depression from girl problems (🙄), issues within immediate family, being disappointed expectations I had for myself, etc. I’ve been working on bettering my situation over the years. Faith is the only area where I think I need more guidance. Having trouble relating to friends or family about this. Anyone else been thru something similar? How have you connected back to Islam?
