Never miss your Salah
It’s wild how normal we’ve made it to skip or delay our Salah. I live in a non-Muslim country and lately I’ve been praying on time, no excuses. Every source says there’s no excuse except forgetfulness or sleep, and wallahi, I’m scared of being questioned if I miss Salah for things like being outdoors, guests, or work. So now I carry a prayer mat everywhere, find a quiet spot, and pray even in public, but everyone around me keeps discouraging it. They say, “Just delay it once” or “Skip it.” I know I’m not wrong, but it makes me wonder if I’m being too extreme. May Allah guide me and others to always put Salah first.
