Preparation for Ṣalāh, with Khushūʿ

🌿 Preparation for Salah with Khushūʿ (Humility and Focus)

🔹 What is Khushūʿ?

Khushūʿ is the state of calm humility, full attention, and presence of heart during salah. It means praying not just with the body—but with the heart and mind too.

It transforms ritual into meaningful connection with Allah.

Increases the impact of salah on your behavior and character.

Brings peace, clarity, and a sense of purpose leading to hikmah.

✅ Steps to Prepare for Salah with Khushūʿ

Sincere Intention (Niyyah)

Remind yourself: “I am standing before Allah, the Most High.”

Proper Wudu (Ablution)

Perform it with awareness—it’s a physical and spiritual cleansing.

💧 Prophet ﷺ said: “When a believer performs wudu, his sins are washed away…” (Muslim)

Avoiding Distractions

• Choose a quiet place, switch off your phone, and wear clean clothes.

Early Arrival

• Arrive early, sit, and make duʿā’. This calms the heart.

Understanding What You Recite

• Know the meanings of Al-Fatihah and key parts of the prayer to stay focused.

Visualizing Standing Before Allah

Take Your Time
