Why Can't I Stick to My Salah?
Hey everyone. I'm someone who really cares about my faith and I believe in Allah with all my heart. Honestly, I know this is the right path for me and what I need most. But I keep hitting these moments where I look back and feel guilty, especially about praying. We know we gotta pray five times a day, right? And it's really only a few minutes each time. Sounds easy enough, but... Deep down, I know being close to Allah brings peace and real success, and I crave that. But somehow, I find it super hard to actually do it consistently. Worshiping regularly feels tough. Sometimes it's my anxiety getting in the way, sometimes I just procrastinate, and sometimes I just can't keep it up long enough to make it a solid habit. What's weird is that I think about Allah constantly, yet I still struggle to pray on time. I don't get why it feels so heavy. It kinda makes me feel like there's something off about me. I deal with a lot of anxiety, and I know it's a test we all face, but it still feels overwhelming sometimes. I wonder why I keep drifting away from the right path even when I know exactly what's good for me. I just wanna get back on track, seriously. I want to be steady with my salah and feel that connection again, but there's something blocking me mentally and physically. I don't understand why I can't just do it, even though I truly, truly want to.
