33 Ways of developing Khushoo in Salaah
By Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid
Salaah is the greatest of the practical pillars of Islam, and khushoo in
prayer is required by shareeah. When Iblees, the enemy of Allaah, vowed
to mislead and tempt the sons of Adam and said Then I will come to them
from before them and behind them, from their right and from their left
[al-Araaf 7:17, interpretation of the meaning], one of his most
significant plots became to divert people from salaah by all possible
means and to whisper to them during their prayer so as to deprive them
of the joy of this worship and cause them to lose the reward for it. As
khushoo will be the first thing to disappear from the earth, and we are
living in the last times, the words of Hudhayfah (may Allaah be pleased
with him) are particularly pertinent to us: The first thing of your
religion that you will lose is khushoo, and the last thing that you will
lose of your religion is salaah. There may be a person praying who has
no goodness in him, and soon you will enter the mosque and not find
anyone who has khushoo. (al-Madaarij, 1/521).
