salah

Its late and i'm quickly jotting this down because i dont want to forget this feeling.

I just read the most amazing salah of my life. As everyone who reads salah is aware - it can be very hard to gain and maintain concentration during your salah and this continues to be a struggle throughout your life. Some manage to achieve very high levels of concentration (masha'allah) while the rest of us struggle in every salah.

The idea is to focus ur mind so totally on ur salah that everything else ceases to exist - i'm nowhere near that stage!

But today I managed to get so incredibly close!! I had this one rakah in Ish'a where suddenly I cud feel total peace and contentment enveloped me- serious, i mean envelop. Suddenly the whole of life made sense and I felt this incredible connection to my salah and to the words I was reading. The meaning of the surah became crystal clear and the whole point of salah was gloriously obvious. I felt, blissfully aware of the significance and importance of my salah.

It was the best, most content, most peaceful, most spiritual moment of my life.

Thank you Allah!!
