It is wise and correct for Muslims to approach Allah (Glory be to Him the Most High) because they can receive more rewards in the present and in the future. This article will tell you how to build a closer relationship with Him.
Steps
Step 1. Read the Quran
Read it with devotion and concentration. Try to understand every word it contains, because it will be of great help to you in life and, of course, in the afterlife.
Step 2. Pray five times a day
Always pray right on time. Do not ignore any prayer and do not postpone it. When you feel the azan, be prepared to pray as soon as possible, trying to relax and forget about all the worries that are part of your life. Remember that at that moment you are with "Allah" and that He deserves your full attention.
Step 3. Behave with righteousness
Never lie and never steal, be friendly to the people around you, be courteous to your parents, keep your promises, always forgive and be kind.
Step 4. Don't commit sins
Do not insult your neighbor and do not harm them, do not postpone and do not ignore your duties. Remember that Islam prohibits any sexual activity outside of marriage.
Step 5. Cover up
If you are a woman, don't expose your body. Cover your legs and arms. Don't wear clothes that are too tight. Only the hands and face can be shown in public, although many women prefer to hide these parts as well.
Step 6. Respect the institution of "zakat" and give everything you can to those in need
Advice
- Never forget to pray. It is one of the fundamental pillars of Islam.
- Build a relationship with "Allah". Talk to Him when you are feeling down and when you are well. Tell him anything you want.
