Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite during the two Rak'ah of Fajr prayer: "Say (O Muslims): We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us".. (2:136) which is in Surat Al-Baqarah in the first Rak'ah and the Verse: "We believe in Allah, and bear witness that we are Muslims (ie, we submit to Allah". (3:52) in the second Rak'ah. According to another narration, he ﷺ recited from Surat Al-'Imran the Verses: "Come to a word which is just between us and you".. (3:64). Muslim.
The Prophet's example shows us how important it is for us to take time out of our day for spiritual reflection, even if it is just a few minutes each morning or evening spent in prayer or reading the Quran. We should also strive to make sure that we are actively engaging with what we are reading, so that we can gain insight into its teachings and apply them in our lives today.
