The Benefits of Praying in Everyday Life

Praying in everyday life is part of Allah's command. Islam also teaches to begin and end every activity with prayer. This can help facilitate and smooth out every activity carried out by Dream friends. Well, here are some benefits of praying in everyday life that Dream friends need to know as quoted from brilio.net:

Attaining the Mercy of Allah SWT

The first benefit of praying is to attain the mercy of Allah SWT. However, of course, in praying, one must have a good attitude, namely sincerity and paying attention to its etiquette. This is explained in Surah Al-A'raf verses 55 and 56 below:

أَدْعُوا رَبَّكُمْ تَضَرُّعًا وَخُفْيَةً ۚ إِنَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِينَ

Meaning: "Pray to your Lord with humility and in a soft voice. Indeed, He does not like those who exceed limits." And do not cause corruption upon the earth after its reformation. And invoke Him in fear and aspiration. Indeed, the mercy of Allah is near to the doers of good." (Surah Al-A'raf: 55 - 56)

Obtaining What is Desired

Praying is asking Allah SWT for what is desired. When Dream friends pray sincerely and sincerely and only hope for the pleasure of Allah SWT, God willing, what is desired will be granted by Allah SWT. This is in accordance with the following hadith:

"Every Muslim on the face of the earth who prays for something to Allah, surely his prayer will be granted by Allah, or Allah will keep him away from something evil, as long as he prays for something that does not bring sin or cut off mercy." (HR. Al-Tirmidhi)

Smoothness in All Affairs

By praying, Allah SWT will provide smoothness in everything that Dream friends are doing. If you are faced with something difficult, then through prayer, God willing, a way out will be given to be able to finish the problem. This is in accordance with the words of Allah SWT through Surah Gafir verse 60 below:

فَادْعُوا اللَّهَ مُخْلِصِينَ لَهُ الدِّينَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ

Meaning: "And your Lord says, 'Call upon Me; I will respond to you.' Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible." (Surah Gafir: 60)

Protected from Difficulties

In living this life, of course, humans will be faced with difficult things. However, in facing difficulties, humans still have Allah SWT as a place to seek protection. Well, praying is a way for Dream friends to be protected from difficulties. Even if you are facing a difficulty, prayer can provide peace and relief.
