Dealing with Parental Pressure on Prayer??
Assalamu alaikum, I wasn't sure what to title this, but lately I've noticed that a big reason I don't feel motivated to pray salah is because of the pressure from my folks, especially my mum. She keeps reminding me to pray, and if I don't, she treats it like I've committed something terrible or gives me a look. I get that salah is crucial, and I'm not denying that. The issue is, the constant nudges and her reactions make me resistant. Instead of feeling like it's a personal moment between me and my Lord, it turns into a task I just need to tick off. The more I'm pushed, the less I want to do it, and I end up feeling both guilty and annoyed. I still value my deen, but the pressure has made praying feel more like a burden than a peaceful act.
