Quotes
In the khateeb's words
“five daily prayers in congregation we need to focus on it especially if you perform if you can perform daily prayers like you know with the congregation then you know this is easy to maintain your standard level of Iman”
“if you just do this practice with your children with your family members then it means there is a barakah because you are doing something which Prophet used to do”
“even it is a small amount one dollar in the sight of Allah this is very significant important”
Talk about it at home
For the dinner table
Ramadan has ended, but Allah has not, so our connection with worship should continue. The khateeb encouraged keeping a simple minimum: five daily prayers in congregation and a small daily portion of Quran with translation. Families can study tafsir together and revive the practice of a home halaqa. Morning and evening dhikr, along with even a small amount of regular charity, can help keep faith steady. The goal is sincere consistency, supported by asking Allah for the ability to continue.
