Do we remember Allah as we should I know I don’t . In fact we should remember him all the time whilst we are sitting Laying down and standing. Allah (swt) tells us in a qudsi hadith.
Allah’s Messenger (sallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said:
Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, thus stated: I am near to the thought of My servant as he thinks about Me, and I am with him as he remembers Me. And if he remembers Me in his heart, I also remember him in My Heart, and if he remembers Me in assembly I remember him in assembly, better than his (remembrance) , and if he draws near Me by the span of a palm, I draw near him by the cubit, and if he draws near Me by the cubit I draw near him by the space (covered by) two hands. And if he walks towards Me, I rush towards him. [Sahih Muslim] .The first thing that we hear when we are born is the call to the prayer . I f we go through our daily lives without remebering Allah we are being ungrateful for all the blessings he has given us every day of our lives.
Allah is with us all through our days and we have Angels recording all our deeds and prayers. So let them record our good deeds and not the bad deeds that we do heedlessly or with intention.
“He who turns away from the remembrance of Rahman (Allah, the Compassionate) ,
We assign a Satan (Shaytan) for him, who becomes his intimate companion – and
turns such people away from the Right Path, while they think that they are guided aright.”
[az-Zukhruf - 43:36-37]When we come to the prayer we should do our utmost to concentrate and worship him as he deserves to be worshipped which is the hardest thing to do . As shaytaan comes and distracts us from our Salat and remembering Allah (swt).
Allah tells us to remember him
Allah said: “… worship Me and establish Salah for My remembrance.” [Ta-ha, 20:14].
