Pray regularly with sincerity and devotion towards Allah SWT alone .

This hadith emphasizes the importance of prayer in Islam. It was narrated by 'Ubaid-Ullah bin Adi bin Khiyar who went to 'Uthman bin Affan while he was besieged. He asked him what to do when they were led in prayer by a leader of trials and afflictions as they were afraid of being sinful in following him. Uthman replied that prayers are the best deeds so when people do good deeds one should follow them but if they do bad deeds then one should avoid them. Az-Zuhri added that one should not offer prayers behind an effeminate person unless there is no alternative. This hadith teaches us that we must always strive to perform our prayers with utmost sincerity as it is a great deed which will be rewarded by Allah SWT on the Day of Judgment. We must also be mindful not to follow any wrongdoings or sins even if it means going against those around us who are doing such things as this could lead us astray from our faith and bring about punishment from Allah SWT instead of His mercy and blessings upon us for performing good deeds like praying regularly with sincerity and devotion towards Him alone.
