The Path To Prayer (P/B)

The true believer is constantly conscious and aware of his Lord, striving for acceptance in all that he does and always trying to improve himself and correct any imperfection. Prayer, in particular, deserves this effort, and what better example upon which to pattern oneself than that of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) The Muslim should make a serious effort to pray each prayer at the beginning of its period, as the Prophet (ﷺ) stated that this is the deed most liked by Allah. The additional time is allowed as a mercy from Allah for those who, for some reason, are unable or would find difficulty in doing so. The only compensation for a person who has forgotten or unintentionally slept through a prayer period is that he prays the missed prayer immediately as soon as he remembers.
