Pray regularly . Stand up with devotion for Allah while performing these prayers . Read passages from Qur'an regularly .

This hadith highlights the importance of prayer in Islam. It is narrated by Abu Yunus, the freed slave of 'Aishah who was commanded by her to write a passage from the Quran. When he reached a certain verse which reads "Be guardian of your prayers and of the midmost prayer" she asked him to add more words which were "Be guardians of your prayers, and of the midmost prayer, and of the 'Asr prayer, and stand up with devotion for Allah". This shows that not only should we be mindful about our obligatory prayers but also about other voluntary ones such as Salatul Wusta and Salatul Asr. Furthermore it emphasizes on standing up with devotion for Allah while performing these prayers as an act worship towards Him.
