How to Pray? Step by Step Guide to Prayer | Mohammad AlNaqwi 

I'm 20 and I've just converted a week ago bcoz of hard times but ever since I've been feeling very much positive and happy... Alhamdullilah

Thank you, I’ve been trying to figure out how to pray. I’ve converted to Islam 3 days ago and I’m still learning.

I’m 24 and left Christianity and converted to Islam…..Allah guided me and my sister………and now I perform daily five prayers and tahajjud…..hiding from my father locking my room……May Allah accept my Namaz and Dua……..

I converted over 20 yrs ago to Islam. I no longer practice (I was embarrassed about being Muslim) but I’m thinking about starting making my prayers during Ramadan 2024.

I am 21 just became Muslim today, I ask for Allahs guidance through my journey

Just started praying 3 days ago after a year of feeling an empty void in my soul. This video is very helpful thank u!!☺️

I'm a 19 year white British also an ex addict, I truly believe Islam is the key to a long and successful life I have spent over a year in Indonesia and gained many Muslims friends who have taught me a lot about Islam and I will soon do my shahada

I was born a Christian since 1992 i converted yesterday to Islam i thank my madam who directed to the right way ❤

i’m 15 and i’m ashamed i don’t know namaz and haven’t read much quran but now i am determined to try my hardest to be closer with Allah inshallah

I’m 12 years old and learning to pray and you made it easy for me to learn. Thank you for this video ❤️

I took my Shahadah on 30/06/2022. Alhamdulillah! I'm now set free and may Allah keep setting me free. Insha' Allah!

I have just recently reverted to Islam. Thank you for making this video so that I and others like me can learn to pray properly.

I am a revert and tommorow I am going to mosque for the first time, make dua for me . Allahu Akbar

My mother passed away 2015 the feeling is still raw miss her Soo much she was such a kind soft hearted person may Allah grant her janatul fardous please keep her in your prayer and DUAS🙏

As a convert to islam, this has really helped me straighten up my Salah. Thanks for the help brother, inshallah may you reach jannah

I am currently 18 years old and I was born and raised in sweden, my father is moroccan and my mother is swedish and so we spoke swedish in the household and I never learnt arabic. My father taught me how to play when I was little and also a few surah but I am ashamed that I have forgotten how to pray and what to say. He assumes that I know how to do it and when we pray together (My father prays all the time but I used to only remember and try to do it during ramadan) I go along with the movements but I have forgotten what to say, and I never told him or asked him since I am ashamed that I "faked" my prayers. I never really had any care about islam when I was a child but I have now gotten into it and I realise what it is all about and I want to be a good muslim. This video is such a help, thank you so much.

Hello and peace be upon you. I am 12 years old and called myself muslim for as long as i can remember but i never really prayed nor did i read the quran on a daily basis. I didn’t even know Sura al Fatiha by heart, only thing i knew was the Shahada. I then saw a Video about Islam. This inspired me to become religious more. This Happend about 1 year ago, i had this phase where i just watched Videos and studied. Now was this same phase but i knew that this will not bring me to Jannah. I thought: „If i can’t take my legs to the Prayer mat, how do i expect them to bring me to Janah?“. 2 days ago i wanted to pray but i could feel every pump of my heart and i had fear. But yesterday i did it again no matter the emotions and when i began all my fear went away. I felt only peace in that moment and every negative emotion went away, including the fear i had. It felt so good and peaceful that i did it 4 times. I would’ve done it the whole day but unfortunately i was interrupted. I prayed again now and i wanna become a better Muslim. Thank you.

I'm a Christian from Phillipines But I'm a Muslim 6months ago I did my shahada shukran to my employer her in Saudi for helping me to become a Muslim alhamdulliah 🙏

I am also 12 learning how to pray, this made learning easier for me. Thank you ❤️ Edit: I am now 13 and absolutely determined to pray and learn more about islam and the quran. I am ashamed I have not done much, but may Allah guide me the rest of the way. Insha’Allah I will become a better muslim. 🤍

This is the most detailed and comprehensive demonstration of the Salah I've seen yet! Very good job!! Assalamualaikum

I am very grateful that Mr. AlNaqwi made time to bless the masses by making this video. I was a practicing Muslim 2001-2003 and am now returning to the community for good. This is the perfect video to help me refresh my Muslim prayer life. So glad I kept my Holy Quran & Hijab wardrobe (which still fits nicely) these past 20 years. Thank you, and bless you sir. ~ Naiemah ~

I just became a new muslim thanks for this.... i think it will help me be a true christian🙏🙏🙏

I’m 25, I recited the Shahada today with sincerity. Chills within and eyes tearing up as I said it a few times. This is intimidating but already I feel so much relief and more love immediately. As if I’ve found what I’ve been looking for my whole life, for what’s been there the whole time. Alhamdulillah💚

I convert to Muslim yesterday at the mosque and now I jus wanna get closer with Allah so Im still new but I’m willing to learn a lot on this journey on being a Muslim

I cant stop the streaming of tears whenever in the presence in the lord of daybreak, yet I have observed that that's a good sign. there is a masjid within walking distance but I seem to get there after midnight. I thank you for your time making this video. even if I knew the correct way to speak, the words wouldnt compare to how much I thank you for your time making this video.
