Struggling with my prayers as a new Muslimah, need advice.

Salaam everyone, I recently reverted to Islam about a week ago, and honestly, I'm feeling a bit down because I haven't started praying regularly yet. It's mostly because I'm still learning how to do it properly-like, I've memorized Surah Al-Fatiha but I'm not sure what comes after that or if that's enough if my niyyah (intention) is sincere. I really, really want to at least begin with Fajr and Isha as a starting point. Islam and the Quran have given me a sense of faith I've never had before, so I'm kind of frustrated that I can't be better at this or feel less awkward during Jummah prayers. Any gentle tips for a sister trying to find her way?

Been there! Felt super awkward at first. My tip: find a trusted sister at the masjid and ask her to pray next to you and guide you quietly. Makes a huge difference.

Sister, welcome to the Ummah! Please don't be so hard on yourself. Even many born Muslims struggle with prayer consistency. Allah sees your sincere intention. Take it step by step.
