Wa alaikum Salam,
You can combine the noon and afternoon prayers during your lunch break or pray after your work depending on the month. During winder sunsets early so you may like to combine the prayers of Zuhr and Asr and during the summer you can pray after your work combining them. Aslam

Salam everyone, thank you for all your replies. I haven’t been able to pray yet, but I feel like I am progressing. I have completely cut off all my friends with whom I felt peer pressure to do bad things. I have given up drugs, alcohol and other gravely prohibited acts in Islam. I have gotten engaged to a woman of my parents choice, now the only thing remaining for me is to start praying.
One of my concern is I work 5 days a week from 8:30am to 5pm, and I am not allowed to go offer my prayers in between work, I don’t have enough breaks throughout the day to do so, what alternative way can I perform the missed prayers?

Hi handsofallah,
It's not just you even the toughest of muslims sometimes make mistakes the good thing is you know your mistake and willing to correct it. it's not going to be easy task but Allah will make it easy for you In shaa Allah if only you keep on trying and not quit no matter what. Why don't you start with something small listen and read Quran once every day not just the arabic but i understand what Allah is saying in that Surah In shaa Allah you'll start to feel peaceful and do watch islamic videos from channel called merciful servant. once you keep reminding yourself of Allah you'll be able to leave all negativities behind you.

Selam brother, You regret what you�ve done, so ask forgivness from Allah. Allah knows best for us. Beside try to pray 5 times because it makes you feel more close Allah. I born into Muslim family but they didn�t teach sth well. When I start to pray 5 times and learn love of Allah, I became better. So I suggest you to feel love of Allah because we don�t wanna disappoint him. Besides you should find good friends who can help you with that. Insallah you�ll find your way. Allah always with us

Raza welcome! I suggest you begin taking practical steps to change your situation, such as curtailing drug and alcohol usage, both of which are highly addictive. Are you in college? If so, leave off having a good time with friends and concentrate on your studies. Do not despair of Allah's Mercy because this is a trap from Satan to make us feel resigned to his fate - you are not.

There is a hadith that mention like this (not exactly):
The companion asked : "if commit sin and ask fogiveness, will Allah forgive me" The Prophet SAW replied: "Yes" The companion asked again : "if commit sin the second time and ask fogiveness again, will Allah forgive me" The Prophet SAW replied: "Yes" The companion asked again : "if commit sin the 3rd time and ask fogiveness again, will Allah forgive me" The Prophet SAW replied: "Yes" The companion asked again : "Till when l Allah still forgive me" The Prophet SAW replied: "Allah will frgive you until you give up to ask forgiveness from Allah" The shaitan always whisper you to give up from asking forgiveness from Allah swt. So the windows of forgiveness is always open as long as your soul still on your body. The problem is we don't know when your soul will depart from your body, can be soon. So try your best. Also there is rule in Islam regarding doing good, if you can do all things, don't left the whole things. Let say you can not read Qur'an regularly, try to keep doing 5 daily prayer, fasting ramadan, doing charity etc. Wamayya'mal mitsqaala dzaratin khoira yarrah, wamay-yamal mitsqaala dzaratin syharay-yarah. Big or small, good or bad Allah will count it. And if it's bad Allah's forgiveness is always open. Edited by semar - 27 October 2017 at 7:55pm |

That is where I require some help, how do I do it without failing, because so far in my life I've repented so many times and gotten to the right path but unfortunately I keep ending up going toward the wrong path again and again. I feel like constantly repenting and then doing sins again is useless. |
