Remain patient while waiting for prayer; Remain mindful during your prayers; Pray with intentionality.

This hadith speaks to the importance of patience and waiting for prayer. It teaches us that even when we are not actively praying, we should remain in a state of readiness and anticipation for our prayers. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was known to delay his Isha prayer until late at night, yet he still reminded his companions that they were still in a state of prayer while they waited. This hadith also speaks to the importance of being mindful and aware during our prayers; Anas said he could see the luster from the Prophet's ring while he prayed. We can learn from this hadith that even when we are not actively praying, we should remain mindful and aware so that when it is time to pray, we can do so with full presence and intentionality.
