Salaam alaykum,

As we come close to the end of the Year 1434A.H, today marks the Last Friday of the year.

Let's say Alhamdulilah for the gift of Life, sound health,sustenance et al.

It's time to write new goals, review our progress and refocus our energy towards living the best out of life while adhering to the tenets of Islam with hope to gain the Mercy of Allah(SWT).

One of my new year resolution is to stop lateness to Salaat and review this everyday before I sleep.

Can you share some of your new Year resolutions?

My new year resolution is to put my salat above any other thing, that is, saying them at their appropriate time and also creating ten minutes for Dhikr afta every salat, instead of hurrying away as usual. Regular Tahajjud also.

I agree with you.

May Allah make it easy for you my sister.

Abdullah bin Shaqiq (RA) said, “I asked Aisha (RA) about nawafil (voluntary) prayers of Allah’s Messenger (PBUH) & she replied : before Zuhr, he used to pray 4 raka’at in his house, then go out to lead people in prayer, then come in & pray 2 raka’at. He would lead people in Maghrib prayer, then come in & pray 2 raka’at. Then he would lead people in Isha’ prayer and enter my house & pray 2 raka’at. He would pray 9 raka’at during night, including Witr. At night he would pray for a long time standing and for a long time sitting; and when he recited the Qur’an while standing, he would bow & prostrate himself from standing position. And when he recited while sitting, he would bow & prostrate himself from sitting position. And when it was dawn (Fajr), he would pray 2 raka’at.”
