A Perfect Prayer
A perfect prayer (salah) is one in which the servant prays as though they are standing before Allah alone, stripped of self-importance and distraction. The heart must be empty of everything except Allah—worldly worries, people’s opinions, and inner noise are consciously set aside.
The prayer becomes perfected when a person feels their own weakness and poverty before Allah, while recognizing His greatness, mercy, and nearness. Such a prayer is not rushed, not mechanical, and not heedless; it is intimate and sincere. When prayer reaches this level, it becomes a source of tranquility, a shield from sin, and a means of drawing closer to Allah long after the salām is given.
