Hannah’s Daily Note

If you’ve given up on prayer and the thought of starting again overwhelms you, here’s what I want you to do:

Firstly remind yourself that ‘starting again’ doesn’t mean that you have to be perfect straight away. Remove the expectation that you will pray all 5 prayers, on time, every day, starting from now.

So here’s your permission to start small:

– Schedule a reminder in your phone for 3 minutes of connection every day for the next week. During these 3 minutes, find a quiet place to sit, facing the Qibla. Talk to Allah. Tell him your intention for reconnecting with him through prayer. Once you’ve completed this for one week, do this 2 times a day. Congratulate yourself for the progress you’re making.

– The following week, choose one of these times to replace with prayer. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but you are starting somewhere.

– From here, continue your progress each week – but keep in mind that the goal is consistency, even with small acts. Gradually build up towards regular, meaningful prayer.
