Start your recitations with a prayer praising Allah .

This hadith speaks of the importance of praising and thanking Allah in prayer. It was narrated by Anas ibn Malik that the Prophet Muhammad, Abu Bakr, and Umar would begin their recitations with a prayer of praise to Allah. This shows us how important it is to thank God for all that He has given us before we ask Him for anything else. We should also remember that our prayers are not just about asking God for things; they are also about expressing our gratitude for His blessings. By starting our prayers with words of praise and thanksgiving, we can show our appreciation for all that He has done for us.

This hadith also teaches us the importance of humility when praying to God. Even though the Prophet Muhammad was one of the most important people in history, he still humbled himself before God by beginning his prayers with words of praise and thanksgiving instead of asking directly for what he wanted or needed from Him. We should follow this example by humbling ourselves before God when we pray so that He may grant us whatever it is we seek from Him.
