while standing – focus your attention near the area of sajdah. do not care about them distractions/waswasas and pay attention to the meanings of the words.

Qir’at – keeping the meanings in mind, recite the Holy Qur’an with extreme reverence(adab) , humbleness ,clearly  and with fear . to recite it in such a way that the reciter can hear it.

 In ruku – praise Allah with humility. When  begins to rise back into a standing position he should be aware that Allah hears the supplication “Allah hears those who praise Him” (Sami-Allahu liman hamidah). straighten the back horizontally to the ground with the head in line, and the fingers holding the knees must be spread apart. focus your attention between your feet while in ruku.

while prostration (sajda)- require a person to feel close to Allah. nose and forehead  must touch the ground. Let the feet be firmly grounded . focus your attention on the bridge of the nose during Sajdah.

Tashhud or witnessing is assertion of complete faith and love for Allah. focus your attention on the lap in Jalsah. While conveying salam on rasoolallah (saws) and on saleheen make sure its with love and adab .making the profession of faith/shahadah with concentration. reciting darood e Ibrahim with love and adab. yearning for the acceptance of dua .

Salaam or ending salutation of the prayer is turning away from worldly attractions towards Allah. focus your attention on the  shoulders when making Salaam.

Hope that Allah will accept the ibadah by His mercy, and fear that it may reject it because of the shortcomings of my deeds.

 

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
