The Prophet ﷺ said, “When anyone of you is engaged in the Prayer, he is holding an intimate conversation with his Lord.” [Muslim]
[Imagine] as soon as we say “Allahu Akbar” to commence the prayer, the barrier between us and Allah is lifted. He remains looking at you, facing you, and responding to you when you recite al-Fatiha as long as you are not distracted.
When you say Allahu Akbar, you are throwing away the worries of the world and fleeing to Allah (SWT) who is greater than it all, and is the only One who can remove your distress.
When you go into ruku’, you are demonstrating your humility before Him. And when we go into sujood, it is the closest that we are to Allah (SWT).
How many of us, myself included fail to realize this?
May Allah give us the ability to worship him in the best of ways. Ameen ya Rabb!
