			Assalamu alaikum today I want to discuss slowing down in the month of Ramadan.
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:46
			What I mean by slowing down is slowing down in our acts of worship, and in specific slowing down our
prayer. Look, I know outside of the month of Ramadan, it's easy to feel like our prayer is just a
ritual, we need to get it done, get it over as quick as possible and get back to work or go back to
school and get back to doing whatever we were doing. Just get it out of the way. But in the month of
Ramadan, as our spirituality comes into focus, this is the time where we can work on our prayer as
well. And one of the ways we can accomplish that is simply by slowing down slowing down the prayer
as a whole, but also slowing down the specific aspects or the specific parts of the prayer. So
		
00:00:46 --> 00:01:24
			spending more time in every position of the prayer. So when we are in the record, spending more time
in record, letting our body settle into that position. Likewise, when we are incensed that letting
our body settle into that sense that also that means moving from one position to another position
slowly so going into the court slowly coming out of the record is slowly going into sense that
slowly coming out of the sense that slowly making a conscious effort to beautify the physical
aspects of our prayer. I know we make an effort to beautify other aspects of our prayer which
beautify our recitation and so on and so forth. But likewise, making the physical aspects of the
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:58
			prayer, the movements of the prayer, beautiful as well. Another way we can slow down our prayer,
what would help in slowing down our prayer is making sure that we have enough time to pray Our
prayer meeting, not waiting until the last minute to pray the prayer. So making sure there's enough
time so not delaying the huddle until just offset is about to come. We're not doing awesome, until
just momentum is about to come, for example. And actually the person who gave us this very specific
example, if I said I'm actually referred to this prayer, as a prayer of the hypocrite instead of
said, this is the prayer of the hypocrite, the one who waits until the sun is just about to set and
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:33
			then they quickly pick out for a cause of prayer law Yokota lafiya in their calendar. At first, it
doesn't remember a lot in these four articles, except for just a little bit. There's very little
time they're rushing to the prayer, they're trying to get it done. So there's no time to remember a
lot. There's no time to beautify the prayer. There's no time for the heart to be settled in this
prayer in this heart to really benefit from this prayer. You know, and I mentioned this point about
Ramadan before that sometimes we get caught up in numbers and amounts and so on and so forth. Our
priority in our bond should be just like our priority outside of the month of Ramadan and that is
		
00:02:33 --> 00:03:12
			our obligatory our fund prayers and back making the most of those fun prayers. So we shouldn't be
spending the most amount of effort in beautifying and perfecting our prayers. Before we ever turned
to the suddenness of the new iPhone and tada we had a family and obviously we can do both. That is
the best but our focus should be our prayers, making them the best, the most beautiful, the most
beneficial prayers possible. So take advantage of the spirituality of the month of Ramadan, take
advantage of the blessings of the month of Ramadan. We all know and understand that it is easier to
worship Allah in the month of Ramadan, so use this time to help beautify your prayer. Take your time
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:20
			when it comes to your father prayers, at the very least, and Allah has power to Allah knows best
take care of us and I'm on equal what I meant to lie or what I can do.
