Tips On How To Concentrate During Salat (prayers) by dominique(f): 6:10pm On Mar 05, 2013 |
1. Before standing up for Prayer, try to deal with all the minor urgent matters which demand your attention. If you are pressed by hunger, eat first; if you are pressed to attend to the call of nature, relieve yourself; if you are the parent of an infant, feed him or her, or keep him or her busy. 2. Perform your wudu’ (ablution) well, paying due care and attention. 3. Approach the Prayer with zest and passion as if it is the last prayer in your life before dying. Actually the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught us that we could do nothing in this world that could ever surpass Prayer in merit and excellence. 4. Visualize that in your Prayer you are going to have a special audience with Allah, Lord of the worlds, and that you are enjoying a direct communion with Him—which, in fact, is true. 5. Think of the Prayer you are performing as if it were the last Prayer of your life. In fact, it could very well be the last one, since no one is given a guarantee that he would live to perform another Prayer. 6. Picture the scene of the Last Day when people will be lined up into two groups, one destined for Heaven, and another for Hell, and ask yourself where you would be placed. 7. Focus your mind on what you are reading in your Prayer and recite simple surah that you understand it's meaning and ponder on the meaning whiles u recite. 8. If, in spite of your best efforts, your mind is still wandering, seek refuge in Allah and bring your mind back to Prayer. 9. Pray to Allah and beg Him to grant you true the joy of concentrating in your Prayer and protection against the wanderings of your mind. 10. Place your eyesight to the one spot where you will be making your sujud while you recite and avoid taking your eyes from that spot. Lack of concentration during solat is one of my greatest weaknesses (esp during congregational prayers and the imam is reciting a long Surah). I've continously prayed about it and always seek refuge from shaitan when my mind begins to wander. May Allah protect us from the tricks of shaitan during prayers and forgive us our mistakes. 98 Likes |

Amin. I tell you sis, its not easy, may Allah SWT assist us all amin. i really think points 1,3,4 and 6 would go a long way to help, especially point 1, i think if one gets prepared for solat on time, try to shut off all mundane issues from ones mind, you'll have better concentration. point 7 isn't easy during congregational prayers and sometimes i do get carried away by the style of recitation of the Imam, good or bad. jazakumullahu khayran 3 Likes |

To be sincere, its so hard ....... God help us. I recite fathia and the next surah in a loud manner.. not shouting sha. (Only for Solat dat I have to recide out tho). I also keep asking for forgiveness while praying if ma mind keeps flying about. Tip 1 and 10 works for me too. Inna-llaha-Gafuru-Raheem (Allah is ever-Forgiving, ever-Merciful) 3 Likes |
