    Just wanna say that we born Muslims also struggle with prayer, tajweed, hijab, etc - so don’t feel pressured if you are a revert. Our relationship with God is personal (and ongoing) and He is Most Merciful and Bountiful, so it’s not a competition with others, but with ourselves. All we have are our intentions and our efforts. The results are up to Allah swt.
    Here’s to challenging ourselves to be our personal best so we can all be with each other in heaven, iA. 🤲
    Let’s cheer each other on and keep it up, everyone! May we all be blessed with a successful Ramadan. Ameen. ✨

      @@TheWanderingQuinnFirstly congratulations on making perhaps the best decision in life. There is only one unforgivable sin, and that is associating partners with Allah, And Alhamd u llilah you are now past that. Just remember that all your deeds are judged based on your niyyah ( intention based in your heart). Rest assured that if your intention is pure, the creator is happy with you and you should have no fear.
      There are basically two rights (Haqooq).
      1. Haqooq Allah ( rights of allah). Like shahadah, prayer, fasting, hajj etc. Allah says that i may or may not forgive these on the day of judgement.
      2. Haqooq ul ibad ( rights of all living creatures). Allah says I will not forgive these on the day of judgement, only the affected may forgive, and on that day no one will forgive.
      The first cause to go to hell fire will be shirk and second will be haqooq al ibad.

I was a new Muslim just before covid but had been studying like you for about 8 months beforehand. I live in a small country town but we have quite a few Muslims here.Only 1 who is,like myself born here. We get together for BBQs and celebrations which I love,but it's distressing for me that I can't speak Arabic like all the women and so I feel a bit left out I suppose.

      Alhamdulillah on your new journey. But remember Allah is your guide and he will make the journey easy for you. Allah will never burden you with more than you can handle.
      If it was meant for you to speak Arabic then you will learn it, for it is what Allah has ordained. But that may happen next month, a year from now, maybe another 3years, who knows but Allah.
      But don't be disheartened for not speaking it because 90% of the worlds Muslims don't. And even those that do their Arabic is different from nation to nation, and from the Qur'an because the Quranic Arabic is the ultimate perfect Arabic which even the Arabs in Arabia do not speak normally.
      Jazakhallah.

    Prayers take years to reach a level one is almost satisfied with. Even kids, that are very receptive to learning take months/year to learn. so take your time. Intention is what matters, and prayers are a meeting with your Creator, checking in with the Ultimate 5 times a day keeps many things in perspective and helps in cleaning ones deed and thoughts, maybe gradually but certainly.
    Keep at it at a pace you are comfortable with. gauge your progress so that stagnancy is avoided.
    Stay Blessed, you are doing a wonderful job and these videos would prove helpful for other reverts in future inshAllah, and become a source of eternal rewards for you with Allah, here and hereafter.

      Afternoon(Zohar), Late Afternoon(Asr), and Night(Isha) prayer are almost same; 4 units.
      Pre-sunrise/Fajr (2 units).
      Post-sunset/Magrib (3 units).
      Surah Fatiha(link given) is mandatory in every unit.
      When bow down
      (Subhana Rabbi Al Azeem).
      When prostate
      (Subhana Rabbi Al Aala).
      Anything more than 2 units- one sits down for a little for Attahiyat(link given) after the 4th prostration.
      When long sitting at the last unit-
      again Attahiyat,
      Blessing upon prophet(s) & Abraham(a),

    Mashallah Ellie. May you continue to have a Blessed journey in Islam. I was born Muslim however only learnt to really pray almost a year ago... I watched the same RUclips videos. I found that having friends who are encouraging is so helpful. I made a friend 3 years ago who prays all 5 times a day and who's knowledge of Islam is so great that I felt ashamed at times. I tried my best to atleast pray Magrib.. Some days I didn't but I tried. I recently like a week ago started trying my hardest to pray 5times a day... I started with fajr and then I did Dhur and Asr and magrib... Sometimes I would fall asleep before Ishai but I was proud of myself for doing more than I have usually done and to be honest.... If I miss fajr now I actually feel different, like guilty in a way. But InshaAllah I am still trying my best and I hope I am praying right

    I didn't realize how hard it will be for you given that you were not taught these things as we were as kids. For non-muslims everything is new and they have to put in a lot of effort. But to make you feel a bit better, also muslims who don't do prayers as kids and start later in life, they still have to struggle a bit. Learning the Surah's by heart, and being careful not to forget the steps! So many times, I find myself also forgetting the steps and have to start all over again if I make a mistake! Basically once you have realized that you have made a mistake in you salat then you have to do it again properly. And using paper to write the surah and read them from the paper is perfectly fine!

    • @safiya8930
      @safiya8930 3 года назад +3

    Ellie, I have stumbled across your videos and want to congratulate you firstly on your shahada and your determination to learn about your faith with limited Muslims friends (not always a bad thing). I am a born Muslim and was taught in the mosque setting for several years. You made a point of learning what you are saying in your prayers, I will admit whilst I was taught the surahs and the mechanics of the prayers the interpretation was never really provided. In my 40’s I am now teaching my daughter and making notes for her to understand what she is saying which will give more meaning to her prayer. I think this is so important. I am also teaching her the Quran, and although we are Asian, her first language is English and she struggles too with pronunciation, I always encourage her and allhumduliliah she is learning slowly but most importantly correctly. I think your videos will be great for reverts like yourself and us who want to see our faith without the haze of culture. I enjoy listening to Islamic lectures in my spare time and can highly recommend Yasir Qadhi, Omar Suleiman and Green Lane Mosque. I wish you all the best and may god keep you steadfast in your faith Inshallah.
    Ps my Bil is a revert and I will sharing these videos with him too inshallah.

I remember a scholar telling me that the message of God came through slowly so that people didn't feel burdened. It's important that we cherish our good deeds. That's the beauty of Islam. Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that the best deeds are those which are consistent even if they are small. I wish you loads of blessings and true success and happiness of both worlds!

I needed a "booster" as I have prayed intermittently throughout my life as a muslim but I want to become closer to Allah and do prayer more regularly. Anyways, just wanted to say I am super-impressed by all the initiative you took to learn how to pray. I'm at the stage where I am learning the meanings of what I am saying during prayer, and also doing away with some of the prayer content that was taught incorrectly....may Allah pardon those who did not have the correct knowledge, ameen. May Allah bless you with more knowledge each day, and thank you for putting a "face" to the muslim, because so many people are intimidated by all the requirements of Islam and need to know that it is a lifelong lesson and that they don't have to jump in without getting their feet wet first.
