How can a wife gently encourage her husband to start praying?

Salam alaikum, sisters. I need your thoughts. My husband, may Allah guide him, has been neglecting his salah lately. It truly worries me. What’s the best way for a wife to advise him without making him feel judged or pushed away? I want to remind him lovingly and keep our home full of barakah. Jazakum Allahu khairan.

Wa alaikum salam, sis. Maybe start by praying yourself where he can see you, and make dua for him. Sometimes actions speak louder than words.

I went through this. I just told him I miss praying together, it made me feel closer to him and to Allah. He started joining me slowly, Alhamdulillah.

Don't underestimate the power of a loving reminder after Fajr, like 'Ya habibi, I love when you lead us in prayer.' It’s all about the tone.
