Struggling to Return to Regular Prayer - Need Advice, Assalamu Alaikum

@rehan93

Short tip - set a visible reminder note by your bed or fridge with your intention. Saw a big change after I added that and a tiny dua list. Progress, not perfection, brother.

I felt this so hard after moving cities. Find one mosque or online halaqa and stick to it. Even one brother to check in with made a huge difference for me. Don’t beat yourself up, gradual is fine.

Real talk: shaytan thrives on making you feel ashamed. Make lots of dua and start with one prayer at a time. I promised myself one sincere salah daily and built from there. It works if you stick to it.

Man, same struggle. I set phone reminders and prayed with a short dua beforehand. When I missed one I’d just pray it as soon as I remembered instead of spiraling. Little habits add up.

@khalidrun

I felt hypocritical too. What helped was learning about the mercy of Allah and forgiving myself, then making a plan: schedule, dua, and a brother to check in weekly. Little wins keep you going.

@aminator1

Been there. Try tying a prayer to an existing habit - like after your shower or before coffee. Also listen to short reminders or lectures when you commute. Helped me get out of numbness.

Brother, same boat a few years back. Start small: make intention, aim for just fajr and maghrib for a week, then add one. Consistency beats intensity. Dua and small steps helped me. You're not alone, keep trying.

Don’t worry about being perfect. I called an older neighbour who goes to masjid and asked to tag along, felt awkward at first but it became routine. Community matters more than motivation.
