Why Are People Lazy to Pray? Here's the Explanation According to Syeikh Abdul Qadir Jailani
Praying shows that we, as servants, truly need Allah SWT.

Dream - Prayer is one of the worship rituals commanded in Islam. In fact, every daily activity is encouraged not to be separated from prayer. In prayer, a person shows themselves as a servant who always needs Allah SWT. As the Prophet Muhammad said: "I am dependent on the assumption of My servant towards Me, and I am always with him when he prays to Me." (HR. Al-Bukhari) In reality, there are still some people who are lazy to pray for various reasons.
"Although everything he desires can be achieved when he asks Allah SWT and follows His command. Here is an explanation of why people are lazy to pray as summarized by Dream through various sources."
The command to pray has been explained in the Al-Quran as well as in hadiths. In fact, through those evidence, the special privileges that will be obtained by praying to Allah SWT are also explained.
Surah Al-A'raf Verse 55 "Pray to your Lord with humility and a gentle voice. Indeed, Allah does not like those who exceed limits." (Quran, Al-A'raf: 55) Surah Al-Mu'min Verse 14 "So worship Allah, dedicating your religion to Him, even though the disbelievers dislike it." (Quran, Al-Mu'min: 14)
Hadith Narrated by Al-Hakim "The most important worship is prayer." (HR. Al-Hakim) Hadith Narrated by Ath-Thabrani "The weakest person among humans is the one who is weakest in praying, while the stingiest among them is the one who is stingiest in saying greetings." (HR. Ath-Thabrani)
There are several reasons why someone is lazy to pray. This is explained by Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jailani in the book Futuhul Ghaib.
Someone does not pray to Allah SWT because they think that everything has already been determined by Him. So, whether asked or not, it will definitely come. It is better to avoid such assumptions or thoughts. In this life, always remember to pray to Allah SWT. As Allah SWT said:
"Pray to Me, and I will answer your prayers. Indeed, those who are arrogant and refuse to worship Me will enter Hell in a state of humiliation." (Quran, Al Ghafir: 60) Praying itself is a form of worship and humility for a servant. However, if one refuses to pray, it is a sign of arrogance and forgetting one's identity as a servant of Allah SWT."
The second reason for not wanting to pray is because prayers are not answered. Such thoughts usually arise when someone has prayed, but Allah SWT has not granted their wishes. As a result, they do not want to pray again. In such situations, we should not give up our efforts and prayers. On the contrary, our prayers should become stronger, along with righteous deeds. Have faith in Allah SWT, that what we hope for will be granted.
Because Allah SWT knows better which is better for us and definitely knows when the right time to give it to us. So, do not worry, friend Dream.
