The Beloved ﷺ described prayer as the “pillar of the religion”. As Muslims, we’re commanded to establish the five daily prayers. For many of us, the routine of it can lead us to becoming absent-minded as we perform them. Without presence, we fail to grasp the true significance of what it means to be in connection with our Lord.
In this episode the significance of prayer is elaborated based on the Hikam, or Aphorisms, of ibn ‘Atā-illah and the commentary on them by Sidi ibn ‘Ajībah.
