Unlocking the Prayer

We all know the importance of Salah in our lives. However, we often lack a deep and spiritual connection to the prayer. Our minds wander, we get distracted by the million other things going on. How can we focus and build this concept of khushoo’ in our prayer?

This course will try to tackle this topic. We will cover:

1. Understanding the concept of khushoo’
2. Learning the meanings of the words recited in Salah
3. Delving into the deeper nuances of each action in Salah
4. Learning how to dispel distractions and unncessary thoughts in Salah
5. Working on creating an environment of Salah at home

and much more

This course will be based on the famous work of Imam Abu Sa’id al-Khadimi – al-Risala al-Khushu’iyah (a treatise on humility).

Delivered by our very own Br Yusuf Tariq
