Prayer

There are two times for Asr; preferred time and this is from athan of Asr until the sun becomes yellow and one can look at it. The second time is a time of necessity and this is not recommended and it is from the time the sun becomes yellow till it sets!

What is the ruling regarding sending salutation upon the Prophet (saw) when the khateeb says ‘Muhammad (saw)’ during the Friday khutbah? Should I say it aloud too as I would normally or should I remain quiet and say it in my heart?

You should say it quietly in your heart.

Please convince me I’m going to Jannah. Please, give me some encouragement. I’m a very emotional man and I deeply care about what Allah thinks of me. It’s just that when I pray, nothing happens. I know you told me what to do but it’s not easy. Before, I barely knew what I said in Salah, and I didn’t know much of ALLAH’s name but I had better khushoo months ago than I do now. Currently, I know what I say in Salah but it feels like that decreased my khushoo. You told me to pray more Salah to make up for short comings in Fard Salah. But if I were to try my hardest in concentration, my Salah would only be 80%. At BEST – Which is rarely the case. Plus, my heart doesn’t incline to Salah so I have to force myself to have khushoo which is hard. I feel jealous of others who WANT to pray.. Unlike me. I’ve made plenty dua for khushoo.

Iman increases with good deeds and decreases with sins! Therefore, what you are suffering from is normal and life is a continuous test! You must struggle and fight to attain Khushu. Some of the Salaf scholars said: I struggled with prayer for 20 years and then enjoyed it for another 20 years!

No, you should not pray as there isn’t any legitimate reason for doing So and there is no prescribed sunnah before Asr!

Is salatul awabeen authentic sunnah? Wat time it has to be offered?

If you are referring to Duha prayer, this is an authetic sunnah! But the prayer between Maghreb and Isha is not authentic!

I’m going NUTS!? Look, I keep hearing how Salah must be perfect and if its not complete, your other deeds won’t benefit. This is making me almost cry. Every time I stand up and say Allahu Akbar, I don’t have khushoo. People say Allah is merciful but at the same time, I read that Hadith about Salah and it makes me wanna cry. I do other deeds and sacrifices. What am I supposed to do? Will I get punished for my Salah? I read despairing in Allahs mercy is also a MAJOR SIN.. I do this many times which only adds to more depression. I suck man.

No one has perfect khushoo! That is why Allah instructed us to offer more voluntary prayers to compensate for whatever was missing in our fard prayers. Don’t give up and keep on trying and keep on offering voluntary prayers.
