Salah, also known as Salat or Prayer, is one of the five pillars of Islam and is a fundamental act of worship for Muslims. It involves the obligatory act of praying 5 times a day at set times, and is a direct means of communication with Allah.

“Khushoo' in prayer happens when a person empties his heart for it (prayer), and focuses on it to the exclusion of all else, and prefers it to everything else. Only then does he find comfort and joy in it, as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: '… and my joy has been made in salaah

Hadith of Jibreel tells us about Islam, Iman and Ihsan

Islam, Iman and Ihsan is the three stages in the path towards Allah.

1. Islam

The first is you force yourself and bring yourself to do those actions which you know that Allah wants you to do.

2. Iman

The second is iman where you are not only doing those actions, but you are strengthening your relationship with Allah (swt) and you’re beginning to taste the sweetness of your relationship with Allah

3. Ihsan

The third is Ihsan, which is to worship Allah as if you see Him, and even if you cannot see Him, you need to know that He sees you. So, you are moving in this path, this journey, towards the Divine.
