When I make my intention for salah I don’t pronounce it by mouth which I know is wrong but I say in my heart “two rakah for fajr” and when I say Allahu Akbar something tells me that I didn’t do my intention properly or I didn’t say Allahu Akbar properly Then I start again and again.So can you clarify about the intention. Do I have to actually say it in my heart for example “2 rakah for fajr” or “3 rakah for magrib”. I know this is satans whisper what do i do sheikh. Some times it takes me 10 or even more to start the prayer. Please advise and clarify these for me.

You are in great danger.

This is Satan’s whispering and he is playing with you.

Intention is done in the heart. When you want to eat an apple in front of you, you simply intend it without saying in your mind “I want to eat this apple”. Therefore, you should not listen to Satan as he is not advising you but rather trying to destroy your life.

Do not repeat Takbeer or your prayer and only do it once.

Plz tell us what should we recite in tashahud instead of “… As Salaamu ‘alaika ayuhann Nabiyu…” & why?

I’ve only recently realized that I`ve been pronouncing the word Attahiyat as Attahiaat (just in case u cant make out the difference, I havent been pronouncing the Ya properly) on hearing there hardly seems to be a difference
